Becky Albright
[email protected] www.facebook.com/MnFishArt/ beckyalbrightartist.com “As a fiber artist, I have always been fascinated by various surface design techniques. Applying this interest to gyotaku seemed a natural extension. I have been making gyotaku fish prints for several years. The first fish I rubbed was in my sister’s kitchen so I could record the size of a trophy walleye for my nephew’s visiting friend from Alaska. I now offer my original gyotaku art and reproductions for your enjoyment. I hope you appreciate nature’s beauty of fish as you see them up close and personal.” |
David Beddow
[email protected] “I started painting as a hobby a few years ago after being introduced to the process through art classes with my twin daughters. I enjoy the rural bucolic landscapes and the quiet lake scenes that are so abundant in Minnesota. I use mainly acrylic paints but have started to use oils more as I have gained more experience through practice and taking lessons. My plan is to continue to paint more as time allows and expand into abstract art also some day.” |
Coleen Behm
[email protected] “I have always appreciated color, texture, and working with my hands, however, a career as a social worker and raising our family were priorities during most of my adult life. In 2000 I took my first art class at Southwest State University in Marshall, MN. It didn’t take long for me to realize that I had a passion for pottery! My glaze choices tend to be colors that I see in nature and I fire my pottery in an electric kiln. My drawing and painting experience also has its origins at Southwest State University.” |

Judi Celaschi
[email protected] "The natural beauty of what God has created is everywhere! It’s not just what is initially visible to the eye, but what you as an artist can bring out in the composition that speaks to and enriches the viewers overall experience. Personally, I feel that art in all forms should be shared, providing satisfaction to the creator and bringing inspiration and joy to the viewer. Pablo Picasso, is quoted as saying “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” I couldn’t agree more!" |

Della Conroy
[email protected] “A musician by training, Della Conroy has also found a place in the visual art world. In building a collection of work that reflects her interest in the beauty found in Western Minnesota, she paints scenes depicting the grasses, trees, rivers, and lakes found in that area. She has a strong feeling for the prairie landscape which she enjoys exploring with different mediums. Her soft but colorful landscapes exude peace, serenity, and calm.” |
Shanna Cramer

Duane Dahlvang
[email protected] “Duane has always enjoyed being creative in different ways by drawing, building and painting pieces of furniture, setting up displays in his grocery stores and artistic landscaping. Many years ago, his brother-in-law gave him some raw gourds that he had grown in his backyard in Tucson, AZ. A few years later he came across a book showing various ways to enhance raw gourds, converting them to pieces of art. He has developed his own unique style and has taught his technique to many other gourd artists.” |
Peggy Dahlvang
[email protected] “Peggy took oil painting classes and has enjoyed painting on canvas for many years. Similar to her husband, Duane, she became interested in enhancing gourds and started painting, carving, and wood burning them. She uses several power tools for carving, a wood burner with a variety of burning pens, ink dyes, acrylic paints and transparent acrylics. She draws the designs on the gourds free-hand, burns the design and then applies the colors.” |
Janet DeMars
[email protected] “Janet DeMars began her career in ceramics and printmaking while completing a Fine Arts degree from the University of Minnesota. She worked as a production potter and exhibited prints, paintings, and mixed media throughout the Twin Cities before moving to Arizona twenty years ago. Her continued study of paintings has led to exhibits, sales, and commissions. She has recently studied with Rembrandt stylists Greg Kreutz and Joshuah Fallik.” |
Calvin deRuyter
[email protected] 763-486-5862 “I am a product of the Midwest. Home life remained structured, disciplined, and grounded in religious dogma. Schedules were rigid. Conformity was encouraged and valued. Exploration or experimentation, shunned and suspect. This ying-yang conflict affects me to this day. Often in my landscape painting, there is tension between the freedom of color and brush stroke against the solidness of the earth; the violence of the sky against a calm earth; or the chaos of earth against the serenity of the heavens. Sometimes I’m accused of painting two different paintings on the same sheet of paper – but in reality, I am painting the truth, the ying-yang that is deRuyter." |

Sylvia Dudycha
