Brent Seabrook Make one good photo each day, and send it to you, sometimes with minimal text. I will find the subject while pursuing my daily activities.
Jessica Weitz I will be working on a writing and installation piece called D/evolve. It will include poetry, short essays, paintings made with soil and plant pigments, and a woods installation. This work is partially inspired by participating in a National Science Foundation grant to reimagine biology through a feminist/queer lens through work on a module called The Feminist Poetics of Creatureliness.
Lauren Olitski Paint, paint, paint! I plan to create between 12 and 20 paintings in a variety of sizes, often using discarded or repurposed materials in addition to more traditional artist materials. I’ll share process photographs and studio updates regularly. Upon request each sponsor donating $50 or more will receive a 5”x5” work on paper mounted to mat board, also created during the course of the marathon.
Linda Fuhrman The product will be an altered book - a dictionary that has words and definitions deleted (whited out) or altered (cut-and-paste) in a satirical protest of the activities of the DOGE organization.
Pat Sheehan I'll be producing photographs drawings and hopefully by the end of the month, a painting for this fundraiser. I broke my right arm in January, shortly after committing to making time for creativity. Helping and protecting our neighbors and friends in a time of energency is a great incentive, as my arm recovers, to put real meaning into my art.
Kaitlyn Whitaker I will be creating traditional media pieces of Vermont's wildlife to celebrate the natural world and support those building new lives in our community.
Lauren Watrous Drawing and painting
Timothy Hayes I plan to use this time commitment as motivation to explore new designs in wooden sculpture and/or sustainably built furniture, using wood from our local woodland. I'm already designing art pieces that include some expression of protest regarding our current political & environmental crises. Every $10 of donation to my efforts for CASP will secure one ticket to a raffle of one of the pieces I create this May.
Candace Jensen Natural & Hand-made Art Materials, Calligraphy, Short Essay, Poetry & Drawing
Tina K Olsen In Celebration and in Grief. Using water color and or oil paint I will be responding to the joy and Grief as it arises thru my painting
Cathy Osman May in Vermont is unpredictable, as is my studio practice. Some say don't plant your garden until after memorial day. Who can wait? I will use this challenge to remind my self and hopefully my audience that everyday efforts yield change. I will document these changes for you, whether they be the evolution of an oil painting or more casual moment on paper.
Owen Schuh Paintings and drawings based on mathematics. I work by hand so things take a long time. I'll be sharing my process, works in progress and some newly completed works.
