About The Artists: |
Donald Allen Mosher, born in Malden, MA, spent his early years in Topsfield and Saugus, graduating from Vesper George School of Art in 1968. He
then worked as an illustrator and art director for 10 years, and has been an art teacher and demonstrator since 1969.
Mosher won his first prize
when he was nine years old, and since then has accumulated over 200 painting awards including the Gold Medal at the Guild of Boston Artiss. He has been
featured in several national publications such as Yankee Magazine and American Artist Magazine.
Don recently authored his first book, "The Seasons
of New England," depicting the many moods and changes in the seasons of the six states. Although Don's primary painting area is Cape Ann, he and his wife
travel extensively throughout Europe and the United States.
Don's style is reminiscent of the early Cape Ann artists such as Theime, Gruppe, Hibbard,
and Mulhaupt; these men were an offshoot of the American Impressionists.
Don loves to paint outdoors whether it's a foggy harbor scene or standing in
the snow in northern New England. Visual excitement and freshness are always present in his paintings, drawings, and watercolors. His work portrays an honest
look into his personal view of the world. |

the Massachusetts College of Art.
A member of the Board of Directors of the Rockport Art Association and a Copley Master, Christine is also a member of the North
Shore Arts Association, Oil Painters of America as well as the Academic Art Association, and has won over 100 local and national awards.
Christine and
her husband, artist Don Mosher, have painted on Cape Ann for the last 35 years. Her style reflects her own unique brand of realism. Christine not only spends
many hours planning and creating her works, but she also has input into the design of her frames, designing some of them herself. |