[email protected] “When ideas come to me, I must try them. I admire complex structures, but for me, color and texture have always been the key elements. Work is mostly in fiber using whatever technique is appropriate for the particular piece. There is always a new idea out there to pursue. I hope others enjoy using what I have enjoyed creating.” |
Dar Eckert
[email protected] "Dar Eckert received her BFA in Sculpture from Minnesota State University Moorhead in 2013 which was the realization of her lifelong dream. Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Eckert received a BS degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Minnesota and worked in the environmental field for over thirty years. During that time, she raised a family and remained active in the arts through classes and antique collecting. In 2010, she pursued a new career in sculpture and ceramics while producing pottery and working at Art of the Lakes Gallery. She primarily does raku firings with her ceramics and enjoys challenging herself with difficult processes. Her subjects range from landscapes to abstract designs and takes inspiration from places she has hiked." |
Judy Fairchild
[email protected] “My name is Judy Fairchild and I have joined the Art of the Lakes Family as a clay artist. I started my love of wheel thrown clay at the Owatonna Art Center 15+ years ago and admit to being addicted. My husband and I spend the winters South in Owatonna, MN and the summers north at Dead Lake in Dent, MN where I became aware of the Art of the Lakes Gallery. I have been inspired by the artists I have met through AOTL and Owatonna Art Center to pursue this craft. I hope to enjoy my association with AOTL for many years and become inspired by the very talented artists I have met there.” |
Diana Fuder
[email protected] "In college Diana was able to study art from well-known artist, Charles Beck. She has recently been taking workshops through art of the lakes which she believes has really helped to further her career as an artist. She currently works with watercolor and resin." |
Ruth Hanson
[email protected] "Having an artistic mother who nurtured her creativity, Ruth has been making art from a young age. While studying for an art education degree she also found an interest in church art and even taught photography in Vienna as an undergrad. Currently she works mostly with watercolor batik and occasionally oil pastels. Her subjects tend to be centered around nature and landscapes, being particularly drawn to the beauty of the natural world. Ruth found herself at our gallery presenting her photographs after student teaching abroad. Once Ruth and her family settled down in Vining, she eventually started showing her amazing pieces at Art of the Lakes." |
Jean Harney
jeanharneyart.com "Over 35 years ago I began painting in oils on canvas or masonite. Several years later I discovered acrylic paints and loved acrylics on paper and gradually switched over to watercolors which is now my medium of choice. Along the way I learned the printmaking form of serigraphy (silk screen) and interchanged that with painting for about fifteen years. After many years, the hard physical work that comes along with serigraphy caused me to give up the practice. However, I still paint and enjoy my summers on Ottertail Lake.” |
Grace Haverty
[email protected] “Growing up in the New York City area afforded Grace the opportunity to visit the Brooklyn Museum of Art as well as the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Although she loved art she never even gave a thought to pursuing a career in that field. Grace worked for an advertising agency on Madison Avenue until she and her husband Michael were married and moved to the Chicago area. She started taking art lessons when her children were very young. After years of studying, Grace is now a signature member of the National Watercolor Society, Transparent Watercolor Society of America, American Watercolor Society, Pastel Society of America Master Pastelist, and more.” |
Annette Hochstein
[email protected] “Annette Hochstein lives near Battle Lake, MN. Born and raised in Omaha, NE, she has always had a great interest in art. Photography, collages, painting, and mosaics are just some of the mediums she has worked with. In July 2004, she directed a community art project, sponsored by Art of the Lakes, which has resulted in the creation of a mosaic mural. This mosaic can be seen at the corner of Lake Avenue and Main Street in Battle Lake. Recently, she has devoted most of her time to working on mosaics - the art form that she feels is her passion.” |
Barbara Johnson
[email protected] “Since getting my first digital camera in 2003, I have been taking pictures in earnest. Initially this was mostly confined to family pictures, especially my grandchildren. In 2008, we took a trip to China that started my love for world travel and photographing all that we saw in able to share the events with others. Since then, I have taken many classes and workshops from professional photographers in order to improve my skills. Living in Minnesota provides a wonderful plethora of opportunities for wildlife photography, including loons, egrets, great blue herons and much more. It is a joy to share my love of travel and nature with others through my photographs." |
