CNY Home & Garden Artist of the month, Teresa Vitale
April 27, 2009 by Teresa Vitale
Wonderful things are happening in Central, NY. A new magazine has been launched called CNY Home & Garden. I have been fortunate to be selected to be featured on there cover for the May issue and also on the last page. I am so honored to be in such great company. The magazine is filled with accurate and informative stories on life and living, all written by local pros’. And best of all it is Free! The magazine is available on line and also at: Liverpool area shops, Libraries, some Wegmans, some Price Choppers, some hair salons, The Eggplant (restaurant off Erie Blvd. in Syracuse), Baldwinsville Elementary teachers lounge, Syracuse University and at Skaneateles Artisans.
The Last Leaf:
There’s something poetic about homes and gardens. Would a home and garden magazine be complete without a poem or an artisan’s touch? This month brings a personal look at one of Central New York’s finest faux painters, Teresa Vitale and her designs. For Teresa, the room shown above was one of the most exciting and satisfying of her many works of art.
Teresa:
“I have been a self taught artist for over 20 years. For me, art is life and life is art. I grew up in Porto Empedocle in Sicily, where art was and is a way of life. Now I live in a 156-year-old farm house which feeds me with inspiration each and every day.” Click here to read the entire article.

An artist worthy of the name should express all the truth of nature, not only the exterior truth, but also, and above all, the inner truth. -Auguste Rodin
One Woman’s Artistic Gift:
On her countryside farm in Salt Lake City, Kazaih raises goats. And paints. “I paint people I can relate to and the wildlife and countryside I love,” the 58 year old says. In 2002, Kaziah sent a note to a Gloria Johnson to see if she could do a portrait of her son, an Army private who died in an ambush in Iraq. Gloria agreed, and Kaziah’s portrait moved her to tears. Kaziah continued her humanitarian experiment — without taking Read more

An artist in an unlikely body
October 23, 2008 by Editor
Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures. -Henry Ward Beecher

Artist, Evelyn Dankovich, of North Syracuse, NY, began her career painting landscapes and portraits of the people and places she knew. As she explains ”I love the challenge of painting what I see and feel.”
She uses watercolor, acrylics, or oils to capture the unique beauty and moods of nature. With an emphasis on rural, woodland, and water scenes her work takes us beyond cities and suburbs to rural America and to the natural wilderness of the Adirondacks and our other wilderness parks. She hopes that the viewer will walk the paths she walks and work to preserve our environment.
Materials used are acid free and archival. All subject matter is drawn from places the artist has been. The location is identified on the back of the painting. Her palette for all mediums uses the same hues wherever possible.
