Featured Artist: Jane Davies
As I’ve been studying up on both mono-printing and mono-printing collage, it didn’t take long for Jane Davies’ work to surface on the internet.

Erin Hanson is one of my favorite living artists. If I had money and wall space I would be investing in her work. I absolutely love it.
I thought you might want to check out some of the recent beading projects by our youngest daughter. They are all original concepts and designs.
I am headed up to Maine to my annual Creative Arts Camp where I will have the privilege this year to take a class with Brooks Anderson for a week on the shores of Long Lake…
I absolutely love the work of Sven Birger Sandzen. The painting above is my favorite of his, with a few close runners-up shown below. Born in Sweden in 1871, he received his art training there. Then in 1894 he immigrated to Kansas, where he taught art on the college level. But it was later, when … Read more

I’d like to introduce you to a friend of mine that intersects both my Christian Science and art communities. His name is Paul Trowbridge and here are some of…
Today I watched this demo by artist Frank Bruckmann (click here to see his website). Much of his finished work is awesome so check out his website. He was just back from six months on Monhegan Island off the coast of Maine. Early in his career he spent many years copying the works of the … Read more

What I didn’t know was that he was equally a philosopher. He was influenced both by Dutch Calvinism and theosophy, and although outgrew both due to … Read more
