Night & Day featuring Dawn Crispi Cohen, Lynne Deragon & James Fenton

June 22 - August 18, 2024
Opening Night Reception: June 22, 4-6pm

Dawn Crispi Cohen
Dawn has been sketching since childhood, focusing on animals, flowers, and friends. Her self-taught acrylic paintings have won multiple awards and commissions for collector plates, prints, and art cards. Her work captures everyday beauty, making her a beloved artist in many homes.

Lynne Deragon
Lynne’s artistic journey began in childhood but took a backseat to her career in acting, singing, and songwriting. Thirteen years ago, she moved to Warkworth and rekindled her passion for painting. The pandemic inspired her to develop a daily art practice, leading to a renewed focus on her creative roots.

James Fenton
James began their artistic education at Humber College for ‘Creative Photography’ before graduating from OCA in 1995. After a successful career in advertising, they spent the last five years rediscovering their love for art. Inspired by the campy aesthetics of Saturday morning Buffalo 29’s ‘Monster Theatre,’ they create large-format charcoal drawings that blend perspective, light, and composition with local Warkworth landmarks.

Night & Day promises a diverse and dynamic showcase of artistic talent, from Dawn’s vibrant acrylics to Lynne’s expressive paintings and James’ dramatic charcoal drawings. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the creativity and passion of these three exceptional artists.
