Short Bio
She works from Cornerstone Design, her hill top studio in Boscawen, NH, where she combines a love of lettering, paper and photographic images into framed messages celebrating life and its possibilities. Adele has been a member of the League of NH Craftsmen and the NH Art Association since 1975, juried in mixed media, photography and calligraphy. She exhibits throughout the New England area and is represented at the TWIGGS Gallery.
Statement
The mixed media art with text Adele creates reflects the way she see the world; a complex, ever changing combination of textures, colors, moments, and stories, imbued with spirit, wonder, and discovery. Art is a dialogue between the viewer and the work, and she can’t always say whether the text or the design comes first for her, as they are inextricably linked, but thinking of ideas that encompass both is the most challenging part. From that, she builds my work with transparent panels of complex photographic images placed on my encaustic. mixed media or collaged backgrounds and then taking that imagery and layering it with my hand lettering creating a meaningful combination of spirit and vision filled with questions……. or perhaps answers.
