Structure
July 25 – October 25
A collection of ceramic works focused on foundation and quality. Once a solid foundation is established, the artist elaborates on the structure’s physical and conceptual direction of growth. This lifelong pursuit blends professionalism with the flexibility to build upon previous concepts. We hope you enjoy this body of work, created with adoration, persistence and dedication.
Portraits in Glass: Sue Rose
July 11 – October 25
Sue is relatively new to the world of mosaic, but she has shot off like a rocket.
CarolAnn Wachter
August 15 – October 25
A show that unites works on paper, large-scale painted collages, and oil paintings created over the last 8-10 years by CarolAnn.