Phyllis Joos
[email protected] “My ‘hobby’ became a way of life and the art often becomes an obsessive passion but the most joy comes in the creation. When I begin a piece I usually have an idea of what I want it to look like but then it takes on a life of its own as the piece progresses. The usual themes in my work relate to women, aging, personal experiences and the intricate interaction between human life and nature. I work in a varied range of printmaking processes but prefer etching. The imagery is often in a colorful palette with multi layers and textures.” |
Rose Kranz
[email protected] "I am inspired by classic architectural details... however, you won't see anything classic here and we can't call this fine woodworking! Oddly, I'm not offended. I have an uncontrollable desire to rescue items that are headed for the trash. I see beauty in the brokenness. I believe most people have become way too serious and have forgotten the importance of being playful, following joy, and laughter. I aim to make you smile, giggle and even look puzzled while guessing the intended pun and the original purpose of the gem (or junk if you prefer). If you find something you would like to preserve, I would love to collaborate with you! Follow your joy!" |
Kristi Kuder
[email protected] “False facts. Fake news. Alternative history. How do people deal with the contradictory, uncertain, and illogical aspects of life in a highly systematic and self-evident society? As a sculptor and installation artist, I apply fiber and textile processes to wire and wire mesh in response to these diametric conditions. My work is often about the illusory boundaries and deceptive places in our lives—our incongruent memories, biased sense of reality, and conflicted relationship with nature and the world at large. I’m intrigued by the process of comprehension and understanding within this context.” |
Nancy Little
[email protected] "I started painting about 5 years ago. We live in Maple Grove and spend summers at our lake home a mile outside Battle Lake on West Battle Lake. I mostly work in watercolors, but started in oils. I pay closer attention to shapes and colors. I also work with glass making mosaics yard and garden art." |
Lyssa Lovejoy, Lovejoy Fine Arts

She uses her art to foster resilience in people and help them to understand their own stories. Lyssa has trained with Pathways in Minneapolis, which has been a catalyst to deepen her experience using the arts to heal. She runs programming in county correctional facilities, schools and other organizations that provide trauma support. Lyssa works out of her studio in Evansville, Minnesota. |
John Mehl
[email protected] “I’m John Mehl, a member and displaying artist at the AOTL Gallery since 2007. I started out as a Scandinavian style wood carver, making characters, spoons and bowls. The Battle Lake street bench project in 2014 introduced me to glass mosaic, which I have emphasized since that time. I'm a Breckenridge, MN native who grew up in a multi-generation floral business. After school, the military and college, I spent a career in accounting and computers, while living in the Twin Cities. My wife, Ann, and I then retired to a lake home near Battle Lake. We've now left that life style behind us and now live in Fergus Falls. I continue to work with glass mosaics and occasionally do a little Carving." |

Elyse Olson
I am a NDSU graduate with a Bachelor’s in Computer Science. I have a minor in Statistics and in Gerontology. I have worked as a Program Director at Rebuilding Together Fargo Moorhead Area and am currently a driver for Clay County Social Services. I take clients to their appointments and family visits. I am facilitating NAMI Connections support group on Mondays at St Genevieve’s Place in Fargo, ND. I have been a facilitator since 2010 when I became trained and certified by NAMI. At age 17 at the Decorah, IA Norwegian Festival, I was awed and inspired by the intricate fine cut hooked wool tapestries displayed from the local rug school. The artistic expression motivated me to learn everything there was about this art medium. It is what drives me today - more than 40 years later. I am now a certified McGown teacher. I sell my hooked tapestries at Art of the Lakes in Battle Lake, MN and demonstrate throughout the year. |
Jodi Peterson
