During my travels, I feel drawn to flowers for their vibrant colors, tones and fantastic textures. Going through my photos I realized I took more pictures of flowers than people. Only my museum shots outnumbered them. I have even stopped the car so I could go out and take pictures of some vivid colors that caught my eye along the roadside.
I wanted to tell a story about artists and how we worked and thought and planned before we picked up a brush. My paintings start with one of my photos and devolve into a small painting and then into an abstraction of that painting. They are happy paintings that come out of a difficult time in my life and also in our country's life. I believe that you have to look at the brighter side of things and art will take you there
My background in art is strange. I was told as a third-grader that I could not draw and I took music lessons and I never had an art class. After taking a drawing-one class in a local college at the ripe old age of 52 and then transferring to U Conn where I graduated with a BFA Summa Cum Laude at age 58 and then on to my MFA at Vermont College at 60 years. After school, I reached out to Norwich Arts Gallery and have been a member since then.
DLO Events
SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE EVENTS
The Donald L. Oat Theater air conditioning system is a non-circulator Trane roof air system with high-efficiency Merv-13 filters which draws air at the roof level. In addition, we have multiple box fans with efficiency filters that circulate the air within the theater so that there are no stagnant areas.
Our volunteers wear masks and we ask our patrons to please wear masks as well when entering the DLO. Our seats are distanced from the stage and seating is spaced out for your comfort. The DLO is thoroughly cleaned before the performance. On the night of the event another cleaning is done including washing down chairs and tables. This is also done after the performance. There are hand sanitizers for your use as well. We want you to be very comfortable while enjoying the performance in our theater.
