Fine Art of Recycling By Charles Schelle
My Explore Carroll colleague, Charles Schelle, has written a great article on Eric Veach, who caught my eye with his wonderful art at the Westminster Flower and Jazz Festival:
Fine Art of Recycling
One man's junk is this man's creative canvas
Posted 5/16/10 by Carroll Eagle, Westminster Eagle
http://www.explorecarroll.com/news/4326/fine-art-recycling/
By Charles SchelleWhen Eric Veach saw some leftover tractor parts pegged for the trash can last summer, the gears in his head started turning.
The 38-year-old Manchester resident thought he could take those worn-out parts, which had been removed from construction equipment, and create a holder for his pet's dog food bowl.
As it turned out, one man's junk turned out to be another man's canvas — and maybe even an environmental message.
"I started laying (the parts) out on a bench and seeing what would work, and that's kind of how I got started," Veach said.
Veach has been busy over the past year creating items ranging from miniature tractors and trucks to candle holders and some funky looking critters. He handcrafts each sculpture for his budding art business, Daughter's Delight.

Carroll Community College opens three different art exhibits - by Erica Kritt
Carroll County Times News Web site http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/
Art took center stage Sunday at Carroll Community College as three art shows opened on campus.
Maggie Ball, visual arts department chairwoman of Carroll Community College, said this was the first time the school had three openings in one day.
[…]
"Steven Dobbin: Reclamation, Variation II," opened in the Scott Center. His work features paint cans.
[…]
In the Great Hall of the college, the artist cooperative Off Track Art, which has gallery space in Westminster, displayed works with a train theme.
While some artists displayed sketches of train tracks, others did jewelry and paper cutouts.
"It challenged each of us to broaden our thinking," Mary Decker, one of the artists in the show, said.
Linda Van Hart, another member, said the Off Track Art exhibit was the center of the exhibitions, bridging the physical space between Dobbin's space and a gallery of student art.
The student art is being exhibited in the Langdon Gallery. Ball said that having the students in with the community artists and Dobbin gives them pride.

His work reminds the viewers of the delicate connection between humankind and nature. The natural wood canvas is delicately carved and enhanced with paint.

April 1, 1899: Friday night Westminster to Baltimore train discontinued
Democratic Advocate, April 1, 1899.
Friday night Westminster to Baltimore train discontinued
The Friday night train to Westminster from Baltimore, to accommodate persons desiring to attend the theatre, has been discontinued, because of lack of sufficient patronage.
The Railroad Company did not give the train a fair trial. Many persons do not attend places of amusement during Lent, and the train was started at the very beginning of Lent. Had the train been started the first of December the result would have been different.
Or, if the train had been continued during April, we believe the patronage would pay more than the cost.
Democratic Advocate, April 1, 1899.

Ubuntu On view Through March 16, 2010
"Ubuntu" is of South African philosophy of community spirit that can best be summed up as "I in You and You in Me."
Ubuntu will feature a variety of talented artists who grew up in other nations and now make their home in Maryland. Their art is reflective of traditional styles and worldviews from their birth nations combined with the Western aesthetic they encountered here. Home, family, love, nature, war and loss, collective themes of humanness are expressed realistically, abstractly and in mixed media.
Featured Artists: Najwa Al-Amin, Baltimore/Iraq; Pablo Caviedes, Ecuador/New York City, Irina Filonova, Columbia/Russia; Zahi Khamis, Baltimore/Palestine; Kateryna Mychajlyshun, Baltimore/Ukraine; Ray Chen, Taiwan/Indiana; and Sunil Sukla, Boonseboro/Bangladesh.

Happy Birthday, Off Track Art, celebrating one year as a coop gallery!

Opening Reception: Friday, February 12, 2010... 5:30-7:30 PM. See you there!
GUEST ARTIST
By combining her fine arts and textile design backgrounds, Nancy Schmitt creates unique vessels, wall hangings and wearables made of felted wool. Her passion for working with wool fiber, along with the organic nature of the medium, help her connect the ancient traditions of felt making with modern artistry. Because wool is an organic medium, she must be willing to surrender preconceived design notions and allow the fiber to develop its own unique shape and form. The surface becomes truly three dimensional with the addition of beads that capture and reflect light. Sculptural cuts in the matte wool add texture and expose color changes in the fiber layers.
NEW WEBSITE
Off Track Art can now be found on the web. Many thanks to Gail Elwell for organizing things and getting our website launched. Look for art images and info on our new website: http://www.offtrackart.org/.
