Our Painting Group meets weekly to share art tips, helpful suggestions and to socialize.

To make our many art activities more accessible, we offer rides to members who are not able to drive to in-person meetings. For those who cannot join our meetings in person or online, the art demonstrations are recorded and posted online for access anytime from anywhere.

Critique Night with Susan Lynn and John Caggiano

Critique Night with Susan Lynn and John Caggiano

Critique Night with Susan Lynn and
John Caggiano

Non-members are invited to attend meetings for a $5 donation to our Community Fund.

Susan’s paintings have often been described by others as poetic, lyrical, luminous, and serene. Primarily a landscape painter, she is moved by the evening light hitting a stand of grasses, the movement of water, the shadows crossing a winding road, the mysteries of light and atmosphere... Having spent her early career working as an architectural illustrator, it was a fantastic training ground for a realist painter. As she practiced, she cultivated understanding of perspective, shadows, reflections, and how color behaves under varying light conditions. She works both in watercolor and oil, both en plein air and in the studio. “Painting the landscape outdoors, from life affords me a keener awareness of the unique qualities of light that give one a sense of place.” In 2019, she opened her own gallery in Rockport.

John is drawn to the physical beauty and unique quality of Cape Ann’s light. Aside from participating in up to twelve juried plein air events a year, he travels extensively, both here and abroad, painting on location. This plein air approach enables him to capture the essence of the time and place that he interprets into his bright and colorful “Impressionistic-realism” style. The use of a palette knife, enhances the effects of his brushwork. “Painting for me is the bold and dynamic use of color that infuses life into the subject of the painting. Color is the lifeblood of the painting. Nothing stimulates more than its pleasing harmony, whether strongly applied or toned and tranquil.” He received an MFA from Pratt Institute, supplemented by courses at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, and has maintained a gallery and studio on Bearskin Neck in Rockport since 1981.

Susan and John live in Rockport, Massachusetts.

Dedham Art Association’s Chinese Brush Painting Demonstration with  Gary Heise

Dedham Art Association’s Chinese Brush Painting Demonstration with Gary Heise

Dedham Art Association’s Chinese Brush Painting Demonstration with Gary Heise

Non-members are invited to attend meetings for a $5 donation to our Community Fund.

Beyond the Valley
Ink and Watercolor by Gary Heise
18” x 27”

Soon after graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in 1983 with a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Painting, Gary took a series of classes in the basics of Chinese traditional painting with Liao Shiou-ping, a Taiwanese painter and printmaker. Studying with Mr. Liao enabled him to integrate Chinese painting techniques into his own watercolor work. Heise’s watercolors depict the landscape using Chinese painting materials (ink, brush, and Chinese papers) combined with both Eastern and Western painting techniques. He is inspired by a personal experience of the landscape; from views of the local landscape to imaginative, semi-abstract scenes.

Gary and his wife Janelle moved to Warren, RI in 2022. Since that time, he has been able to devote much of his activity to painting—exhibiting regularly with the Imago Gallery in Warren, Studio Hop in Providence, and the Rhode Island Watercolor Society, based in Pawtucket. Heise participates in RISD Craft, a bi-annual alumni street fair. Gary is currently the director of the East Side Art Center in Pawtucket, RI, and started teaching Chinese watercolor classes there this past year.

Dedham Art Association’s Art Talk
on Portraiture by Mary Minifie, Art Swap, and
Holiday Gathering.

Non-members are invited to attend meetings for a $5 donation to our Community Fund.

By Naomi Wilsey

Festivities at our December Meeting
Celebrate with art and clean out clutter! You are invited to our Holiday Gathering and Art Swap at Endicott Estate on Monday, December 2nd, from 6:45 to 8:45 p.m. Festive hats and holiday sweaters are encouraged to celebrate the season.

Art Talk on Portraiture by Mary Minifie

Art Swap #1 – Bring your gently used or new extra art supplies to swap with others. Please limit large items (for example, frames). No art books, please. Leftovers will be donated to the Art Department at the High School.

Art Swap #2 – At home, create a miniature work of art in any medium on a
4'' x 4'' substrate. Bring it to the December 2nd meeting, and we will have a blind Art Swap exchange. It’s a great way to meet other members and guests.

We will have other fundraisers for the Food Pantry instead of donating miniatures this time. The Art Swap is just for fun.

Nantucket Cove Oil Painting by Sergio Roffo

Sergio Roffo “Early in my career I was inspired by the early American painters such as Albert Bierstadt, Fitz Henry Lane and so many others and still am to this day. I’m inspired daily as I walk on the shoreline of a beach or in the forest or the mountains when I view the light. It’s constant...you never stop looking. I try to convey a sense of relaxed calmness in all of my paintings. To capture that elusive essence that is nature. A moment in time. It’s a characteristic that defines all of my work. We will always be students of nature. Brush stroke by brush stroke, Nature calls us back to capture the mood.”
