Featured Profile

Peter Polomski became interested in photography 50 years ago, when his father bought one of the first Polaroid cameras. Most of his early photos were the garden-variety - vacation and landscape photos.
The development of affordable digital photography, editing, and printing has stimulated him to more creativity as well as more exotic locales, such as Tibet and India.
Pete's education includes concentrations in mathematics, psychology, business, & Buddhism. A graduate of ECSU, Pete dropped out of the MBA Program at the University of Hartford to start a million dollar bakery chain (he was in it for the dough). Career experience ranges from short order cook to Comptroller of a construction company. In 2001, Pete bought The Lily Pad, an Art Supply & custom picture-framing store in Willimantic, CT.
His work has appeared in several local shows and galleries. His artistic focus has evolved from travel and architectural pictures to more challenging work, primarily portraiture.
