BUD GIBBONS

Bud Gibbons is a painter who lives in the western foothills of the Allegheny mountains and is Professor Emeritus at Penn State University, New Kensington, Pennsylvania after 40 years of teaching art. He has traveled the world following the insight that landform influences critical thought and paints the landscape and people he finds there. His paintings, even close to home demonstrate his intense interest in exploring the integration of light and form and are meditations on the beauty and resonance of everyday life.

​"As a rule I go out into the country and look for natural settings, not always having a specific site in mind, but letting the light and weather conditions impress on me a motif. And as I become accustomed to the environment and conditions, a spot presents itself."

SARAH MILTON

Sarah Milton’s love of art was born in New England, where she grew up in the rural town of Bridport, Vermont. Her artistic career has led to exhibiting in gallery and museum shows, fabricating and installing museum exhibitions, art conservation, and custom picture framing. Most recently her interview with Kristine Fisher on Cape Ann ARTWaves supported by 1623 Studios aired on YouTube in December 2020 giving an overview of her life’s work.

"I have been an artist my entire life. There isn’t a time I can think of when I wasn’t making something or thinking about creating something... My art has two sides/personalities, probably more, but two are visible to me. One side is emotional with a loose approach, and the other tends to be geometric and strategic."

NANCY ECKELS

Nancy Eckels was born in New York and grew up in Utah before she moved to Los Angeles, California where she now resides. After a 25-year career in television, she moved on to make painting her full-time occupation. Her painting career has now spanned 22 years and many abstract paintings.

"I paint off the top of my head with little feel for where I’m going. As patterns begin to emerge on the canvas, I am able to find a direction and a composition. I paint what is in my head and my imagination rather than what is in front of my eyes."

JAN STRATTON

Jan Stratton grew up in New Jersey but has spent her adult life in Oklahoma. She retired there in 2014 after almost 34 years in broadcast television. She was hired as Public Affairs Director at KSWO-TV in 1980 in Lawton but moved into the News Department within a few months. Her first duties were as field reporter and photographer and quickly moved on to producer, anchor and ultimately News Director. She remained on the anchor desk until her retirement. She was inducted into the Oklahoma Broadcasters’ Association Hall of Fame in 2008 and the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame in 2014. Arts have always been a big part of Jan’s life—playing piano​, performing in dozens of community ​theater productions, and painting which she began in earnest after retiring. She began taking watercolor lessons with local artist Tom Biggs, classes with Katherine Liontas-Warr​en at Cameron University and Matthew Hughes of Leslie Powell Gallery. She continued her learning in workshops with noted artists Mary Whyte and Christine Lashley. She picked up her oils a few years later and since, has had workshops with acclaimed artists Kathleen Dunphy, Qiang Huang, Tina Garrett and Peggy Immel. Jan’s both a studio and plein air artist. She’s married to retired Comanche County Judge Bill Stratton. They have a combined family of six adult children and 15 grandchildren.

"Plein air painting can be challenging. Being outdoors in all that beauty and quiet is inspiring and joyful but you do have to contend with lugging your art gear over hill and dale, the Oklahoma wind, “critters”, deciding quickly on your subject and painting quickly, too, because that light’s going to change, no matter what."
