Nature Works
Reception on Saturday, June 14th from 6-9 PM
For June, the ARTery Gallery in Milford features the work of three artists who are very popular with customers: potters Debbie and Scott Helfand and printmaker Carol Ann Lyons. Their month-long show is entitled “Nature Works.”
Retired educators, Debbie and Scott Helfand have both been working with clay for nearly 25 years and express their deep affinity for the natural world by exploring new techniques. Their work is inspired by their love of nature and their desire to promote environmental stewardship, promoting peace, equality, inclusion, and a cleaner and healthier environment. Through design and decoration, they create pieces that inspire others to join them in protecting the environment. Debbie works in clay and wood, often with natural elements and whimsical themes. Besides working in clay, Scott works with a variety of media including glass, wood and steel, often combining materials to create aesthetically functional pieces.
Carol Ann Lyons is currently a private practice art therapist and has been an artist, and printmaker for over 38 years. She is a professional conservator of books and artwork on paper. Her clients include Simon & Schuster, New York Botanical Garden, Sony, and lovers of fine art and printmaking in the metropolitan area. Her favorite experiences with the natural world in a simple moment of time are those micro-moments in the day that give her a feeling of joy, happiness, peace, or gratitude. Her work is allegorical as she explores the relationships she creates and what the natural world encounters within their environment. Carol’s recent prints and paintings are expressed by using acrylic paint on wood and paper. Her training as a professional printmaker leads her recent realistic series as a prerequisite to her future woodcuts and monotypes.
You can meet Debbie and Scott Helfand and Carol Ann Lyons at their opening reception on Saturday, June 14th from 6-9 PM, which includes refreshments. The ARTery welcomes the public to this free cultural event. The exhibit will be on display from Thursday, June 12th through Monday, July 7th.
The ARTery Gallery, located in the historic Forest Hall, is a cooperatively owned and operated fine art gallery, serving the regional artists and art lovers since 1996. The gallery features a wide array of artistic talent ranging from traditional oil, watercolor, and photography to sculpture, jewelry, textiles, pottery, and collage.
The Joy of Summer
Reception on Saturday, July12th from 6-9 pm
The ARTery Gallery's month-long July exhibit “Joy of Summer” features the remarkable paintings of acrylic artist Barbara LaTorre and the popular paper sculptures of award-winning artist Chris Hobbs.
Barbara LaTorre, a native of Sussex County, is mostly self-taught. Her love of nature radiates from every landscape, floral, and animal painting she creates. She continues to study and explore new techniques from highly respected artists. As a result, her most sought-after style of painting is her acrylic impasto, a technique formed with palette knives, gloss gel, and modeling paste. These highly textured paintings create an unusual 3 D type of effect that her collectors love. It’s her bold use of colors along with dramatic texture that draws the viewer in and invites closer inspection of these unique works of art.
​
Chris Hobbs has a long, successful history with the ARTery as he was one of the first members when the ARTery was formed in the 1990s. Back then, he created paper games and puzzles. But soon his work blossomed into the intricate paper designs he creates today—designs that are fully encased in framed glass enclosures that put the finishing touch on his amazing craft. To create his sculptures, Chris forms each small geometric piece by hand using pen and ink. Then, each paper cutout is meticulously placed upon others until his 3-D creation stands as a masterpiece of angles and shapes.
