Beverly is a professional photographer who always had an interest in the creation of exceptional prints. From the time she was 10 or so, she had a camera in her hand at any event or when on vacation. She managed to take a number of photography courses in her working years and in 2006 she took up her lifetime passion as a profession. Beverly has studied with the Professional Photographers of America and also other on-line courses in many aspects of the profession and is a Certified Accuphoto photographer. Her main interest has always been a love of nature.  She lives and has her studio in Northern New York. Summertime in the Adirondacks and along the St. Lawrence River provides an abundance of inspiration for her. Traveling to other states is an ongoing pastime and provides a more rounded venue for her photos. Local scenes are captured for displays in gift shops and art galleries in the area. Gift shops in Singer Castle in the Thousand Islands and TAUNY, Picken’s General Store, and The Gallery at Lake St. Lawrence Arts in the Waddington, NY area carry some of her work.  She has been accepted into juried art shows at Frederick Remington Museum in Ogdensburg NY; Thousand Island Art Center in Clayton NY; the Art Center in Lake Placid, NY; SLC Arts, and Massena, NY Art Shows, Beverly has an ongoing Custom Framing business. She can provide economical as well as more elaborate frames and mats for any kind of framing need and does the framing herself.

Bev's Interview with Todd Moe, NCPR

Susan Riley, Weaver

At the age of 25 Susan observed a woman weaving on a loom. She was fascinated watching the threads become cloth and knew that this was something she wanted to learn. Her husband purchased a 68" floor loom for her birthday to start her on this path. The loom sat in her library for 20 years. At the age of 65 she retired and made a commitment to learn to weave.

 
 

She started with a beginning weaving class with Sonja Wahl at the Thousand Islands Handweavers Museum in Clayton. She was invited and joined the Wednesday Weavers group at the Museum. She found this an invaluable experience in both learning from these women but also sharing their lives together. She also contributes to working in the textile archives, helping with exhibits at the Museum, and teaching weaving.

 
 

In her weaving journey, Susan has added an amazing studio: 4 lovely looms and an enchanting stash of yarn. She loves the challenge of learning different weaving techniques specializing in weaving pieces for her home and textured wall hangings. She is fascinated with other cultures and her interest in weaving adds a new dimension to her traveling.

 
 

Susan lives outside Waddington on a 250-acre hobby farm with her husband. They enjoy renovating their stone house, gardening, and spending time with their 4-legged children.

Susan's Interview with Todd Moe, NCPR

Tina Siebel, Silversmith, Serendipity Creations

Tanya Spicer, Bead Weaving and Metals Jewelry Artist

Tanya Spicer, Bead Weaving and Metals Jewelry Artist


Tina started her journey in jewelry making with beads in 2005.  Several years later, she began selling at arts festivals in New York and in Florida.  Tina's biggest gratification comes from return customers, especially when they are wearing pieces purchased in previous years!


In 2014 at the Florida Society of Goldsmiths' Studio, Tina became "hooked" on silversmithing.  She began taking private lessons from Mary Ferrante, an accomplished silversmith, at her studio in New Smyrna Beach.  Many classes later, Tina now completes her own design and fabrication with sterling silver or argentium and stone setting.  Crediting her teacher with knowledge she so freely shared, Tina now does the same!  She has been mentoring young aspiring jewelry artists for many years and began teaching basic silversmithing many years ago!


"People ask me where I get my inspiration, and the truth is, from anything!"  My Serendipity Creations are just that.  They are ideas that start in my head, go through my heart and hands and ends with my eyes."

Tanya Spicer, Bead Weaving and Metals Jewelry Artist


Tanya is a lifetime North Country native, who grew up just outside of Massena, NY in a little neighborhood called "Baxterville".  She read a lot, played with the neighborhood kids, and really enjoyed watching her mom create beautiful items by crocheting, sewing, painting ceramics, and other crafts as well.

She married and had two children but felt compelled (probably from watching her mother enjoy these crafts) to make things by sewing, quilting, and crocheting baby items, household items and decorative pieces as well.  

Time went on, crafts were replaced by working full time jobs until her retirement in her early sixties.  She remembered a beautiful string of beads that her husband had and looked around for ways to make something beautiful with them.  Thus began the love of bead weaving to design little wall hangings, pouch covers, bookmarks, necklaces, and bracelets.  Her sister also moved back into the North Country and joined her in bead weaving as well!  While searching for beads and supplies on the internet and in stores, the sisters found other ways of making jewelry.  Through taking classes and watching videos, and learning from books and magazines, the two sisters learned to create with other metals as well.

She has had her jewelry sell in other venues in the area, and taught jewelry classes at the SLC Arts Council in Potsdam, NY.

Tanya, along with her sister, belongs to The Gallery at Lake Saint Lawrence Arts, a cooperative art gallery and artisan gift shop where she sells her work, teaches classes, and helps with running the gallery.
