Julie Gaines at her booth with her original painting Red Sail and the Art on the Neuse poster that featured her painting. The Pamlico County Arts Council ran a limited run of posters – 50 – and was selling them to defray costs of the festival and to raise funds for PCAC’s work of promoting the arts in Pamlico County.

Artist Marlene Miller of Oriental brought a menagerie to Art on the Neuse. The goat and bunny shared space – amicably – with cows and chickens.

Marlene Miller’s take on American Gothic

Carol Anne Mcerlean of Hampton, VA with what originally were her watercolor paintings, then cut up and reassembled and then given an encaustic treatment — using beeswax and other resins as one would paint. .

Forest and the trees encaustic.

There were at least two artists showing works in the encaustic medium. Beeswax and dental stone went in to the making of this work by Wake Forest artist Lauri Arntsen. The hands are cupping a linen filter. It’s art reflection life as an artist. The linen filter is like the one Arntsen uses after heating her wax but before using it in her encaustic work.

Rugmaker Elizabeth Lanier of Wovenkind came from Reidsville to show her works at Art on the Neuse for the first time. Here she is with a rug made of neckties (look closely). She fielded some enquiries about commissions to make similar rugs using neckties from a loved one.
