The Retreat

“HOPE’S JOURNEY”  

Retreat Art Contest winner, Jeanette Martone, wins a Solo Show, at RJD Gallery. This was judged by “Christina Strassfield”, GUILD HALL MUSEUM Director,  and Kathryn Markel, Art Gallery owner, to raise awareness and funds for the benefit of the Retreat.

The Retreat,  “where violence ends and hope begins.” 

Jeanette Martone         “Imagining”        Graphite and Ink on Paper          41″ x 26.5″

During her volunteer work in the Dominican Republic, Jeanette created exquisite graphite and ink portraits on paper depicting the touching reality of everyday life. She also spent days building homes for the homeless, and unfortunate, with the assistance of her husband James.  She has a heart of gold and a wonderful eye and talented hand for capturing with compassion and with hope, the lives of others.
