WELCOME NEW MEMBERS
ROSA COLÓN
Rosa E. Colón, a 1985 graduate of Colombia’s Jorge Tadeo Lozano University (Interior Decoration), studied Architectural Expression at the National University of Colombia, while taking private classes in oil painting. Emigrating to the U.S. in 2000, she was taught by Florence-trained master artist Enzo Russo, participating in mixed media/collage classes at Norwalk Community College. Her work has been featured in a variety of solo and group exhibitions throughout the tri-state area’s galleries, corporations and universities since 2002, and she has curated several shows, including Hispanic Heritage Month at Shackler Gallery, and “Flower Perfume” at Arte Inc.  in New Haven. She is one of the founding members of Liber-art.org, the Stamford-based art collaborative art group, has conducted many workshops, has been a juror for several art competitions, and has donated her work to several social and civic organizations including, but not limited to Literacy Volunteers, Laurel House, Regional Hospice of Western Connecticut, and the Beardsley Zoo. Rosa writes that her floral-themed portrayals "blossom with the passion and praise of nature as connoted by my familial roots, national origin and my inextricable linkage to, and engagement with, my natural surroundings." Her skill captures significant moments inspired by her fascination with nature’s multifarious forms, labyrinthine shapes and vibrant colors. Her work, which primarily features oils, pressed flowers and leaves, watercolor and cold porcelain; embodies a multihued, hyperrealist style that emphasizes her character and personality. Rosa is currently a member of the board of the Stamford Art Association, and the Loft Artists Association, is a private art teacher-mentor, and a watercolor art instructor at Stamford Public Schools’ Office of Adult & Continuing Education. See Rosa's website, and Facebook page.
CONNIE MANNA

Connie Manna was born and raised in New York, earning her BFA from the School of Visual Arts, where she was inspired and influenced by the illustrators and painters, Marshall Arisman, Gil Stone, Carl Titolo and Mary Heilmann. As a freelance illustrator, she worked for medical magazines, advertising agencies, book publishers, general interest magazines and computer software companies. She has had several solo shows, and has also participated in several group exhibitions in New York and the tri-state area, as well as in Washington DC. Currently based in Stratford, Connie is an Art Instructor at the Guilford Art Center, as well as a Continuing Education Art Instructor for the Stratford Board of Education. She comments that her paintings, "hearken back to a time when our society was driven more by human experience than virtual reality. Inspiration springs from observing the world around me and injecting each scene with a sense of memory - both personal and collective. Extremes of light, dark and shadow define the subject and conveys a distinct mood, much like the works of Edward Hopper or Rene Magritte." She says that her process usually begins with inspiration from a particular place – somewhere she has visited, photographed, recalled or imagined: "That which inspires me quite literally stops me in my tracks. I draw a series of rough sketches and then create the subsequent painting by reinterpreting the scene, defining the mood, and capturing the feel of a specific moment." Connie says she finds contemporary life to be rushed, so she intends her paintings to provide an opportunity to slow down and take pause: "The painting process calms my spirit, and a sense of quiet introspection and reflection is passed on to the viewer." See Connie's website.

DOROTHY ROBERTSHAW

Designer, color and renovation specialist, and Westport-based artist, Dorothy Robertshaw has been a self-employed interior designer since 1983. Passionate about art from earliest childhood, she works joyfully in a wide range of art media, moving effortlessly among oil, acrylic, encaustic wax, pastel, wood, glass and mixed media to achieve her results. Deeply inspired by nature, Dorothy paints from her imagination to create the richly textured, exuberantly colorful water and landscapes she sees in her mind's eye. Since her first exhibition in 1968, Dorothy has created and sold her works internationally. That creative fluidity in Dorothy's art practice inspires her work as an interior designer, a career she has enjoyed for 43 years. She graduated cum laude in Interior Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology and is an accredited member of the American Society of Interior Design (ASID). "As both an artist and an interior designer, I feel that art is the center jewel of a room. Sometimes my design work flows from a signature piece of art; sometimes it becomes the perfect completion to an all over ode to color, content and form." Dorothy is a member of the Saint Philip Art Guild (SPAG) and the Westport Arts Center. See her Instagram page.

MaryEllen says, "The idea of Thin Places became increasingly resonant for me over the last several years as I noticed how often a special location, a place of solitude, a place of transcendence, a Thin Place, would figure in the stories of friends and acquaintances, especially when they faced challenges or crises or simply needed escape.”
Gwen Hendrix has some of her rich, abstract fiber paintings and marbling on show in North, East, Space, Time, opening at the Schelfhaudt GalleryApril 5, 5:30-7:30pm.

OTHER NEWS
DAILY PLINTH
THE NEW YOUTUBE SITE FOR THE ARTS?

ArtNet News reports that a new online video start up The Daily Plinth is vying to be the art-world version of YouTube. The channel seeks to aggregate and promote art-themed videos that might otherwise fall through the cracks of the internet. “I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had this conversation with clients, about how they’re making videos, and getting great response when they put the content on their own website and social channels,” says co-founder and publisher Cornell DeWitt. “But when tossed into the gaping maw of YouTube, it disappears.” 
And with that, the idea for a platform for art-themed video content was born. More from the ArtNet report: "The site will post videos that fall under a different theme each day of the week. Monday, for example, will be dedicated to museum exhibitions; Wednesday will be dedicated to artist studio visits; and Friday will host market-themed content. (Longer form videos including talks, lectures and mini-documentaries will wisely be reserved for Saturday.) Each month, a guest editor (curator, collector, writer, etc) will make tailored selections for the site. The venture is self-financed, DeWitt says, with “a modest amount of private investment.” (The other partners wish to remain anonymous.) Daily Plinth will not sell ads, but will accept payment for promoted posts and sponsored content. The rates for promoted content will range from around $100 to $5,000. 
DeWitt has worn many hats in the art world, including as a dealer and as an art-fair director (he was the director of Pulse from 2010 to 2013). He also worked in business development for artnet News’ parent company, artnet Worldwide. The first public video of the day was a fascinating compilation of “vault” footage from pioneering content producer Art21. The eight-minute clip is packed with enticing shots of artists in the studio describing their process, including Matthew Barney, Louise Bourgeois, Kerry James Marshall, Bruce Nauman, and Sally Mann. As the site grows, DeWitt hopes to prove there is an audience for this material and motivate galleries, museums, and other art-world denizens to produce more and better quality video. Daily Plinth “plays very much into this Instagram world,” DeWitt says. “What we’re trying to do is just pull it back a little bit more. We want to start to bring people back from this hyper-short attention span and provide a bit more engagement.”
CT OFFICE OF ARTS
ARTISTS FELLOWSHIP AWARDS ANNOUNCED

The Artist Fellowship Program of the CT Office of the Arts recognizes the artistic excellence of individual Connecticut artists in a variety of disciplines and allows these artists the opportunity to pursue new works of art and to achieve specific creative and career goals.
