Michael Husted
As a long time resident of Owego New York I enjoy the small town lifestyle and the beauty of upstate New York. I was fortunate to have some very good teachers in Owego and during my studio art education at Elmira College where I discovered an aptitude for metal working. My forty three year career as a bench jeweler has allowed me to be creative while earning a living. The sculptural aspect of jewelry making has always appealed to me. Now semi-retired I have more time for sculpting and painting. I usually paint in acrylic as the fast drying time allows me to layer colors and work quickly. In recent years my canvases have gotten larger and more dramatic. I sometimes carve stone and other times wood. Once again, I have been creating bigger pieces than in the past. I work non representational, creating images that I hope engage the viewer and stir a reaction.
Sarrah Dibble-Camburn
Sarrah Dibble-Camburn is an artist from Northeast Pennsylvania who enjoys creating intuitive, abstract paintings. The work begins with a few chosen colors but then goes in whatever direction is felt at the time. Her process feels spiritual to her, which makes it important to be open to what thoughts and feelings may come to guide the work. The main focus in her work is the connection to she feels to Source, the simple act of creating, and the joy and healing it brings. Camburn believes being creative raises your vibrational frequency and is important for the soul. Each painting is a new exploration of herself and the world around her. Like many artists, Camburn is a seeker of truths and she uses her art to examine things deeply. She hopes her paintings can provide connection for people who view them. Camburn is an art educator at the Blue Ridge School District. She is entering her 17th year of teaching. She has taught elementary, middle, and high school art students. In addition, she has taught pre-service art educators at Keystone College.
Andre Joyau
André Joyau is a self taught sculptor and designer who has been creating unique and environmentally responsible furniture for the past 35 years. His work reflects the life experiences gained during his youth in rural France on the family farm. André’s work is tempered by his sensibility and desire to make good design while allowing the natural and the organic a place in the finished work. André Joyau Studio (Heptagon Creations, Ltd) is a privately owned and incorporated Brooklyn NY based company specializing in high end furniture, accessories and lighting. André Joyau Studio has developed strong, long term relationships with exclusive top market designers employing flexibility and direction to meet and provide for the specific needs of customers. André Joyau Studio’s mission is to be a dynamically growing and environmentally responsible designer and distributor of high quality furniture, accessories and lighting.
Kym Balthazar Fetsko
Kym Balthazar Fetsko is a contemporary oil and cold wax abstract painter who lives and works in Dunmore, Pennsylvania. A University of the Arts graduate, she was an award-winning illustrator for two decades before transitioning to painting. Because creativity often thrives in ambiguity and uncertainty, Kym’s focus involves cultivating a mindset and environment that supports creative thinking and harnessing the intuitiveness needed to guide the process. Her oil and cold wax paintings are brought to life by building and excavating grungy, textural layers until the history of each painting’s journey is revealed and the final layer of wax is applied. Her paintings have been selected for numerous juried exhibitions including Art of the State - Pennsylvania, The SDMAAG Spring 2022 Exhibition, and the Rice Gallery of Fine Art Juried Exhibition. She has also shown her artwork regionally in Northeastern PA and the Poconos. Kym’s art is found in private collections both in the United States and internationally.
