The Gallery at FCTV

Artworks by Anne Torry-Ballou, Denise Leone &amp; Colleen Corson will be displayed at The Gallery at FCTV from July 6 through July 31. A Gallery reception will take place on Sunday, July 12, from 3-5 pm.
Denise Leone began her creative journey by creating mobiles and wind chimes, transforming these coastal treasures into unique, handcrafted pieces. Through mixed media work, she combines her love of nature, appreciation for craftsmanship, and interest in culture and design. Each piece reflects the beauty of Cape Cod, the beaches around the world, and the stories found along its shores, with the hope of inspiring others to see the natural world through art. Of her work, Denise says: “My inspiration comes from living on Cape Cod and from my family’s rich artistic heritage. Surrounded by miles of beautiful beaches, I find endless inspiration in nature. While exploring the shoreline, I collect treasures such as seashells, sea glass, driftwood, and other natural elements that become the foundation of my artwork.”
From childhood, Anne Torry-Ballou wanted to be an artist. Family outings into woods, fields, hills, along streams and rivers, and the shores of several states, instilled a love and respect for nature. Respected art teachers in school taught her to look at the world and notice lights and shadows, color hues and complements, depth and perspective. Early lessons in art history gave her insight into the world of painting, and she was specifically drawn to the work of the French Impressionists.
Working almost exclusively with acrylic paint, with occasional forays into watercolor studies, she uses photographs as references to document placeholders in the development of the work. A chiaroscuro sketch on the canvas is made using burnt and raw sienna, white, and burnt and raw umber. The work is developed to capture light, shadows, color, and energy by applying color in layers of paint and glazes. While her recent work is primarily landscapes and seascapes, she also creates floral paintings and occasionally takes on commissions.
Colleen Corson is a multimedia artist and clothing designer who believes that art shouldn’t just hang on a wall – it should be lived in, moved in, and experienced. Her journey as an artist is rooted in a deep love for texture, color, and storytelling. On canvas, she expresses this through multimedia painting, blending different materials and techniques to create rich, layered visual narratives. As a clothing designer, Colleen views garments as wearable canvases. Her designs are created for those who see fashion as a form of personal expression, blending thoughtful craftsmanship with a modern, artistic aesthetic. “Whether I am manipulating paint on a canvas or fabric on a form, my goal remains the same: to create distinct, authentic pieces that speak to the soul,” says Colleen.

Last president to conveniently die at the same place where his funeral was held and he was buried (his swearing parrot was kicked out of his funeral).
