HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 🥳 Our January 2026 Artist of the Month is David Walter! David Walter took his first photograph, a self-portrait, at the age of two. Little could he have known how this would direct his life. After studying photography at the Academy Art University in San Francisco, David went to New York City to continue his training. Many more years were spent learning how to best express his thoughts and feelings through photography. After retiring from the School of Photography at RIT, David is now able to spend the time he desires to pursue his art. brockportartistsguild.org/davidwalter

Our August 2025 Artist of the Month is Marco Rodriguez! 🎨 #BrockportArtistsGuild #ROC #artsky

brockportartistsguild.org/marcorodriguez
It’s officially August, and what a BEAUTIFUL start! ☀️ Brockport Artists’ Guild’s August 2025 Artist of the Month is Marco Rodriguez! 🧑‍🎨🎨 Marco Rodriguez was born the son of poor migrant workers. As a young child, he remembers drawing for hours at a time; he drew everything from flowers, birds, farm animals, wildlife, Batman, Spiderman, martians, spaceships, and cool race cars. By age 13, he made his first oil painting. He took all the art courses he could in high school. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois and went on to a career at General Motors, managing design engineers and found a love for drawing cars and gears. Upon retiring, Marco started exploring making art with crayons, leading on to pastels, watercolor, acrylic, oil paint, ink, charcoal, and more! Marco still finds himself soul-searching for his preferred art style. brockportartistsguild.org/marcorodriguez

She enjoys making friends and creating new work for future shows in which she participates.

brockportartistsguild.org/adrianmorris
Adrian Morris is Brockport Artists’ Guild’s June 2025 Artist of the Month! Adrian Morris is an Irish-born artist living in Western New York. Though life brought him to the United States in 2008, Ireland remains at the heart of his identity. Oil painting is his primary medium. Deeply connected to his Celtic heritage, he draws inspiration from Ireland's landscapes, and from the spirit of its people. He also finds inspiration in the struggles and triumphs of figures like Frederick Douglas, and the musical genius of Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong. Adrian feels compelled to create. Ultimately, his greatest competition is himself. brockportartistsguild.org/adrianmorris

Our February 2025 Artist of the Month is Esther Kuhlkin! 👩‍🎨✍️ #BrockportArtistsGuild #ROC #rochesterny #supportartists

brockportartistsguild.org/estherkuhlkin
Brockport Artists’ Guild’s February 2025 Artist of the Month is Esther Kuhlkin! Esther Kuhlkin started out as a digital artist, though her main focus at present is in graphite. She has since learned all sorts of new and unexpected concepts through exercises in value and proportionality. Additionally, she began elective art classes at the start of the 2023-2024 school year, forcing her out of her comfort zone through the use of acrylic and watercolor. Esther enjoys learning new mediums and immersing herself in this field, and would love to one day enter a career path involved in art.

Melanie has been painting in retirement ever since she attended an art class in 2015 at the Parma Public Library.

She has also taken classes at Stony Point Art Studio.

A throwback post by Brockport Artists’ Guild. This image is a comparison of the guild’s original logo from 2010, versus the most recent rendition designed in September 2024. It keeps the integrity of the original design, with an updated, sleeker serif font; clean line work for increased usability and improved legibility across digital and print media, and higher resolution. Special thanks to current guild members Roger Dowd and Courtney Lee Hill (Courtney Lee Designs) for their graphic design expertise and hard work in making these imperative updates!

This digital art piece depicts a blue jay in flight with wings widespread. It’s made with ink brushes, and includes painstakingly tiny details using pointillism throughout its body.
