Stacie Chappell : New Works

Stacie’s work explores spatial movement of color and form as metaphor for psychological states of being. The work suggests expansiveness and balance. Stacie’s work has been described as visual poetics of space, or representative of a visual stream of consciousness. Stacie wants the viewer to have a perceptual and sensory experience.

As an intuitive painter, Stacie draws upon life experience as her artistic influence; a time, mood or memory. She uses a variety of acrylics, inks, enamel and fabric dyes to integrate form, color and pattern. The types of paint media and surface treatments she uses react differently, ultimately pushing the element of surprise as form and space develop.

Lisa Conway : Porcelain Creations

Lisa Conway’s latest work explores the intersection between the plant world and animal, between male and female, and between reality and fantasy. These porcelain creations come off the table and the wall with a lively, colorful energy designed to delight the senses.
