Lesia Sochor – Brooks, ME (web)
Painter
"Stories" | Oil on Canvas 19x24"
Artist Statement: "My paintings reflect the surroundings and events that affect my life. This current series was inspired by my mother-in-law's sewing drawer. I was reminded of my own mother's wooden spools and the connections I felt to the women of my family who all sewed. A spool of thread, a humble form of utilitarian simplicity is an icon whose history chronicles stories of necessity, practicality, fashion poverty, labor and sweat. From one generation to the next, the familiar spool stirs personal recollections and family stories. In further exploring this image, I have found it rich in metaphor conveying personal beliefs. What began as an exploration of family evolved into connections with all of humanity, crossing all cultural borders. We share a 'common thread' which sews us into a fabric called the world." --Lesia Sochor

Jean Noon – Springvale, ME (web)
Sculptor
"Solar 1" | Steel and Bronze Wire, Glass | 24.5"X10"X10"
Artist Statement: "Being an artist/sheep farmer has been a natural rhythm for me for several decades. The hours laboring on the farm and driving the tractor provide idea incubation time for the development of my pieces. The less strenuous days of the year allow studio time. Animal forms and physical gestures inspire most of my work. Pieces are composed of various materials including recycled sisal hay twine; sheep fence wire, rocks from the fields, plaster, gut, and wood from the forest. The quiet action of winding and weaving of the wire and twine around and around becomes both meditative and structural. Materials assert themselves and a piece often takes on its own gestured direction. I toy with balance and mobility allowing some of the sculptures becoming animated when agitated by a breeze, a touch, or a bounce in the floor. Shadows amplify the sculpture." --Jean Noon
