<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Multi-mused and Bemused</span></u></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"> – art as a lifestyle by Andrea Miller Theisson<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A show of paintings, etc. at the
Blue Parrot Bistro, 35 Chambersburg St., Gettysburg, PA from January 15 – March
29, 2014<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></b><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">This exhibit of paintings and collage,
mostly new, reflects a life full of magic and nature.<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><o:p></o:p></b></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Andrea’s guiding orientation has always been Nature and
landscapes, yet her faith in improvisation (as a direct link to the most
authentic expression of the unconscious) often results in abstracts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As a mature painter who first studied under
Abstract Expressionists, her belief is shared among contemporary late 20<sup>th</sup>
-21<sup>st</sup> Century painters.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Theisson
holds a degree in Fiber Art and Painting from the Tyler School of Art,
Phila.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Age has brought much reflection,
much amusement to this paintweaver.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Life
is full of art, explorations, and wonder.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It helps to stay amused and fascinated.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>And, there are always surprises, especially if you think you know
Andrea’s “style.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">This collection of work is about fundamental, primal,
restorative nature.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some of this is seen
in myths and metaphors, some is portrayed in simple imagery of an artist
through the seasons.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is more
figurative work than usual for Theisson.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There are small talismans, omens and portents – the magic of life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The artist sees the Positive as protection
and survival.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Beauty has a rich power
all its own, supported by deep layers of psychic loam, associations and many
years of synthesis.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Each canvas is a unique
journey.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Possibilities change with each
work of art.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All are a separate
adventure honed by years of mindfulness and awareness of the spirit of painting,
techniques that create an impression that can only be filtered through an
individual.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">As a professional Tapestry weaver, this painter is quite
aware of layers and textures, often working with many glazes-over-glazes, or scriffito
over translucent washes, then palette knife, and sometimes collage.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mixed Media is always an option, along with
assemblage. The mark of an artist’s hand is something that cannot be
mass-produced, digitalized, or ignored.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Enjoy these works in person, let them evoke your own
interpretations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is art in a
traditional, sensual, and always original one-of-a-kind format.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">The Blue Parrot Bistro is owned by old friends of the artist–
sisters Holly Giles and Alison McIllhenney . They have cultivated a perfect
place for the kind of artists’ ambiance that locals and visitors love.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Andrea Theisson curated and promoted their
first series of art exhibits over 25 years ago when the Bistro first opened, in
1988, featuring many regional artists.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It has been a constant place for art-events since those years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Painter Anne Finucane of Chambersburg is now
the coordinator for the Blue Parrot art shows which are such a part of regional
culture and will feature First Friday art receptions in February and March.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">The
show can also be viewed during regular restaurant hours which are <span class="aqj">Tuesday</span> through <span class="aqj">Thursday</span> from <span class="aqj">11:30am-2 pm</span> and <span class="aqj">5-9 pm</span>, and <span class="aqj">Friday</span> and Saturday from 11:30am-2pm and 5-9:30 pm.</span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Holding on tight with my agenda- just had to get another part-time job at the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Hauser Estate Winery</span>, inspiring views and mountain-top ambiance make it ideal for an artist! My vineyard series of paintings, many done on site with my Landscape class, is for sale at the downtown tasting room at <span style="font-weight: bold;">17-on-the-Square in Gettysburg, PA</span>. New work is coming to resolution..."branching out" into some 3-D wood sculptures, a new series of paintings and some smaller tapestries. Workshops at <span style="font-weight: bold;">the Mannings </span>are in the works - one basics class will be offered in <span style="font-weight: bold;">July this summer of '09</span>, more info pending! Meanwhile, here are some works for sale!

Also have planned a one-person show of paintings at Sparky & Clarke's Coffee Bar in center-city York, PA for May-June. AND one or two Landscape Workshops for early June, before it gets too hot...will also be teaching at the Mannings National Handweaving School again, the first week of August, Tapestry Basics- Tangents and Techniques! This is always a great experience, with students from all over the country! I feel "at home" in Manning's studios, and the camaraderie is always excellent...fiber art folks rock! Details will follow!

Another artist, in the out-lands, playing hardball with a conservative area that is, inevitably HOME. I am a native of this area, yet have traveled and/or lived on the West Coast (Santa Cruz mts.), New Mexico, Florida, Vermont, Maine, and Philadelphia (Tyler School of Art) in the late '60s...whew!<br />I am a "paintweaver," as critically dubbed by methodical landscape painter Neil Welliver during a fellowship I was awarded at the Vermont Studio Center. (I loved this - it is now on my cards!!!) Logical, really - I have a fine arts degree in Textiles, and I specialize in Tapestry, teaching at the Manning's National Handweavers' School, as well as Painting in acrylics, mostly. My style is organic expressionism.<br />And I teach privately, and sometimes at Harrisburg Area Community College in Gettysburg and Bradley Academy of Visual Arts in York. I "do" mixed media, watercolor, murals....and conservation and displays, consultations. Museum studies are a second interest, and I have enjoyed teaching some local architectural and "backyard archaeology" courses.<br />I am just recovering from the intensity of 6 years of homeschooling (like mother, like son - the system just didn't work for us) and financially re-grouping. My studio is open by appointment - contact me through this site!<br />Join me in this blog, as an Art Forum; an outlet for all the thoughts that I wish I could share with other professional free-lancers, a place to share discoveries and delights in the art realm, and explorations in philosophy and life!
