David Tanych
View
this Collection
“Size matters,” according Vermont metal sculptor, David Tanych. Interested in welding and the properties of metal, David attended two summer sessions in blacksmithing at the Penland School of Crafts in North Carolina, where he began to connect to a much different medium than wood. Intrigued and inspired by the strength and flexibility of steel and gaining more mastery over the metal, David began building huge steel outdoor sculptures. Tanych is excited and challenged working in this size, using a torch that melts steel. When complete, the pieces are acid etched, allowing them to rust, which adds another dimension to their unique charm. When seen from a distance, the huge objects materialize into view, bringing the observer along. And when seen up close, the viewer immediately notices the meticulous attention to detail. He finds himself responding to the positive encouragement he receives from the public, inspiring him to bigger and bolder experimentation with the properties of steel. For more information contact Vermont Fine Art Gallery, Gale Farm Center, 1880 Mountain Rd.#3, Stowe Vt 802-253-9653.

Rory Jackson
View
this Collection
Vermont is where I grew up and is my native land. Returning to the green mountains each summer to paint the landscape continues to be a main of focus in my practice. In the winters my family and I head to our quiet home in Ghana, where I paint seascapes and village scenes full of boats and vibrancy of life. The balance of the two places keeps my interest in subject matter fresh, while marking each year’s success and progress. Though it has become my work now and carries with it a pressure to provide, it has added an intensity of focus to push my work to a new level. I think Robert Henri best states my feeling of what it means to move forward as an artist when he says, “all outward success, when it has value is but the inevitable result of an inward success of full living, full play and enjoyment of ones faculties.” For more information contact Vermont Fine Art Gallery.
