Art Exhibits The Library offers the use of its Conference Room, Community Room, and Glass Display Case for artists to display their work. The Conference Room and Glass Display Case are curated by Dolly Curtis, while the Community Room features mainly exhibits in conjunction with the Easton Arts Council. If you're interested in displaying your work, contact Dolly Curtis at dollycurtis72@gmail.com, or Sheila Weaver at saweaver@optonline.net . Please read our artist guidelines below. Artist Guidelines Peggy Dembicer Transformations Through June 30 Conference Room & Large Glass Display Case Peggy Dembicer - Transformations, 5/14-6/30 Peggy Dembicer - Transformations, 5/14-6/30 Peggy Dembicer - Transformations, 5/14-6/30 Peggy Dembicer - Transformations, 5/14-6/30 1/8 Peggy Dembicer is a mixed media artist whose work reflects a deep foundation in fiber arts and a lifelong exploration of materials and techniques. She began her artistic career in the early 1980s as a handweaver, developing a strong affinity for tapestry weaving. By the 1990s, her practice evolved toward framed and sculptural works, which she continues to exhibit in galleries and museum exhibitions, as well as in private collections. A central focus of Dembicer’s work is paper weaving. Using paper, fiber, and beads, she creates two- and three-dimensional framed constructions that range from pictorial to geometric and abstract compositions. These works reflect both structural precision and visual lyricism, rooted in traditional textile processes while reimagined through unconventional materials. Another primary area of concentration is Dembicer’s extensive use of seed beads. Her pictorial and patterned works may be woven, embroidered, painted, or assembled as intricate mosaics. In her mosaic pieces, thousands of tiny beads are meticulously placed and adhered with glue, forming richly textured surfaces. Some works contain as many as 20,000 beads and require months of sustained creative focus to complete. Recent works explore the integration of acrylics, polymers, beads, metal, and stone, expanding both scale and material dialogue. These combinations result in distinctive pieces that are visually stimulating and engaging to a wide audience. Peggy Dembicer lives in Weston, Connecticut, where she balances an active family life with daily time devoted to her studio practice. Amy-Alison Ward Earth in Transition Through August 15 Community Room Art Reception: Saturday, July 11, 3-6 pm Amy-Alison Ward - Poster 16x20 Amy-Alison Ward, 6/27-8-15 Amy-Alison Ward, 6/27-8-15 Amy-Alison Ward - Poster 16x20 1/6 Amy-Alison Ward is an Easton, Connecticut–based mixed-media painter working in oil, acrylic, and textured materials. Her work investigates the macrocosm and microcosm of the natural world. Of particular interest to her is humanity’s relationship with nature, and how our attitudes affect Earth, via our interactions with it. Amy-Alison’s current exhibit explores planetary changes driven by climate change and human driven-development on ecosystems and others of our fellow species. She has shown her work previously in multiple group shows and solo exhibitions. Working in mixed media—including oil, acrylic, and textured materials—she is drawn to surface, gesture, and subtle shifts in color that evoke both physical and emotional landscapes. Her compositions are inspired by organic forms, shifting terrains, and the complexities of internal experience. These elements are carefully balanced between tension and harmony, where fluid movement meets moments of stillness. The resulting imagery suggests both grounding and momentum, inviting viewers into a space that feels at once expansive and intimate. Amy-Alison’s process involves building layered surfaces that reveal and conceal over time. Rather than presenting a fixed narrative, her work resists singular interpretation, holding space for ambiguity and reflection. Central to her practice is a deep concern for humanity’s relationship with the natural world and how human behavior shapes—and disrupts—ecological systems. Her current exhibition, Earth in Transition, examines the profound transformations to ecosystems occurring across the planet due to climate change and humans driven to development. Through this body of work, she explores the present-day results of a disconnected relationship with Nature and the profound effects our attitudes toward the natural world have on our fellow species and how we live now. Paul Rockoff “As Seen Through My Eyes” Art from a Colorblind, Self-Taught Artist" July 1- July 30 Conference Room Art Reception: Friday, July 10, 3-6 pm Paul Rockoff 7/1-7/30 - A St. Mary's 4th of July Paul Rockoff, 7/1-7/30 - The Port Jefferson Ferry Paul Rockoff, 7/1-7/30 Paige Bueckers - UCONN 5 Paul Rockoff 7/1-7/30 - A St. Mary's 4th of July 1/3 Paul is a color-blind, self-taught artist whose lifelong love of creating began in kindergarten—ironically, at the very moment his color blindness was discovered. Unable to read the names on the crayon labels, he unintentionally filled his early drawings with purple skies and orange-brown grass. What might have seemed like a limitation instead opened the door to imagination, humor, and an unconventional view of the world that has shaped his art ever since. Born in Bridgeport, raised in Fairfield, Paul has been an Easton resident since 1978 and practiced Oral Surgery in the local community for fifty years. Throughout those decades, art remained a constant source of joy. As a child, he was drawn to cartooning and even created his own version of Mad Magazine in grade school, much to the dismay of his teachers who caught it circulating around the classroom. Aside from basic grade-school art classes, Paul’s only formal training came much later, in an Adult Continuing Education oil-painting class. The instructor - who happened to be a former patient -helped him navigate the challenges of color blindness with great kindness and humor. It was his wife, Maria, who suggested embracing black-and-white painting. Paul created many monochromatic pieces and displayed them in his office. One day, a patient encouraged him to exhibit his work at Framemakers Art Gallery in Black Rock. Several art pieces sold at the show, and from that moment, he was hooked. Paul’s early artworks focused on nostalgic scenes from the 1940s, ’50s, and ’60s. He aspired to be the “Black-and-White Norman Rockwell,” and often hid a Labrador Retriever—sometimes obvious, sometimes subtle—somewhere in each painting. As his style evolved, he gradually experimented with touches of color, then splashes, and eventually full palettes, often adding humor or observations of human nature. Acrylics joined his toolbox as he expanded into sports figures, musicians, and even commissioned pet portraits, always aiming to include details that made each subject unmistakably unique. Despite his color blindness, he never let color intimidate him. Paul relies on a supportive circle of friends and fellow artists, the steady wisdom of his wife, and a color wheel that assures him of the results of color mixing—even when he can’t see them. Paul stated “Creating art continues to be one of the great joys of my life. I hope viewers enjoy this show at least half as much as I enjoyed bringing these pieces to life.”
