Visitors cannot park in the Whisper Hill parking lot. They will be towed.
After years of making abstract work “on the side”, I add finally giving not its full do, working, and playing with paint, pencil, crayon and all sorts of other media to make paintings and collage, mostly on a small, intimate scale, having fun with color, movement, and mark-making

Evoking uplifting, nurturing, and feelings of joy is the goal in my artwork. The viewer can find their own connection with each piece, via vibrant colour palettes, and interesting markings. In today’s world, we all need something that puts a smile on our faces. My hope is that my artwork produces that smile.

Combining found elements with those fashioned by my own hand, my work encompasses two- and three-dimensional collage as well as sculptural objects. The essence of my work lies in the age-old struggle between nature and the man-made industrial world. My work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. I have taught at Parsons School of Design, Pratt Institute and the SVA.
My world is of Earth and Spirit. Nature is at once a deep source of inspiration and a comforting healer. The light which radiates from and about the subject is what I am moved to capture. I try to express the essence – the spirit of a place, a person, a moment in time.
1 North Street, Hastings-on-Hudson
Drawing, painting and collage on paper is my language. Humor, gesture, color, design and line form my content. I love what I do and I do what I love. Come by and see!

15 Walnut Street, Dobbs Ferry
I was born and raised in Wales and much of my work is influenced by my childhood. I use old family photographs as inspiration along with anything that evokes a sense of nostalgia: antiques, historical buildings or settings, vintage ephemera. I work with watercolor and acrylic and also create paintings digitally.
My work mainly consists of photographic objects that have been extracted from their original work and placed into a new setting…the objective is to create a surrealistic images with odd inhabitants and strange objects within the boundaries of a photograph
Hagar’s art asks questions about the relationship of the body to an ‘environment’ in both a physical and metaphorical sense. Her material and photographic exploration of this relationship defines and shapes it. She uses plexiglass as the holding structure of her pieces, and her process involves painting, tracing, adhering objects, melting and scratching its surface.
