Do you know… …Rosellyn Grohol?

Rosellyn Grohol began painting at the age of ten (10), under the supervision of local Italian artist Luis Zabgara-Cellini. She studied traditional impressionist oil painting with Cellini for 5 years and continued on to art school for another 2 years.

Rosellyn raised a family and began painting again in 2015 when she moved to NEPA and took a quick course in acrylic painting. Because acrylic paints dry so quickly – unlike oils, Rosellyn began painting non-stop.

Rosellyn is a contemporary impressionist and favors painting nature scenes inspired by places she’s been or places she would like to visit. She loves to portray nature’s moods, colors and movement with paint on canvas or her new love, alcohol ink on tiles! The vivid colors that are in her work literally pops off the canvas!

Rosellyn’s work is available for sale at The Art Factory of White Mills. Her pieces are very reasonably priced, beginning at $20.00 and up. Come in and see Rosellyn’s work in person!

“Do You Know… …Randy Hennig?”

Randy Hennig states that “he always had an artistic spirit”! That’s an understatement based on his ability to create and express himself through; art, photography, performance art, and his abundantly beautiful garden!

Randy is “inspired by nature; its colors and textures, its complexity and simplicity”. The endless beauty compels him to put a small part onto canvas!

Randy studied painting under Kenneth Bocsh. He always enjoyed sketching, but painting opened up a whole new world to him! He was hooked! Working with different mediums (oil, oil pastels, and colored pastels) always brings him back to his personal favorite – acrylics!

Randy says that paintings either evolve very quickly or it can a slower, more meditated approach. Often, he needs to put a piece aside and return to it days later with fresh eyes. Randy’s photographs become the subject of many of his paintings. Often, he takes elements from a variety of photographs and merges them into one piece.

Framed work of Randy’s begins at $45.00. To view some of his original pieces, visit The Art Factory of White Mills. The gallery is open daily from 10:00-5:00.
