The Featured Artist is Judith Secco, a native of Connecticut's Northwest corner and former member of Gallery 25. She is an avid self-taught photographer. She began with an in-home darkroom focusing mainly on black and white images and later realized a passion for digital photography. Developing her own technique using layers, textures and composites, she uses her artist eye to create unique still life images. Shooting a variety of subjects, Secco's work finds its balance between photography and fine art. She has won numerous awards for her work which has been shown throughout New England. She prints all her framed and matted pieces are using archival inks and paper. Most frames are created by her husband, James, adding a beautiful finishing touch to each piece.
