QUARANTINI CREATIVITY (July 2020)
/
QUARANTINI CREATIVITY featured new work by Mark Entzminger (turned wood), Jan Fox (encaustic paintings), PJ Peters (mixed media), and Larry Schwisow (functional wood). On display July 1 - August 2, 2020
Mark Entzminger continues to elevate turning to a higher art-form. His goal is not only to bring color to his bowls, but to solicit interest and excitement from others. Mark loves the reactions he gets when people see the transparent-color and how light flows through the bowl and splashes onto a table.
Jan Fox incorporates heated bees wax, tree resin, colored pigments and other materials into encaustic paintings. The word encaustic means “…to burn in,” so Jan fuses and manipulates each layer of wax using either a butane or propane torch. As can be imagined, melted wax and a flame can bring unexpected, and often serendipitous results! For the paintings in this show, she’s added shellac to the mix. The resulting rich, underlying textures and translucent effects are a visual delight requiring closer inspection.
PJ Peters describes her work as abstracted mixed-media. She uses acrylics for color and often adds lots of texture. The final piece is finished with an isolation coat or epoxy-resin — depending on complexity. PJ is influenced by national, political and local happenings — or sometimes just the music blaring from the speakers in her studio.
Larry Schwisow’s functional woods are a testament to the term, “fine- craftsmanship.” His passion for uncommon-woods, his creativity, along with a blend of finishes brings a sense of class to his work. His presentation will include; cutting-boards; cheese-slicers, serving trays; hand-made, unique furniture; and other items.
TWO WOMEN, TWO VISIONS (June 2020)
/
In June, Gallery Nine featured the work of member-artist Gretchen Olberding and guest/former-member Rachael Smith. Their show Two Women, Two Visions showcased Gretchen’s hand-sculpted Animal Spirt Shamans, as well as new enameled jewelry and Pastel paintings of landscapes. Rachel showed her newest work in abstract oil painting.
Their “two visions” diverge with Gretchen’s work invoking a spiritual response to nature, while Rachel’s reminds one of the sharp, yet blended edges of a cityscape.
