ARTISTS + PHOTOGRAPHERS

Jeff Barrett, Whistling Bird Designs, Monroe 04951
whistlingbirddesigns.com
Using recycled boards from barns and woodsheds, along with found objects and hand-forged metal, I craft each piece one at a time. These are my versions of old paintings, weathervanes and theatre sets for birds and fish.

Bo Bartlett
bobartlett.com
"Bo Bartlett is an American realist with a modernist vision. His paintings are well within the tradition of American realism as defined by artists such as Thomas Eakins and Andrew Wyeth. Like these artists, Bartlett looks at America’s heart—its land and its people—and describes the beauty he finds in everyday life. His paintings celebrate the underlying epic nature of the commonplace and the personal significance of the extraordinary.”

CATQUAT
Cat Quattrociocchi, catquattrociocchi@gmail.com
catquattrociocchi.net
Cat Quattrociocchi creates jewelry and small sculpture using a variety of materials. Her design process is often guided by these materials—she enjoys making discoveries by exploring their physical capabilities / limits. In addition to everyday jewelry & statement necklaces, Cat has had the privilege of working on a number of custom projects, many of which involved turning old jewelry into new jewelry (by way of melting and hammering). Most recently, Cat has launched a line of mobiles which she likes to think of as jewelry for your living space.

Betsy Eby
assist@betsyeby.com, betsyeby.com
In her paintings, Betsy Eby fuses the line between the musical and the visual composition. A classically trained pianist, she seeks in her work what Rothko described as "the place where music lives.” The layers and gestures of her paintings evoke musical spaces and rhythms while drawing on patterns found in nature.

Buzz Masters
P.O. Box 448, Deer Isle, Maine 04627
bmastersc@gmail.com, buzzmastersstudio.com
My work is an investigation of the malleable nature of memory, what we hold onto and what do we leave out in order to make our story. I use mixed media on wooden panels which allows for much flexibility, giving endless potential to heavily layer materials to make a complex surface.

Tandem Glass Gallery is a two-person operation: Terrill Waldman and Charlie Jenkins. We named our company after the two-seated style of carriage in which two horses are harnessed one before the other. It’s indicative of how we work: switching roles as leader or risk taker as needed. We have individual styles, yet we collaborate on some of our collections.
