Visiting Artists

November 2025 - February 2026

  • Janet Cocchiaro

    Painter

    Janet Kent Cocchiaro has lived in Holderness New Hampshire for over twenty-five years.  Her inspiration comes from the beautiful natural world around her, especially her garden, the fields and woods near her house and White Oak Pond.  She is fascinated with the constantly changing colors, textures and light both on and near the pond.  Her first medium was printing with foam plates, but she has been experimenting with acrylics, water color crayons, soft pastels, and collage.

  • Marguerite Bride

    Watercolorist

    Marguerite Bride is a watercolorist who has been painting for about 30 years. Her images include intricate cityscapes, landscapes, house and business portraits, historic scenes and so much more. A true New Englander, she is particularly fond of painting snowy winter scenes. Her style is realistic but “painterly”. Her paintings include traditional watercolor on paper and also on canvas which provides a very different look and feel. Bride moved last May from the Berkshires in western MA to Plymouth, NH.

  • Avia Robinson

    Painter

    Avia Robinson is a High School student based in Southwick, Massachusetts, with a passion for both art and the environment. Avia spends much of her year in Rumney, New Hampshire, in her family's seasonal cottage. During her time there, she's discovered the wonders of local wildlife, which are now often depicted in much of her art. She hopes that the themes of conservation she incorporates into her art will enable others to appreciate the importance of protecting local and diverse wildlife.

  • Chloe Springis

    Painter

    Chloe Springis is a painter living in Plymouth, NH. Her work comes from a very humble and selfish act of looking inward. Her paintings are a momentary reflection on memories she feels to be important. Her paintings seek to portray a whimsical, feminine, dream space, reminiscent of dead shadows gone by and fleeting moments of sheer gratitude.
