Our Jurors: Karole Nicholson and Ken Salome
Dedham Art Association’s 2024 Fall Members’ Exhibit Jurors

Mixed media, collage, and pastel are the mediums of choice for artist Karole Nicholson. She has participated in many master-level workshops with esteemed instructors in the United States and Europe. Foremost subjects are intimate scenes of the local landscape. Texture, a gentle palette, and an abstract view are the components that draw her into developing each painting, many of which have appeared in national juried exhibitions and international competitions. She is represented by the Next Door Gallery in Mansfield, Massachusetts.

After working as an electrical engineer for over two decades, Ken Salome decided to pick up a camera and fulfill his passion for photography. He often features nature in his imagery and employs water as the underlying theme. “Like many artists of every category, my interest in photography started at a very young age. Then, life got in the way. My photography rebooted when I stepped away from the daily nine-to-five slog.”
