Featured Artisans Includes:
- Andrew Ciminelli of Lucky Oak Woodworking strives to create functional art with everyday applications. He takes high quality standards into the finished products to ensure that they last incredibly long and display the uniqueness of the natural wood grains. Tables, cutting boards, bowls and furniture are just some of the items he makes by hand.
- Painter Patti Fulton’s work centers around creating imagery with heart and soul, focusing primarily on detailed portraits of human faces from all walks of life as well as animals, capturing their innate nature. Using pencil and pastel, she strives to depict moments that resonate emotionally, often moving the viewer and telling a story beyond the surface. “My inspiration is drawn from animals, Native American culture, and the rich history etched into the lines of a human face,” she says. “These elements fuel my desire to explore identity and connection through my art.
- Wearable Phantasy by Elizabeth Hall - Quirky and beautiful, one-of-a-kind earrings, necklaces and pins make up Elizabeth’s assortment of jewelry made from a wide variety of materials such as recycled tin, wood, beads, plastic, or fabric. “What inspires me? Everything! From skyscrapers in Chicago to a dancer in a Cambodian children's parade,” she says. “My techniques are constantly changing. I paint, etch, knit and bead. I never repeat my creations- they are as unique as we all are. My jewelry is fun, daring, but super light and comfortable.”
