“Spring Awakenings” by Janet Fink

Janet Fink
“I have a bachelor’s degree in painting and art education from Rhode Island School of Design and the University of Maryland. I needed a steady career and got a Masters Degree in Occupational Therapy at Columbia University. While working with special needs children, I incorporated the mediums of paint, pet therapy and drawing to help children of all abilities to learn to understand their feelings and develop their cognitive and motor skills.
——————-
I have had my art in the East End Arts Gallery, The Guild in East Hampton, the Old Town Arts Guild, the South Street Gallery and Fiedler Gallery in Greenport. I have won people’s choice awards and honorable mentions in juried art shows. I have been completely inspired by the light and colors of the farms and bodies of water that surround me. My focus has been landscapes, but sometimes I just use the landscape as a backdrop to explore a more abstract vision. My personal vision is to utilize a wide palette of colors to create and express inner feelings and to evoke feelings in the viewer about nature.” – Janet Fink

Adele Wallach
“Inspired by my best friend Marshall, I began taking photographs when I was 15 years old and in high school. My Konica rangefinder was a constant companion and together we generated more rolls of film than I can count. Through the years photography has been my way to find peace and enjoy all the beauty the world has to offer.
——————-
In 2016 I retired after 25 years teaching special needs students of all different abilities. It was an extremely rewarding job and it gave me the opportunity to teach my students how to use a camera and take pictures of their world and how they perceived it.
——————-
Retirement has been a wonderful gift to photograph every day. To be able to run out at sunrise and sunset, and witness the amazing light over Riverhead and The East End. Exploring the North Fork back roads, and the Hamptons’ beaches and marshes has been amazing. It’s a gift that keeps on bringing me hope and joy.
——————-
My work has been shown at The East End Arts Council for both Member and Juried Shows. I have won Honorable Mention for a piece I submitted. I have also exhibited at the Fieldler Gallery and Wm. Floyd Library in Greenport, the Mattituck-Laurel Library, and the Cutchogue-New Suffolk Library. I won People’s Choice at a Juried Show at The Old Town Arts and Crafts Guild in Cutchogue as well as two other shows there in the past 3 years.” – Adele Wallach
