Sharon Moore-Foster
“Art is a process, as is life. You acquire new bits of information and integrate them with the old, as well as surrender to the present with a bizarre sense of, "Okay, let's go". I communicate through various media: The steel is raw, unfinished strong industrial material. The drawings are curious organic investigations into human form and essence. The clay yields to gentle guidance; upon firing, it manifests enduring strength.” |
July 23 - 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Twyla McGann
You'll never see papier mache the same way again. Watch as Twyla demonstrates how to use this material as a fine art sculpting medium.
