from Montpelier High School in <strong>19</strong>55. After graduation he<br />

worked at both Montpelier High and Harwood Union High<br />

School, retiring after over 40 years.<br />

Returning for a second showing is abstract artist Maryellen<br />

Sullivan with “Abstraction Two”, a collection of photographic<br />

images from a recent trip to Europe. Her display is on the<br />

library’s second floor. These images says Sullivan, were in<br />

unusual places—a skateboard park, the decaying door frame<br />

of a tattoo shop, a billboard—among others, in London,<br />

Amsterdam, and Haarlem.<br />

Maryellen’s love for abstract photography came initially as<br />

inspiration for her paintings. However, the photographs soon<br />

took center stage. Sullivan discovers compositions by zooming<br />

in on a very small part of the larger object. In her compositions,<br />

Sullivan will move around the object to obtain different<br />

angles or to bring a shape or color to life.<br />

Retiring from an active law practice has allowed Sullivan<br />

to pursue her interest in art—both abstract painting and photography.<br />

She lives<br />

in Stowe with her<br />

husband and their<br />

two dogs.<br />

Both Corliss<br />

Griffith’s oil paintings<br />

and Maryellen<br />

Sullivan’s photography<br />

are for sale, and<br />

both works will be<br />

on display until<br />
