< Back NICOLE BAKER Mediums / Interests: Acrylic, Fabric, Art Enthusiast, Multi Media I am a mixed media hobby artist. I've been crafting for most of my life, have tried a lot of different media, and especially enjoy using gel printed papers and found objects in collage. I love learning new techniques and have especially enjoyed workshops at the Mill District Local Art Gallery, Make-It Springfield, the Springfield Museums, Snow Farm, Life's Memories & More, Easthampton Clay, and, most recently, ACAA. I've had work exhibited at the Community Gallery at Springfield United Methodist Church, the Mill District Local Art Gallery, the Amy H. Carberry Fine Arts Gallery at STCC, and the Taber Art Gallery at HCC. nicolebakercooley@gmail.com Next

Eight of our talented artists generously shared their skills by teaching and demonstrating their techniques to an overflow crowd of enthusiastic participants. This hands-on event allowed guests to sit with the artists, ask questions, and try some of the artistic processes themselves. Presenters included Carolyn Maloney, Christina Nasuti, Kim Velky, Gail Cortis, Joe Burger, Donna Carmel, and Laura Cyran , each offering a unique look into their creative approach. The event was highly anticipated and enjoyed by all who attended. Another “Share” event is planned for the fall, so be sure to check this site for upcoming details and announcements. 1/7 Creating with Colored Pencils This colored pencil class created a relaxed, welcoming space for artists of all backgrounds to try a new medium. Students appreciated the clear instruction, helpful tips, and thoughtful pacing, along with background music that enhanced the creative atmosphere. A balance of guidance and freedom encouraged participants to “make it their own,” making the experience both enjoyable and rewarding.
