My cousin lives in [Bucks County] and he's always at Max Hansen's store so he told me about the store and suggested that I come by there with my work. I had been commissioned to to a series of paintings this summer featuring the Carversville Inn and Max Hansen Carversville Grocery. I took one of the drawings of the store and made it into cards and then I presented the cards to Max and Andrea and they decided to display them and sell them. Then they asked me about doing a show and that's how this came about.</span></div>

Then I took up painting when I couldn't get access to a printing press. I took up painting. I was still in my twenties then and I've been painting ever since. I've done some painting. I've done some murals around Philadelphia and other types of paintings.</span></div>

I did one for Bain's (and it was huge!) It took up the whole side of the street. You could see it from the window as you were going down Montgomery Ave. </span></div>

I was buying some fabric and I was asking the guy about the history of the store there because my mural for Bain had been on 4th and South. It was where the first Bain's restaurant was. So he was telling me about it and I mentioned that I do murals. He asked me if I could do a mural for them on the side of their building for a store called Maxie's Daughter (which still exists). If you go to fabric row off Fourth and Monroe Street you can see that mural. It still exists! It's across the street from Essene, the natural food store. </span></div>

There was an apartment that became available. So I lived there for a while. I did some other murals. I worked for Mural Arts program and I did some murals for the city- one in West Philadelphia, one in Northeast Philadelphia at the Jardel Playground which was the subject of a documentary on public reaction to public art. The mural got whitewashed. While I was there there were people that came by that said to me, "are those figures African American?" (They used another term) "Are they black or white? " I said, "it doesn't really matter what they are. They are supposed to represent swimmers in a swimming pool." So they said, "if you don't whiten up those swimmers we're going to whitewash that mural." Well I didn't really think they'd do it and so I continued painting. When I was finished they whitewashed the mural. It was the subject of a documentary. For that I got a lot of publicity! (laughing) But it was negative, you know. That wasn't so cool.</span></div>

I've done a really diverse kind of work going from abstracts to sculptural shaped canvases and paintings and all different types of figurative work and different types of work. I just do what I like to do and that's all. I don't really pay attention to if it's the "same type of work" like you're supposed to for galleries (laughing). You’re supposed to do a consistent body of work and I don't really do that. But I do enough landscaping painting because I love working outdoors. I do enough landscaping painting that I have a pretty consistent body of work for the show. </span></div>

I mostly do plein air painting. I take my portable easel and wear a hat for the sun!! I love being outside. There are some occasions when I can't do that, when I have to take a photograph and paint indoors.

I'm curious to see how color has worked thematically through the printing, the murals, the oil paintings and even the water colors. How does color affect you?</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #262626; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 15.333333333333332px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">AL: I love color. I initially started out in black and white when I was a printmaker. I started to learn about color when I took up fabric design. I took a course in fabric design and we had to learn about all the different color waves and I would do a pattern in more than one type of color scheme... Of course when I was at Tyler I had this teacher, Richard Cramer, who taught me watercolor in the summertime. I learned a lot from him about color. My other work that I do...that's a shaped piece of wood with someone walking on the beach with water.a There is a lot more work that I do that is similar to that. Some of it is abstract too. Those paintings I often take the grain of the wood and I emphasize the grain of the wood. Sometimes I take complementary colors and I use them in different ways with the grains of wood. </span></div>

If you started in printmaking that is very line oriented and now you've branched out to things that are expressive and free from line. Do you have any observations about that? </span></div>

The activity, the movements that I'm using with my body while I'm painting works in with the lines. So if you see this one print that has a white frame and it's up on the wall. It's called "Long Way Home". It's got a lot of activity, line and motion. It almost feels like finger painting but it's not. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Bucks County landscape artist <span style="color: #0b5394;"><a href="http://www.smitarao.com/">Smita Rao</a>'</span>s work is on display at the Carversville Grocery through the month of July. This fine exhibit features a series of monoprints that capture ethereal moments in time and place. The technique of m<span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; line-height: 22.4px;">onoprints is a printing method that involves painting on a plexiglass plate; they are essentially printed paintings.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-size: 13.3333px; line-height: 13.3333px; white-space: nowrap;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; line-height: 22.4px;">As a result of this method each print is a unique spontaneous expression that combines printmaking, painting and drawing media. </span>The following information is from Smita Rao's <a href="http://www.smitarao.com/">website </a>:</span><br />

So far the journey has had its joys and losses, its colors and its shade, its ups and its downs but there are some things that are constant: on her journey Susan has always had loving companions, laughter, and always creativity and joy. In the studio with Susan every day are her husband, artist James Feehan, and the doggies that inspire their art. </span></div>

Our community has shown that the feeling is mutual. When a fire destroyed Rosemoon Studio in 2005, the response was phenomenal. Susan notes that she and James still have a feeling of indebtedness to all the friends, neighbors, and artists who helped them get through that trying time; a time when they learned about loss but also the love of the community. </span></div>

Artie comes out from back with the nurses and he started rubbing his nose in my legs and he was just going "ehh, ehhh, ehhh" (plaintively whining), like he had a hard time, they had to put a muzzle on him and he didn't like it. And everybody in the room started laughing and Artie picked his head up and he went around the room and he went "ehhh, eh, eh eh, ehhhh" He was like, "I need to kvetch. I need to complain.

I remember when she first started it but she was always rescuing dogs before she started the organization. Like I said, it's just a way that I can give. I can give of myself and promote their cause. I've been doing it with other rescues. I'm working on a card for a rescue in New Zealand, a "grateful for you" card that they can give to their donors as a "thank you" for donating money. They can use my image for promotions. I'm trying to do more of that. Opening it up. Muttville.org is in San Francisco. I did one recently for Carrie's Rescue in upstate NY. So it's nice to be able to share the images; it's all about the dogs. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #565657; font-family: Lora, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; text-align: start;">The wood shop is a place where Max goes to unwind after a hectic week. The smell of dried woods and the anticipation of creating something out of a beautiful chunk of wood is so compelling. Max works with his hands all day long, chopping, slicing, and stirring, so using them to carve and turn a piece of wood on the lathe is a great departure from the usual and tremendously therapeutic!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #565657; font-family: Lora, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; text-align: start;">Each of Max Hansen Firewood spoon, spatula, and knife is one of a kind, hand-carved, and turned. Each has a food-safe finish so it’s not only a beautiful piece, but also a usable kitchen utensil as well. Until our web site is set up to take orders online, please stop by the Carversville Grocery to see the selection.</span></div>
