Three Great Artists; One Great Show!
Posted August 14, 2011
Studio 1219 hosts a wine and cheese reception, open to the public, 6pm to 9pm this Friday, August 19, for “More Than Mud.” This art show—anchored by three popular, professional artists—features art in multi-media, intarsia, paintings, ceramics and pottery, and more! “More Than Mud” runs from August 19th through October 2nd.
The featured artists are:
Jason Stier
An active artist, art educator, and art advocate from St. Clair, his explorations through art capture unique experiences of travel, adventure, the familiar and unfamiliar. Through the cross-pollination of clay, paint, and even found objects, each piece becomes a slice of life enhanced with unique color, perspective, and choice of media.
Deborah J. Bassett-Maxwell
Her new “Loft Art” series in this show captures textures and layers that resemble the noise of our lives. This popular Smith’s Creek artist says, “The process of pottery requires that one maintains an open mind and sense of humor.” Some of the industrial pieces have been fired four to six times!
John Henry
This Port Huron artist shows his new work generates many distinctive directions. In the ceramic area, there is both low and high reliefs in the form of hand-painted tiles and plaques using luster glazes. In wood, he has chosen hand-painted intarsia wood reliefs and small wooden laminated sculptures.
