Patricia Sundgren Smith and Tom Kingshill
Featured Artists for April 2017
Patricia Sundgren Smith: "I wanted to do something life-affirming and uplifting in the new year, so I've been focusing on birds and birds' nest imagery. I've been using two of my favorite techniques -- linocut printmaking and drawing with Prismacolor, graphite, and ink. I hope that viewers will enjoy the images as much as I did in making them."
Tom Kingshill is an artist inspired by the great lumber of his surrounding landscape. Tom takes foraged sections of local trees and using a wood lathe, creates decorative vessels for the home. Tom challenges himself in the wood shop, and his speciality are his natural edge bowls. He is an artist constantly driven to improve on his craftsmanship in an attempt to reveal a combination of handmade and natural beauty.
