The Lodge at Woodloch Winter 09 - 2010
Nov 21 - Mar 12, 2010
 |
|
The current seasonal exhibit at the Lodge at Woodloch in Hawley Pennsylvania features Claudia Mengel and Helga Olsson, whose story is below.
CLAUDIA MENGEL
The endlessly inventive and exuberant Connecticut artist Claudia Mengel says: “My work comes from not looking, but experiencing the world around me, and then translating these visual and emotional perceptions. With every creation, there is a new discovery, a new problem, a new solution. Every time I approach the blank white space, I take a unique journey always unlike the last, and never like the next. It is what keeps me coming back.”
The artist’s fluidity with form and color, her placement and choice of reds that thrust and dance, juxtaposed next to quieter, cooler colors, create a dynamic harmony, the kind of that works well at the Lodge at Woodloch.
Claudia has an art degree from the Brainerd Art School at SUNY; her studies continued at the Art Students League in New York, the Silvermine Art Center, the Center for Contemporary Printmaking and the Darien Art Center, as well as with several private teachers. Currently she is studying with Robert Reed, Professor of Art at Yale. She also studies and works with Constance Kiermaier, a prominent New England artist, Master Printer Marina Anacona, and Master Printer Anthony Kirk, who has printed with major American artists including Helen Frankenthaler and Wolf Kahn.
HELGA OLSSON
The light and reflections on water, together with the few dry, stubborn leaves remaining on the trees, remind us of how one season folds into another. Winter is clearly upon us, and with the cool and warm colors of this image, we find a sacred quality and mystery that makes our eyes wonder and wander through this solemn stream along the woods, reminding us of continuity and timelessness.
Helga Olsson was born in Syrau, Germany one week before the start of WWII. At the age of 10 she came to America. After graduating from Teaneck High School and Beloit College, Wisconsin she moved to Closter in 1963 where she founded an art school in her home and taught for nearly 35 years. She has worked artistically with portraiture of children and then moved to still life and flower paintings. It was only after the death of her beloved dog Julie that she began to paint landscapes such as this image, at the Closter Nature Center where they took many walks together.
The artist says: “My strength has always been realism and I continue to feel true to this fundamental point of view, modernizing and reinventing the genre as I grow”.

THE LODGE AT WOODLOCH
May 30 - Sep 12, 2009
 |
|
The artists Nancy McNerney and Claudia Cameron are featured in our Spring through Summer exhibit at the Lodge at Woodloch Gallery.
Both artist's work are colorful and painterly. McNerney's decorative work includes birds and exotic interior landscapes or still life. Cameron's work focuses on the many layers, shapes and colors of food and other familiar objects.
Claudia Cameron: “My paintings are about my inner spirit being reflected through color, shape, and light. My playful nature is inspired by the outside world, still life, and abstract shapes. Acrylics are my primary media and I use paint either on canvas or paper. For my mixed media work, I often use Japanese paper and blend it with acrylic paint. I find most of my painting is done outside where landscape never fails to inspire me.” Claudia Cameron comes to her art through a background in art education, social work, family therapy and art therapy. She lives in Baltimore with her husband.
Nancy McNerney is known for her impressionistic yet fanciful style as portrayed in her paintings of dancers, flowers, and avianscapes. Always intrigued with the lush textures and vivacity of color found in tropical settings, Nancy has melded these motifs into her art, giving her work a sense of magic and wonder. Her paintings are found in private collections in London and Paris, Australia and the States. Displayed in a London exhibition, as well as venues closer to her home in Connecticut, she recently completed a solo show entitled "Art in Blooms." The exhibit was highlighted in the New York Times. After studying at St. Mary's College at Notre Dame, Indiana, the artist went on to develop her love of painting in France. She lives with her family in Connecticut. View Details
