It has been a busy week getting ready for the Artists of the Limberlost Studio Tour. Some artists have show rooms that are always set up to display the art but touring Brian's actual workshop gives a true insight into the creation of the bowls and platters.
We cleared the floor of large piles of woodchips and shavings, swept and dusted and the workshop has become a show room.
A year of turning on the lathe has produced art that displays nature at its best. The deep colour of redwood, live edge pieces with bark inclusions and burls that are almost lacy with intricate grain patterns show the diverse possibilities of wood.
This is only a beginning as we will be adding Carol-Ann Michaelson's pottery pieces and Bob McLean's watercolours to our display. Carol-Ann has created a special Muskoka series of pottery that includes stone, wood and bronze and Bob has many Muskoka scenes from Rebecca Lake.
We hope that you can join us on Saturday or Sunday, August 18, 19 from 10:00 to 6:00. Drive up scenic Limberlost Road to 1555 Fieldale Road on Rebecca Lake. The coffee, lemonade and cookies will be waiting and you are welcome to see our studio and explore our beautiful gardens.For more information about the tour, go to:
