Yesterday I spent the second and last day of the 2021 Jingletown Open Studios at The Gray Loft Gallery and the studio of Susan Matthews.
Jan Watten, an interanationally renown photographer, is owner/operator of the Gray Loft Gallery with a BFA in Photography from the California College of Arts and Crafts. She savors using outdated film camers such as the Holga and pinhole cameras.
Photographer Jenny Sampson specializes in the wet plate Collodion Process to hand-make tintypes and traditional black and white photography.
Nicole White holds a BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art, an MA in Art History from the University of Connecticut and an MFA in Studio from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has collaborated on the book, Rolls & Tubes: A History of Photography, with Jenny Sampson.
For this exhibition, Jude Pittman did her drawings by 'finger painting' on an iPad to create unusual effects for what she calls her "Imaginary Portraits".
Susan Tuttle
Susan Tuttle
is a photographer, collage artist and jewelry designer. Her photographs
have a sense of whimsy about them that is subtle but her collage work
is outrageous; witness her cigar box with vintage bowling ball playing
card below.

I left the Gray Loft and ran down stairs to the studio of Susan Matthews; she is the subject of the next article on the 2021 Jingletown Open Studios.
