After a long winter we’re all looking forward to warmer days ahead. These watercolor paintings remind us of the coming spring and summer weather and may even have you looking forward to sun and a rest in the cool shade of your porch — real or wished for!

“These paintings re-capture memories from my youth. They are places from around my hometown that are nostalgic and quintessential to Vermont. I painted them to evoke a quiet time in one’s life where we can appreciate all that is good and soak it in. I hope the viewer is left with a feeling of warmth and peace.”  Kathleen Berry Bergeron

Kathleen Berry Bergeron’s watercolor paintings and limited edition prints are available direct from the artist here.

American Artists Register for ART IN ARCHITECTURE PROJECTS

Leave a comment
ART IN ARCHITECTURE PROJECT
GSA Synopsis for Artist Services
The General Services Administration (GSA) Art in Architecture Program commissions American artists (citizens and Lawful Permanent Residents or Permanent Workers of the United States) to create publicly scaled and permanently installed artworks for federal buildings nationwide. GSA allocates one-half of one percent of the estimated construction costs of new or modernized federal buildings for art commissions.
Artists who wish to be considered for this and all future GSA art commissions must submit application materials to GSA’s National Artists Registry.  The Registry constitutes the qualified list of artists for this and all GSA commissions.  Instructions on how to join the Registry are available on the following Website:
GSA evaluates artists based on the following criteria: the media, materials, content, style, and scope of the artist’s past work, along with the artist’s past performance and experience with commissions or public art projects.  Short-listed artists will be contacted and asked to submit additional information including a statement that he or she can perform the work associated with the GSA commission within the identified budget.  GSA will count the combined weight of all the selection criteria as significantly more important than price.
At a minimum, the scope of services for commissions will require: collaboration with the lead designer selected for the building project; development of preliminary and final concepts; fabrication of the artwork; participation in meetings and conservation reviews as necessary; and the installation of the artwork at the project site.

Vermont Artist Licenses Artwork on Maple Syrup Bottles

Leave a comment

There is a new bottle for American maple syrup being manufactured, decorated with art by Kathleen Berry Bergeron. The bottles are printed with three of her painted art scenes: tapping the trees for maples syrup sap, gathering the buckets of sap, and boiling the sap to make syrup. The company producing the decorative bottles sells them to distributors across the USA and internationally who then fill them with syrup and sell them in stores.

Watch the video interview with the artist, who really gets it right when she puts in her pitch for more art licensing contracts!