7013612982 [email protected] www.wolfnestglassworks.com “I find glass to be an exciting medium. I have been working with glass for over 18 years and started Wolfnest Glassworks about the same time I fell in love with glass. I blow glass occasionally and mostly slump, fuse, and do flame worked pieces from beads to small sculpture. Glass is amazing, when it hot it moves like molasses and when cold it’s solid. Light gets refracted through glass to show dazzling color. When I work with glass, there seems to be a kinship with ancient glass artisans that touches me on a soul-filled level.” |
Vicky Radel
3203043907 [email protected] www.vickyradelartist.com/ “Although I have always had an active interest in the arts, it has only been the last 10 years that I have actively engaged in artistic pursuits. I started with photography and various classes in painting and mixed media. It wasn’t until I took classes in encaustic painting that I felt she had found “my” medium. I was finally able to achieve the look and the feel I had been looking for and I was thrilled. I have further integrated use of R&F pigment sticks and photography and other pigment sources into my work and consider myself a mixed media artist with a focus in encaustic painting. In my experience with encaustic painting, the medium itself is as much a participant in the process as my own ideas. We work as co-creators of each painting. I am often surprised by the interactions of heat with the pigmented wax which will move and shape with my guidance, yet, often give birth to a texture or blending of color that is unexpected. The process is an interactive and interesting journey of discovery and joy. I live in the country with my husband and chickens and draw inspiration from the beauty of the prairie that surrounds me.” |
Marcella Rose
[email protected] marcellarose.com/ "Marcella Rose traces her artistic roots and love for the natural world back to her formative years growing up on a western Minnesota farm.

Jan Smith
[email protected] “Jan Smith, a Battle Lake area resident for the last 11 years, displays two different forms of art at the Art of the Lakes Gallery. These two venues are writing and illustrating a historical novel and Scherenschnitte (or Wycinanki). She has written a book titled Rambling ‘Round Maine which is a fictional look at the daily life of a homesteading family of five in the year 1890, the year Phelps Mill began production. Scherenschnitte and Wycinanki is the art form of paper cutting. She learned the intricate form for her parents and has been practicing ever since.” |
Mary Smith
515 Jefferson St., Unit 102, Alexandria, MN 56308 [email protected] 859-489-3145 (mobile/text) "My basket weaving adventure began during the 12 years we lived in northern Kentucky, where this craft/art is a time-honored tradition and nearly every county has a basket weavers guild. My husband and I moved back to our home state of Minnesota in May 2011 where I have continued to learn new techniques and perfect my skills. Professionally, I am a member of the Headwaters Basket Weavers Guild, the Minnesota Basket Weavers Guild and the National Basketry Organization. I have baskets for sale at the Art of the Lakes Gallery in Battle Lake, MN and at Three Havens Gallery in Alexandria, MN. It is a pleasure to share the experience of basket weaving through small-group instruction and seeing the look of satisfaction on a person’s face when their basket is completed." |
Mary Stich
[email protected] "The natural beauty around Battle Lake is astonishing! As a new member of this amazing community, I am in awe of the breathtaking views of the lakes area. I am constantly in search of capturing artistic moments with a camera lens or paintbrush. Living on the North Shore of West Battle Lake is like living a wonderful dream! The hues of the sky at sunrise and sunset are filled with visual beauty! Canvas photographs and layered acrylic paintings are my passion. West Battle Lake and Glendalough State Park create my inspiration." |
Dan Thimgan
2188625594 [email protected] “For many years, I have enjoyed crafting original, copper foil technique glass creations — from windows and sun catchers to kaleidoscopes, mobiles, and stained glass accent lights. Apparently, I like to break glass into little pieces and then reassemble them. My wife, Sandra, and I are longtime residents of the Battle Lake area. In our former lives, we were educators.” |
Sandra Thimgan
2188625594 [email protected] “I have always been interested in creating — my methods of creating have changed many times over the years. Presently my passions include creating unique jewelry using chainmaille, repurposed silverware, and especially hand building original fine silver and copper pieces. I also enjoy paper arts including origami, paper cutting, handmade cards, and book folding. I am always looking for new ways to be involved in artistic creation.” |
JB Varner
