“I grew up traveling with my family. We lived in places as diverse as the Rocky Mountains, rural southern farming and fishing villages, and northern college towns. Exploring new places and meeting people from different backgrounds always excited me. Working with glass has introduced me to a community of diverse individuals and opportunity for travel.” Tony Faith lives with his wife, Cynthia, in the Pioneer Valley of western Massachusetts.  He earned a BFA cum laude from UMASS, Amherst in 2001. His interest in glass art began in 1997 as a freshman in college with an independent study at Lunt Silversmiths in Greenfield, MA.  After finishing school Tony worked for the glass artists Josh Simpson, Jenn Violette and Robert Dane. For the last ten years Tony has worked for Ed Branson in Ashfield, MA. Tony has studied at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts with Jose’ Chardiet and Jack Wax and at Pilchuck Glass School with Robbie Miller and John Drury. Tony has also taught classes at Snow Farm School for Crafts. Currently Tony sells his glass art at local galleries and regional craft shows. Meet Tony on Friday mornings at Tilton Library!

Pastel landscapes by Ashfield artist, Susan Gordon Hillier on display upstairs at the library through December.

Artist's Statement: I have an affinity for abstract expressionism, its use of gesture, the energy and spontaneity, the color fields and graphics that suggest the landscape.  In equal measure, I have always been struck by our need to slice, dice and structure the world around us from our gridded cities to the geometry we impose/compose on farm fields.  The Field Study and As If Series revolve around this relationship - the character of the organic and the equally relentless human desire for structure and design. All pieces are displayed on the second level of the library and are for sale to the public.  A portion of the proceeds benefit Tilton Library.
