“In my time as an artist, I have been fortunate enough to have had many positive experiences in life and with my art. I have had numerous solo and group exhibitions as well as having been featured in various local and regional publications. Some of these include Solo Exhibitions, Left Bank Home and Garden, Mirabelle’s, the Teresa Davis Studios at the S.E.B.A Center, Seven Days, the Burlington Free Press, The Daily Planet, the South End Art Hop, and the Art’s Alive Festival (2013 second place winner).”
“My work is a practice relating to the phenomenology of revelation. I make these images through a careful study of the objects in my internal awareness. My method involves holding extremely detailed imagery in my mind's eye. From this focusing process, I then translate the revelations as imagery and story. What manifests is my Magnum Opus: a work in progress that is intended to be a graphic novel and a movie. Of the Timeless Go-Between is the working title for the project. These images are hand-illustrated through a collection of mediums in the tradition of Outsider Art.”

Fidget Artwork was born the day Cassi no longer cared about finding the “perfect” medium. Finger-painting, collage, acrylic, photography—she loves it all! Heavily inspired by a wide variety of music and an adoration of nature, Fidget Artwork is an ever growing collection of eclectic pieces as unique and unpredictable as the Vermont weather.

Artist Chime ZerØ hails from the small town of Derby in the North East Kingdom of Vermont. Art has always been a passion of Chime ZerØ. Ever since he was old enough to hold a pencil, Chime ZerØ was drawing and painting. He refined his artistic skills throughout his schooling, always doodling in his notebooks. It was in college, where he studied Art History, that Chime ZerØ was influenced by all the art movements that has helped him create his style. The work of Chime ZerØ is a combination of past artistic movements. He has the fine brush strokes of the Renaissance mixed with the fast brush strokes of the French Impressionists. Drips and splatters of Abstract Expressionism along with elements of Pop Art and Graffiti can be found throughout all his work. Chime ZerØ has a unique flare while staying true to the artistic roots.
Vincent Sebastian (1991, Bartow, FL) is a local artist who specializes in traditional mixed media drawings.
Originally from New Jersey, Wiley comes to Burlington via Washington DC, where one of the first things he noticed was the incredibly unique architecture. Nowhere he'd been before had such amazing murals, colorful rowhouses, soaring bridges and adorable neighborhood haunts. They inspired him to begin memorializing the art and architecture of the city, a practice he continues now in his new home state of Vermont.
“Painting brings joy! I hope to share some of that joy and light through my watercolor and acrylic display. I grew up in Rockport, Massachusetts. The majestic ocean and sky brought my desire to paint watercolor. Living on the coast and being around such beauty brought lots of inspiration. I have explored many mediums, but have found that watercolor has a gentle flow that is very meditative. Acrylics have been fun to play with and have allowed me to be bold and loose at times.
October is Co-op Month and Farm to School Month! City Market is using the Member Art Wall to celebrate one of its most treasured goals: to reduce childhood hunger in our community. While our adult Members were celebrating at Member Meeting on September 17, our younger Members were creating a beautiful collaborative printed canvas highlighting their favorite healthy snacks at the Co-op.
