Through the eyes of artists

Minna Resnick

My work has always addressed issues confronting women. Words and images common to one generation may be unknown to another. My work examines the changing nature of experience over time and aging, and comments on expectation and reality, the ideal and the everyday, and the debate which continues to occur when women confront themselves and […]

Marika Briggs

I invite you to accompany me down the path to my dedicated workshop, where I turn found local wood into graceful functional art. I love to share the resulting beauty of turned wood, while still giving the admirer a moment to consider the origin and path the wood took to reach its new form. I […]

Graham Ottoson

I grow gourds and turn them into lamps and other functional works of art.

Marcy Baker

My work bridges the versatility of monotype printmaking with the structure of painting, each informing and influencing the other. This conversation fuels my technique, which includes transfer and resist applications of paint and ink using stencils, printing blocks, and relief plates. I also create collage papers through hand printing and acrylic glazing methods, and incorporate […]

Monica Franciscus

Using repurposed plastic car bumpers otherwise headed for landfills I create colorful sculptures that can be inside or outside. These parts, originally designed to withstand the elements, are highly engineered, aerodynamic with metallic colors that take on new life, no longer resembling an automobile. The towers are illuminated on the inside with solar lights symbolizing […]

Samite Mulondo

Samite is a world-renowned recording artist who, when not in his music studio, is either in his photography studio or his woodshop. His photographs of Africa, Ithaca, and points in between bring the viewer into his world and the moments that touch his soul. Each of Samite’s unique hand-carved bowls is an heirloom piece that […]

Carol LaBorie

Textiles, fiber, and paper are my primary mediums. When you visit my studio this summer, I will be making handmade paper from locally foraged plant fiber that I will incorporate into two- and three-dimensional art with my own photographs of the local landscape.

Annie Sheng

I am a Finger Lakes based visual artist who specializes in bold acrylic, gouache, and sumi ink paintings, often speculative and narrative in nature, as well as other media, such as ceramics, found objects, and digital art. I received my Ph.D. in Anthropology at Cornell University in 2022 and my paintings reflect my interest in […]

Ethel Vrana

My early impressionistic landscapes have evolved into abstract paintings, inspired by the fundamental shapes and colors in nature. I enjoy exploring new techniques using oil and acrylic paints, pastel sticks, transparent inks, layered painting, and collage.

Diane Newton

The work I will show of Ithaca are drawings in pastel on black Arches paper—44″ horizontally 30″ vertical.
