Art at Tilton

I am pleased to be showing mostly recent oil paintings at the Tilton Library. Some of you probably know my daughter, her husband and family, Raloon and Grant, Maddie and Soren Bialek and Pat Thompson who live nearby. I live in Vermont, and also spend time in NYC and South Deerfield. I love drawing and painting and have been doing it since I was six, never stopped. I have a Bachelor of Fine Art from Cooper Union and studied at the New York Studio School. I have taught art from kindergarten up thru graduate college level for thirty five years most recently at Johnson State College in Vermont. My gallery is in NYC, Blue Mountain Gallery, where I will have a show in May, 2017. You might have seen works I showed with Jane Trigere at The Arts Bank. and at the Deerfield Gallery a few years ago. I almost always paint from actual life, that is how I find the most interesting forms, however I also love other kinds of art and things people make. Art is an idea in a sensuous form.

Mystery Book Discussion – The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency

This first novel in Alexander McCall Smith's widely acclaimed The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series tells the story of the delightfully cunning and enormously engaging Precious Ramotswe, who is drawn to her profession to help people with problems in their lives. Immediately upon setting up shop in a small storefront in Gaborone, she is hired to track down a missing husband, uncover a con man, and follow a wayward daughter. But the case that tugs at her heart, and lands her in danger, is a missing eleven-year-old boy, who may have been snatched by witchdoctors.
