Living in Italy taught author Erica Bauermeister a new language – and it wasn’t Italian. Lively conversations happened in the kitchen every day – between cooks, of course – but the ones that caught her attention most were the dialogues that simmered on the stove, mingled in the salad, marinated on the counter. The ingredients, it seemed, carried on intimate conversations between themselves and could be overheard by those who paid attention.
Being an artist, especially these days, is not easy.
“You don’t do this to get rich,” laughed Sue Cretarolo, a Bainbridge artist whose evocative encaustic works grace the walls of Bainbridge Arts and Crafts this month.
“You do it because you love it,” she said.
Her love of color, composition, and content was stoked over 25 years as a graphic designer and continues today as she explores one medium after another, including metalwork, acrylic and most recently, wax.
Although gallery sales lately are not what she was seeing before the economy nose-dived, she’s still intrigued by working big – exploring the expanse of a large canvas, or two.
“I’ll do it until I run out of storage,” she said.
Her limited-pallette paintings are part of a group show “Almost Abstract” which includes work by Cretarolo, Delila Katzka and Kari Bergstrom MacKenzie.
