Celene Farris Biography
Maine Artist, Celene Farris, grew up in the 1950's in Manchester, Connecticut, a small town bordered by farms and rolling tobacco fields. This instilled in her a love of nature and an appreciation of simpler times. A serious artist, Farris is basically self-taught and has studied under various artists such as David Curtis and Barbara Applegate. She received a certificate in Advanced Oil Painting from The North Light Art School in Cincinnati. “Because both my parents were artists and musicians, art and music have always been an important part of my life.”
A Maine resident for more than 35 years, she resides with her family in Morrill, Maine, a small, rural community situated among the farms and rolling hills that she loves. This quiet life is reflected in her landscapes and still lifes.
Since January 1999 she has shared her love of oil painting by offering weekly classes and workshops. She also taught oil painting in the 2000 Alpha Omega Summer Program in Belfast, Maine.
In January 1999, Farris became co-founder and co-owner of The Working Art Gallery in Belfast, Maine, serving as general manager and financial officer as well as a participating artist. She has coordinated and managed numerous juried art shows at the gallery. The gallery moved to its own building at 65 Main Street in September 2003. There she implemented a separate Visiting Artist’s Gallery on the second floor, giving new, up & coming artists the unique opportunity to display their work.
In 2000, she co-founded The BelfastArt Galleries Association, serving as coordinator and financial manager until December 2004.
As the gallery continued to grow, the painting time became less - so both partners have decided to retire from the gallery operation at the end of 2006 – and go back to painting full time. Farris will continue to offer classes and workshops
