Jane Cooper

Artist and designer, Jane Cooper, graduated from Denison University with a BA in Theatre. Post working professionally on Broadway, she focused on design and fine art. In describing her art, Cooper states, “Painting is like theatre. In my life, the two are inexorably linked. They are worlds I move between. Process, character and light. Color, form and performance. For me, it is blue. I cannot leave it aside. It is the color pervading all memory. The blue of Delft, the murky indigo of the creek by our house, the lakes of Michigan, sapphire seas around New Zealand, the blue of…

Margaret Dean

Margaret B. Dean has recently been exploring subject matter that is quite different from those that have actual references in the visual world. These abstract pieces have been challenging but also liberating. The process often utilizes not just brushes to make their mark, but also other tools such as palette knives, bits of fabric, plastic wrap or Q-tips. They present color harmonies, textures and movement and invite the viewer to enjoy a journey into the beauty of a different world. With a formal art education from a small liberal arts college in New Rochelle, NY, Dean was exposed to many facets…

Margaret Ulecka-Wilson

Pottery by Margaret Ulecka-Wilson celebrating our connection with the Earth. Manipulating and displaying the resources of the earth has been a revelation and inspiration since she first felt the soft form of clay and then held the finished creations up to the light. The ability to create the form imagined, combined with the variability and unexpected results of the process delight and exasperate her with each unique and special piece! Originally from Poland, she follows the artistic traditions of her father, who was a celebrated painter in Warsaw. His love of the town and countryside of his native land held…
