Photography has been my retirement enjoyment for the past 13 or 14 years. I have always been taking photos as long as I can remember. I think the passion came from my mother who took many slide photos in her travels. However, years of employment and child rearing left little time for dedication to the art. In 2005, while in Florida for the winter, I noticed an ad for the convention of the Professional Photographer's of America and that started my current destiny. I have been included in many juried shows including the Frederick Remington, Thousand Island Art Center, Lake Placid Art Center, The Gallery at Lake Saint Lawrence Arts, Massena Art Group, SLC Art shows and have sold in most of them. I am also currently doing custom framing on a large and continuing basis. It is an interesting and functional offshoot of my business. I look forward to continuing my passion for many years to come.

Potsdam-based artist Catherine LaPointe-Vollmer creates impressionistic landscape paintings in soft pastel as well as retro-inspired graphic posters. Her work centers on the effects of light and shadow on the landscape, with a particular focus on the distinct character and personality of trees.
Catherine grew up in the North Country surrounded by rivers, trees, and mountains. She developed a love of hiking and adventuring early on, and naturally sought to capture the views she found and put them to paper.
After completing internships with the Florence International Theater Company in Italy and Illustration House in New York City, Catherine earned her BFA in Illustration at Syracuse University. She moved back north to establish her freelance practice. A frequent traveler, her love of the natural world grew with each place she visited. This led her to a practice of plein air painting on location, and a focus on landscape art. She recently visited her 40th US national park, creating artwork inspired by her trips.
Currently Vice-president SLC Arts Board of Directors
I am a painter working primarily in watercolor. For the past ten years my passion has been for plein air landscape. Working directly from nature gives an unparalleled connection to my subjects. I enjoy the challenges presented by the fluid medium of watercolor. Working with it is a living dialog between artist and medium. As John Marin said you need to "let the paint be paint." One of my primary artistic goals is inspired by Miss Alice Rumphius who wanted to do something to make the world a more beautiful place.
I have always had a passion for Art and have been creative in one capacity or another my whole life. I used to dream about making pottery when I was a little girl making mud pies and dishes that would not endure the test of time. Once, I even drew a diagram of my future home studio.
After earning a bachelor degree in visual arts, I decided it was time to really focus my efforts on my creative side and start working towards my dream of being a potter one day. But Pottery is not a cheap art to pursue, it's an investment in time, energy and money. So for a while I explored other mediums, oil painting, and working with stain glass. All the while, never loosing sight of my dream to learn about pottery. Then I decided to take a pottery class at Blu Seed Studios in Saranac Lake; this was about nine years ago. As I had believed I would, I loved it. At that point I started working towards building my own home pottery studio, which I have had now for about six years.
Creating Pottery is a lot of work, it takes time, and I feel there is alway more to explore and I have a long way before I would call myself a 'master Potter', but I am enjoying the process, and have learned a lot in this journey, and I never tire of building new things and trying new techniques. There is something magical about the process of creating with clay, always something more to learn and explore. I sometime think of that little girl who who made mud pies, cakes and dishes and was disappointed when the rain came and washed them away. Those days are long gone and I can now call myself a Potter.

Evelyne Verret is a visionary artist, Intentional Creativity® teacher, and transformational guide. Her work bridges the mystical and the deeply human. Through her intuitive painting process, she channels archetypal energies, symbolic imagery, and alchemical insight to invite viewers into a deeper dialogue with themselves. Each brushstroke becomes a portal, one that awakens, heals, and reconnects us to the parts of ourselves we’ve forgotten or left behind.
Evelyne’s work is rooted in the belief that creativity is a sacred act, and that art can be both a mirror and a medicine. Her signature style blends vivid colors, layered textures, and feminine archetypes that speak to the wild, wise, and wounded parts of the soul. As an artist-healer, she sees painting not just as visual expression, but as ceremony, a space to grieve, to reclaim, to celebrate, and to remember our wholeness.
Evelyne has guided hundreds of women through transformative painting journeys in her studio and online circles, helping them transmute doubt into confidence, silence into voice, and pain into purpose.
She is currently developing new offerings that blend intentional creativity, embodiment, storytelling, and sacred feminine wisdom to support others in returning to the essence of who they truly are, radiant, messy, powerful, and whole.
My name is Jennie Cougler, and I am the owner of JSC Photography in Canton, NY. Photography is my passion, and I have been a “picture taker” for about ten years. My photography journey began when I lived on the west coast in Portland, OR. Having spent a handful of years in the Pacific Northwest, there was no shortage of gorgeous scenery and interesting people to photograph. I had always been fascinated by the digital arts and one day I decided to give it a go! I purchased my very first DSLR camera (the trusty old Canon T5 Rebel, which I still have) and set out to photograph some of the most beautiful scenery in the country. From the abundant tulip fields and gorgeous coastal scenery of the PNW, and on to the breathtaking backdrop that is the Adirondacks, there is no shortage of subjects to provide myself with inspiration.Since moving back to the east coast, I have developed a knack for portraiture and studio photography and that is the focus of my business. My work consists of building sets for unique themed portraits, general studio photography, and rich portraiture in both natural and urban settings. My work is typically bold in color with an artistic and often moody feel, yet customizable to the liking of my clients. I also enjoy personal projects and often develop collections just for fun to be enjoyed by all.I am excited to be part of the SLC Arts as I value the work the organization does within the community and the opportunities it provides to local artists. I look forward to this partnership and the collaboration for many years to come.My husband Jacob and I share a home in Canton with our two Corgis Toby and Penelope, and our chunky kitty, Carl.
