It was really busy earlier and the traffic is tapering-off. I’m looking for a corner to take a nap – well, maybe not. Whatever, come by and visit.

Great place to buy Christmas and Hanukah gifts from local (starving) artists.

Dayhoff uses computer screen as easel by Lyndi McNulty



Kevin Dayhoff greeted me with a quick smile and a familiar “How’s your behavior?” as he peered from behind his computer screen as I entered the Off Track Art gallery at 11 Liberty St. in downtown Westminster last week for an interview.

He was a collage artist at work. However, it was not the traditional cluttered scene of an artist’s studio. There was no easel, piles of images and collage materials, an array of glues or even a palette plate of paint daubs sitting on top of boxes of art supplies. His canvas was his computer screen, and he was trying to get an image to paste properly into a collage.

The gallery is wonderful display of the work of 14 other artists. They all belong in an artists’ cooperative, Off Track Art, situated alongside the railroad tracks in the center of town at Main and Liberty streets.

Dayhoff is a lifelong Carroll County artist. A native of Westminster, he has had a wide range of experience and interests. He has been a landscaper, artist, writer and even the local town mayor.

He inherited his art talent from his parents. His father was an artist-painter-cabinetmaker. His mother is a culinary artist. In 1958, his interest in art surfaced when he was only five years old. People took a special interest in his drawing. His mother encouraged him draw a pirate when he was 5 and entered it into a drawing contest.

All through Carroll County Public Schools, Dayhoff drew, created collages, and wrote short stories. He was the boy sports editor for the Westminster High School yearbook and collaged many of the photographs in the 1971 yearbook – the year he graduated. In addition, Dayhoff studied photography in the 1960s in 4-H. Later, as a landscape designer, he took photographs of the properties and expanded that into his artwork.

When asked about what it was like to grow up an artist in Carroll County, Dayhoff has nothing but praise.

“There is no better place to be an artist than Carroll County. I have rarely met disapproval, only encouragement,” he said.

Can you say Elizabeth McNeill’s short story, “9 ½ weeks?” http://tinyurl.com/m6utqs Well – just the part in the controversial February 1986 film version where John Grey, played by Mickey Rourke, feeds a blindfolded Elizabeth McGraw, played by Kim Basinger, various fruits, honey and beverages from the refrigerator. Hey Z, you can leave your hat on.

Off Track Art – artist profile: Charlotte Laslo

Off Track Art – artist profile: Charlotte Laslo

Charlotte Laslo

Textile Jewelry

I live in Carroll County where my husband and I have three almost-grown children. With a decade of my childhood spent in Tokyo, a History degree from Swarthmore College, and five recent years lived in Germany, I've been a Japanese translator, fitness instructor, framer, Business English teacher, reading tutor, and now Student-Tutor Coordinator at the Literacy Council of Carroll County.

And now I am creating jewelry! Since my first cross-stitch tea towel at age seven, I've spent thousands of hours absorbed in crochet, sewing, knitting or needlepoint. I am fascinated by combinations of stones, textiles, metals, and glass and am brimming with ideas for projects that contrast and enhance the beauty of these ordinary life elements.

On the essay evolutionary scale, this essay is a monkey on roller skates. The monkey may or may not be wearing a pink tutu - this is for you to decide.

As the February 1, 2009 Off Track Art co-op meeting came to a close, Uncle Kevin, Mr. Moose and Mrs. Williamson began a lively conversation… about purpose and the meaning of life…

Pam Zappardino and the Fuller brush man


Pam Zappardino and the Fuller brush man

March 12, 2009 by Kevin Dayhoff

While taking her turn doing Off Track Art studio duty; Pam Zappardino claims to have been visited upon by the Fuller brush traveling salesman. Of course this sounds like a short story, however, Pam is sticking by her story. No word as to whether or not his name was Godot or what Samuel Beckett has to say about the affair.
