About the Creators
Mary Woodall-Jappe
Mary Woodall-Jappe has returned to a childhood fascination with colored glass after a career in biomedical research. She loves working with glass, a medium that offers almost limitless possibilities. After learning some basic techniques with blown glass, she was captivated by the less well known techniques of kiln-formed fused glass. After a bit of formal instruction, she got a kiln and started experimenting, and has never looked back. Mary has exhibited pieces at numerous local venues, including fundraiser art shows for Montserrat College of Art, Essex County Greenbelt, and the Ipswich Cultural Council. She has also had solo exhibitions at the Hall-Haskell House Gallery in Ipswich and the Gloucester Marine Genomics Institute. Mary is a member of the Local Colors Arts Cooperative, where she maintains a display in the group’s gallery on Main St. in Gloucester. She is a founding board member of the Ipswich Art Association.

Dan has been a lifelong photographer going back to film darkroom days. Ipswich has inspired a reawakening. His work tends towards natural subjects with people being his favorite. He has just begun displaying his work publicly.
