A tattoo by Northeast Kingdom artist Katlin Parenteau<\/strong> graces the cover of Vermont Art Guide<\/em> #6. Born and raised in Vermont, you may have seen Parenteau live painting to bands around the Kingdom.<\/p>\n We offer a round up of new art galleries<\/strong> in Rutland, Stowe, and Bellows Falls: a sign that Vermont’s art scene continues to grow.<\/p>\n James Peterson<\/strong> was inspired by the magical ice caves of Kamchatka in Siberia to make his luminous Dreamcatcher<\/em> installation at Spruce Peak and Denise Beaudet<\/strong> was inspired by women activists from around the world. We report on her life-size portraits at Gallery in the Woods in Brattleboro.<\/p>\n We report on a group of people working to create the Darshana Bolt Memorial Sculpture and Sketching Garden<\/strong> on Burlington\u2019s Waterfront. Ryan Mays\u2019 Mouse<\/em> sculpture<\/strong> is inspiring changes at Kellogg-Hubbard Library in Montpelier. And at the Great Hall in Springfield<\/strong>, an art exhibition reflects on our National Parks and wild lands.<\/p>\n The heart of the issue is a special two-part feature, Artists to Watch<\/strong>. Part of Vermont Art Guide<\/em>‘s mission is to showcase Vermont artists. We recruited five guest curators working in various corners of the state and asked them to tell us what artists they are watching in the coming year. Part one appears in this issue. Part two will appear in the next one. A parallel exhibition takes place at the Vermont Arts Council Spotlight Gallery in Montpelier starting in March.<\/p>\n Who’s Watching Who<\/strong> Curiosities & Activism: Janet Van Fleet<\/strong><\/p>\n Entering a Timeless Realm, Vibrant Yet Restrained Palette: Julia Jensen<\/strong><\/p>\n Dialogue Through Image Making: Renee Greenlee<\/strong><\/p>\n Light and Airy Abstract Painting: Caroline Tavelli-Abar<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Beautiful Mess of Cultures & Epic Landscapes: Vanessa Compton<\/strong><\/p>\n Folk Color as Vibrant as the Stories: Pamela Smith<\/strong><\/p>\n Dialogue and Contemplation: Chris Curtis<\/strong><\/p>\n A Thousand Remembered Moments: Hannah Morris<\/strong><\/p>\n Childhood, Self, and Aging: Jason Galligan-Baldwin<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Meditative Geometric Abstraction and Color: Sherri Rigby<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n I Ching-Inspired Symbolic Landscapes: Elizabeth Nelson<\/strong><\/p>\n The Alchemy and Gestalt of a Ninety-year-old Environmental Artist: Pat Musick<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Talismanic Energy Beyond Formal Beauty: Paul Bowen<\/strong><\/p>\n In Vermont Art Guide<\/em> #7, we will feature Jean Cherouny<\/a> | Robert Gold<\/a> | Erika Senft Miller | Angelo Arnold | Sam Talbot-Kelly<\/a> | Bonnie Baird | Rose Umerlik<\/a> | Hope Burgoyne<\/a> | Stephanie Kossmann<\/a> | August Burns<\/a> | Rodrigo Nava | Anthill Collective.
