The Artists of the Limberlost are celebrating their 5th anniversary but this is the first time that they have staged an art show together. Each August they open their studios to the public, showcasing their work individually, so this is a special exhibition.
Brian usually creates his art on his lathe but an especially beautiful bark-edged slab of black walnut inspired him to make this coffee table.
The resulting "Out of the Woods" show is an eclectic mix of exceptional art: Jerry Friedman's driftwood sculpture, Susan Higgins' fused and stained glass, Mark Kulas' stylized wildlife and wilderness paintings, Catherine O'Mara's egg tempura paintings, Brenda Wainman Goulet's bronze sculpture, Sharon Stock Feren's mixed media of photograpy, painting and mosaics, Jeff Miller's acrylic and oil paintings and of course Brian's woodturned bowls and platters.
The show opens at The Art Space Gallery on Friday, May 6th with a reception from 5 pm to 8 pm and continues until May 28th. For more information about the "Out of the Woods" show and the Artists of the Limberlost see:
oh love the table!
ReplyDeleteThanks Victoria. It is for sale but I keep wondering if we should be keeping it. The top and the skirt have a bark edge with the lighter sapwood which contrasts to the darker heartwood. It is very striking.
