Exhibiting Artists

Foundational elements of my past education in Graphic Design and my present experience as an Art teacher influence every aesthetic decision I make. My earlier work is a direct translation of that design background. You can see it in my focus on layout, composition, and my use of numbers and pattern. For the past 5 years I have been teaching art full time at the elementary level. That experience has given me the freedom to explore color and processes in an entirely new way, through the eyes of a child. My more recent work is often more about the process and learning how to be mindful of creating in that moment. I enjoy bringing my passions into my art through subject matter as well as my use of recycled materials. The repeated floral motif in many of my works represents my love of nature and gardening and I will often use my old artwork and sketches to create weavings and collages. I never quite know what I will be creating next! I will even paint my husband’s shoes! 

Pam Frampton has enjoyed more than 40 years of lake life including swimming, boating, walking, golfing and most importantly, sharing her lake cottage with family and friends.  Through the years she has marveled at the quiet beauty of rural Indiana and has tried to capture some of that beauty in her painting.  It is her wish that her work will resonate with other Hoosiers and "lake people."

 it has grown to encompass many other materials as well. 

   As a child, I was attracted to jewelry-making with shiny beads and flashy findings. This hobby stayed

with me for my lifetime. But as I approached retirement from a nursing career of 45 years, I began to

explore more opportunities for artistic expression. Once I discovered polymer clay, I was hooked. There

are so many things you can do with it! I admit to no formal training in the arts but have had a fascination

for the art others create. My art is the result of watching dozens of skilled craftspeople on YouTube, the

experience of trial and error, and a passion for color, pattern, texture, and light that bring happiness into

the world. I love the idea of giving new life to old items so I repurpose whenever I can. Many of my

materials come from thrift stores. Another motivator for me is making usable art, making everyday

items more interesting and enjoyable. Beautiful art sparks a place in your brain and your heart. My hope

is to provide that spark for others.

 I like to create art that moves you to feeling. any feeling. Art that invokes a reaction stirs our senses and keeps us alive. I’ve always been ‘artsy’ but decided to expose my art to others in 2022. I love to create custom pieces that make you happy.             

 My  mother instilled the love of photography in me.   I mostly photograph  landscape, trees, and interesting sights.  I like the way light and  darkness play with each other. I usually do not edit my pieces so what I  see is what you get!  I love printing in unusual methods--canvas and metal for example. 

Sondra has been an artist most of her life. From the time she was a child she enjoyed drawing. While living in New Hampshire in the 90's she bought a floor loom and learned to weave. After moving to Indiana, she dabbled in ceramics for several years and then fell in love with fused glass when she took a class at the ceramic studio. Sondra now exclusively works with fused glass making glass art, jewelry, flowers,  dishes and more.

Beverly Seese was a Home Economics and Music teacher on the West Coast before moving to Delphi 25 years ago. She works mostly with fabric and fiber art; quilts, knit ornaments, suede, and beads. 

An artist since childhood, Arlene has fin-tuned her skills through classes with Famous Artists School and Purdue University. She creates 2D art in a variety of mediums on a variety of surfaces. 

    As a seamstress and knitter, I have always been drawn to cloth and fiber.  Weaving allows me to combine these passions.  I play with fibers, colors and weave structures to create handwoven items for your home as well as pieces for your wardrobe.  

A retired Art and French teacher, Wyndham has encouraged many students to pursue their passion for the arts. She exhibits beautiful weavings and scarves of hand-spun wool as well as custom jewelry.
