Deb Rolfs #18 on the 2018 Covered Bridge Art Studio Tour stop Oct. 12-14th

 Painting is challenging, therapeutic and relaxing for me.  I am inspired by color, and incorporate bold colors in my paintings.  I try to convey warmth, optimism and fun in my paintings.  While I love the process of painting - creating and watching the painting unfold - my greatest joy in painting is when someone else enjoys the piece.

I am the President of the Cedarburg Artists Guild.  My most recent project was to complete 70 paintings in 70 days of Cedarburg homes.  These homes, along with still lifes and landscapes, were on display in my solo exhibit, “Come Home:  the Art of Deb Rolfs,” at the Cedarburg Cultural Center from July 18 through August 27, 2017.  I was recently the winner of the “People’s Choice” Award in the Cedarburg Cultural Center’s “Third Annual Members’ Exhibit” in December of 2014, and awarded a blue ribbon in the Ozaukee County show in March 2015.  I was the CCC’s Artist in Residence in January 2015 and have taught painting classes at the CCC.  I also have three paintings in the permanent collection at the West Bend Mutual Insurance Company.

My original oil and acrylic paintings can be seen at the the Pink Llama Gallery and the Main Street Gallery in Cedarburg, WI.

Tom Kubala #16 on the 2018 Covered Bridge Art Studio Tour stop Oct. 12-14th

Like most of us, Tom began painting soon after learning to walk. Unlike many,
drawing and painting has been his constant companion ever since. Currently,
Tom paints weekly with a group of friends known only to themselves as the
Dumpster School. His subjects range from local architecture and landscapes to
still life objects. Watercolor has been Tom’s media of choice primarily because of
it’s simplicity and portability, painting outside is a particular pleasure for him.

Watercolor is a fascinating medium, it has a mind of its own. Tom finds a major
task in painting is getting out of the way, both spiritually and physically.
Spiritually, to see the painting as it unfolds - without the filter of a concept or
abstract notion. Physically, so as not to interfere with the paint’s own mixing -
directly on the paper. Tom believes that a painting is a painting, that it must
stand on it’s own as a collection of colored blotches on white paper, a collection
that has the ability, if organized properly, to bring life to the world where none
existed before. Subject matter is only a starting point for his paintings, an
organizing framework for color and value.

Haley Maxine Grebe #12 on the 2018 Covered Bridge Art Studio Tour stop Oct. 12-14th

Haley Maxine Grebe was born legally blind and sees the world with no depth perception. She grew to love two dimensional art because she could transfer her view of the world onto a flat surface which is the way she had always experienced it.  Some of her paintings and drawings focus on details in nature like her view through a magnifying glass while others become distant blurry impressionist landscapes.  Working in acrylic or chalk pastel her colors are intense because she sees colors very intense since her eyes have little pigment.

B’s Stained Glass

 Bridget DeLoge is an artist born and raised in Michigan. In 2008 she moved with her husband and son to Mequon, WI. She has been interested in stained glass since she was in junior high school, when her 7th grade art teacher recommended she take an after school stained glass class. She fell in love with the medium and always thought she may pick it back up someday. After she graduated from high school, she went on to pursue a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Eastern Michigan University. with a concentration in watercolor. Although painting was a main focus in college, she never gave up on the idea of a future in Stained Glass. After a few opportunities opened up in recent years, she began her Stained Glass business. She likes to create anything that comes to mind, while working with the many colors and types of glass. Lately, she has been incorporating wood into her designs, but one of her favorite things to create is portraits of family pets. With a provided image, she finds it challenging to pick out just the right details, to represent the pet’s personal character.
