Female Artist Showcase: Egg In Nest
Lindsey Chester & Beverly Dorland

Show Runs until May 1, 2023

Egg in Nest is a unique Art Studio offering Art Classes for children and adults in the Southwest Raleigh, Cary and Apex area. Children of all ages gather in small groups to make art and enhance creativity. Each student works independently on art projects of their choice! They offer after-school, home-school and track-out art class times and evening hours for teens and adults. Painting, drawing and portfolio prep classes are held weekly during the school year and Art Camps are available in the summer. Painting lessons include watercolor, oils and acrylic drawing lessons explores graphite, charcoal, pastel and mixed media materials. Egg in Nest is owned and operated by Jenny Eggleston. 

Lindsey Chester's art focuses on people, places, and occasionally pets, using acrylic paint, watercolors, or graphite. The play of values is central to her work. The darks are dark and the lights are bright with high-contrast a common theme. Lindsey graduated from the Mason Gross School of Art, at Rutgers University with a BFA concentrated in drawing and printmaking. She had a 15-year career designing women's clothing in the New York Garment Center before moving to Cary, NC in 1998 with her family. She is a current board member of the Fine Arts League of Cary. 

Clay is a mesmerizing, tactile medium that draws Beverly Dorland in. Because the surface treatment for the final form influences all decisions, the challenge is to honor the clay’s three dimensional characteristics and its transformation through the firing processes. In all of Dorland’s pieces, she hopes the lingering viewer discovers details and an appreciation for that moment in time spent with her work.
