We have three more returning artists to shout-out this month before diving into the new artists joining us for the #DoorCountyPleinAirFestival. The 2025 #DCPAF is shaping up to be a great year! Welcome returning artist Beth Bathe! From Strasburg PA, Beth Bathe’s award winning representational paintings have been described by art critics as “evoking nostalgia, like that of an old sepia toned photograph, often with just touches of color.” Many viewers wonder what medium she uses. Is it watercolor, is it oil? Beth’s answer: “somewhat both.” She works with Water Mixable Oil Colors in a limited palette, using brushes and unconventional tools. Beth crisscrosses the country, painting en plein air and participates in up to ten high-profile juried and invitational competitions a year. Learn more at Bethbathe.com! (fb)

Happy Friday! Today's #FeaturedArtistFriday belongs to Debbie Kupinsky who as you know is an Annex Gallery artist and a #PenArtDC instructor. We have new work in from Debbie in the gallery - including these two new mugs! Debbie works in multiple materials such as ceramics, wood and fiber. " Just as the still life transforms the ordinary through the act of looking and seeing, my sculptural works investigate this concept through the interplay between objects and images..." Stop by and discover Debbie's work (you can even take some home!) at the Annex Gallery and join Debbie in her upcoming workshops ✨ Animal Cups: https://loom.ly/mALjiw8 ☕ Calico and Tabby Mugs - $150/each (fb)
