Elouise Lane Quadros
Oil Artists
Quadros paints in oil, starting with a medium tone for a background, and then quickly puts in lights and darks to find the contrast she is looking for. “I love the drama of high contrast and deep colors,” she says. She uses subtle blending and many layers of thin paint to build her final realistic images that shimmer with a wondrous translucence. She manages to capture that rare moment when the light is just perfect.

Peter Batchelder
Artist
Throughout my life I have had the benefit of living in different rural environments within New England. From the coastal landscapes of Massachusetts to the woods, mountains and farmlands of New Hampshire and Vermont I have experienced the differences in nature, geography and light in these varied environments. Childhood interests in architecture and archaeology have led me to consider the context of time-worn structures within the New England landscapes. I am fascinated on many levels when coming across a barn or seaside cottage.

Peter Fiore
American landscape painter
Artist's Statement
I am interested in making the simple profound, always searching for that universal moment in the world around us. I draw inspiration for my landscape paintings from many places, it comes from the trees and fields near my home in rural Pennsylvania along the Delaware River as well as my frequent visits over the years to New England.
The abstract marks that I make are used to interpret nature's tangle. Making visual sense and constructing order by structuring shape, form, tone, color and rhythm to create a palpable reality.
I like to visit a motif over and over again. I am especially drawn to the winter landscape. It is a time when the earth loses its leafy covering and reveals it's true self. Covered in snow, the world reflects light and creates a spectrum of colors that are both dramatic and beautiful.
The true subject in any of my paintings is light and how it defines and endlessly changes the landscape around us. For me, light is more than a visual tool, it is an emotional subject. It is through the manipulation of light – how it falls, changes, sculpts, colors and creates various moods on a subject – that intrigues and inspires me.

Rick Stockwell
Photographer at Large
I used to take photographs to use for my landscape paintings back when I painted in oils on canvas. But when digital cameras became available, and photoshop and home printers were affordable, I became fascinated with the endless possibilities that existed in what you could do to bring out the best in a photograph. Every photograph has what I believe to be it's unique form and presentation that best displays it's capabilities. Some are brilliantly colorful and want to show off their drama in a high gloss, giant photo, while others have the kind of contrast that lends it to being best as a black and white. Some shots are best presented as a photograph printed on matte, or gloss, or metallic paper, and then matted with the matt and color that best compliments it. A photograph matted in white looks very different from one matted in black.
