Sally Rowe
In 1992, Sally and her husband Anthony purchased an old rural farmstead in Sullivan County, NY. To her surprise (and everyone she knew), she caught the "country bug." By 1998, she left her job and life in NYC, and never looked back.
Her thirty years of garden adventures are chronicled in her upcoming gardening book, Digging up the Grass: Stories from the Flower Garden. The garden includes over fifty flowering trees and shrubs, with an emphasis on native and fragrant plants. On any given day, the scent of lilies, azalea, or viburnum can be found wafting through the air.
The installation of her show Vintage Pain was presented at the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance (DVAA), in Narrowsburg, NY, March 22-April 19, 2014. Her ongoing series Vintage Play has been included in DVAA’s annual juried Art in Sixes show since 2014. In June 2017, her work was included in the curated group show Night Watch, held at DVAA. In May 2021, her Fiber Balls were included in DVAA's curated show Tactile. Her sculptural fiber pieces have also been presented at local craft events and at DVAA’s Art in Sixes.
When the snow flies, Sally can be found with knitting needles in hand, or baking lots and lots of cookies.
Sally lives in Barryville, NY with her husband Anthony, a ceramic artist.