“Photography has been a passion of mine since taking a photo class in high school. At Ohio State University, I took photography classes around my science and physics courses whenever possible. Over the years, I shifted careers, moving from medical research to starting my own creative company where I was the lead web developer, graphic designer, photographer, and video producer. While living in Colorado, I married a public relations consultant! Together we own Cactus Creative, a PR and Marketing firm that allows me to utilize my skills assisting companies grow their businesses. In the past few years, I have started to create “digital art”. I use various software programs to alter “standard” photos, creating hybrid images that start with one or more photos and end up with a composite that has painterly, sometimes impressionist qualities. I use a variety of techniques and software programs for each image to add new textures, digitally add elements to an image, or combine multiple photos into a totally new scene. I call the result a DigiScape. These DigiScapes are available online (CactusCreativeArts.com) and in Arizona and Minnesota galleries. For a digital artist, ambient light is no longer the controlling factor. Rather, digital artists create and modify all the lighting, color, textures, and various elements in a scene to craft a final product. I love exploring creative digital techniques and discovering new workflows to produce fun, sometimes surreal scenery. Summers are spent at our Leaf Lake cabin in Minnesota where I shoot local scenery, create new DigiScapes and work/display at the Art of the Lakes Gallery, a 60-year-old gallery (the best in western Minnesota). A Murphy bed in a spare room folds up to become a computer desk for my digital studio. Works great except when we have guests. DigiScapes printed on Chromalux (metal) especially attract a lot of attention in galleries. From a distance, the DigiScapes look like a regular photo, but upon closer inspection, people are surprised to see the flowing brush strokes that make up the image. Good to stand out right? It’s great fun to work in the gallery and see visitors stop and try to figure out what they are viewing. In many cases, ‘patrons’ are compelled to return to the gallery to buy a DigiScape. Cheers!” |
Michael Weatherly
6123851851 [email protected] mweatherly56235.wix.com/michael-weatherly www.facebook.com/Michael-Weatherly-Artist-645964185494648/ “I do not set out to produce art about one subject matter. I am constantly inspired by everyday events and my work tends to focus on things that reminds us of the natural world, things we see, people we have met, and places we have been. Art can speak to all of us, it can lift spirits, provoke memories, create emotions and connect the past to the present. I am mainly a printmaker working with mono-prints, wood and linoleum cuts. For me creating is a liberating experience, I love to see the effect of pressure and ink on the paper. I am currently working on a new series of large scale wood, linoleum, and mixed media prints. These large prints will range from 2/4/8 feet wide and 8/12/16 feet long would consist of both two-dimensional wall base prints and three-dimensional prints mounted on columns and other structures. I have recently been incorporating chine collé into my prints. Chine-collé is a special technique in printmaking, in which the image is transferred to a surface that is bonded to a heavier support in the printing process. One purpose is to allow the printmaker to print on a much more delicate surface, such as Japanese paper or linen, which pulls finer details off the plate.” |
Donna Westerling
[email protected] “Donna Westerling has been on a journey of self discover, spirituality, creativity, and healing for many years. In 1998, she discovered watercolor as a way to deal with the grief following the death of her father. It is through this that her world expanded and she has never looked back. ‘My hope is that others will enjoy my gift of art as I have… My paintings are inspired by others, prayer, and meditation. I love to paint landscapes, flowers, and angels. I find that there is always light that, to me, gives hope, tranquility, healing, and peace.’” |
Mary Williams
[email protected] “At the end of a gravel road in rural Minnesota is the place Mary sculpts and calls home. Although her first love is stone she. also creates in clay and bronze. The core of Mary’s work is abstract and figurative. Through simplicity of design and flowing lines she entices the viewer to handle the finished piece. Mary received her formal training at the Art Institute of Chicago. Over the years she has taken and given many classes, exhibited works in many shows, and received numerous awards. Mary received a Lake Region Art Council/ McKnight foundation Individual Artist grant in 1994 and the prestigious Lake Region Arts Council/ McKnight Foundation Fellowship in 2000. In 2002, Mary was selected to sculpt a limestone monument, celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Otter Tail County Historical Society. The piece, a life-sized limestone sculpture of a seated Ojibwa woman, overlooks West Battle Lake from her scenic spot in Halvorson Park.” |
