MILFORD, PA — The ARTery Gallery’s June exhibit, titled “A Glimmer of Nature,” emphasizes the love of nature through art. An artists’ reception will be held on Saturday, June 8 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Retired teachers Scott and Debbie Helfand express their artistry through clay, wood, glass and steel. Printmaker Carol Ann Lyons embraces the natural world with her current paintings and prints of birds. Together these artists provide a wide array of unique gifts and treasures that are featured throughout the gallery year-round.
The Helfands promote environmental stewardship by using raw and natural materials, often reclaiming, recycling and repurposing ‘found’ materials to create pieces that reflect their affection for the natural world. Debbie enjoys working in clay and wood, sometimes with whimsical themes. Scott combines the rustic beauty of steel and wood, stoneware clay and glass in his aesthetically functional works.
Carol Ann Lyons is currently an art therapist in private practice and has been an artist and printmaker for over 37 years. Owner of By the C Press, she is a professional conservator of books and artwork on paper. Her favorite experiences with the natural world in a simple moment of time, or “glimmers,”—those micro-moments in the day that give her a feeling of joy, happiness, peace or gratitude.
