Mark Blech - Holiday 2011 Artist

Mark Blech 
I am an artist by education and a commercial artist by trade. My furniture is a melding of the 2. Form and function. I try and push the boundaries of both. I use  reclaimed heart or old growth pine , or oak, that I buy locally. That is very important to me, to not be a burden on my enviroment but to also work with wood that has a sense of history, where you can see the age on the wood. As I get older, I find I can appreciate the wear lines on a surface more and more. My work plays with alot of ideas about structure and the ideas of building blocks. Figuratively and literally. I hope you enjoy the work.

Tom Britton - Holiday 2011 Artist

Tom Britton 
I am a self-taught knitter. I started knitting when I was 16; I wanted a bulky sweater jacket and could not afford the hefty price the stores were asking for it. So, being a man of resource, I set out teaching myself to knit. One year later, I was wearing that sweater jacket. I became addicted to knitting, the thought of creating something out of a piece of string fascinated me. Now, I primarily knit only in the fall/winter months; I own and run a small campground business in the spring/summer months. Lace, fair-isle sweaters and caps are my favorite items to knit; and the only socks I have ever knitted were for holding Christmas presents. I prefer making things that are useful and practical and create my own patterns and methods for doing so. The more challenging the project, the better. I prefer using natural fibers: cotton, wool, alpaca, llama, angora, etc. I teach workshops and classes. I started making these caps a little over a year ago and have sold many, many, many caps. My Ravelry.com name is tbritton.

Red Crow - Holiday 2011 Artist

Red Crow 
Handcrafted mosaic art work by me, the artist, Judy Mendel living in Dacula, GA. Inspired to create most often from unwanted or broken little finds. I love the art of mosaics. Using glass, recycled items, mixed media, handcrafted stoneware clay pieces from my studio, broken glass, vintage/retro china plates, or ceramic/pottery dishes/pots. Making new again an item that normally would be tossed is the best part to me. I find mosaics relaxing and very much like putting together a puzzle. I am able to blend various tesserae together to create a unique piece that tells it's own story as you see it each time. I have a home studio that I work in full time creating wall hangings, welcome signs, inspirational signs, tables, mirrors, flower pots, bird baths, jewelry boxes, and whatever lands on the table next. I am "that person" with a lot of little hopefuls waiting on the shelves to be used in the next piece of art, not considered the junk lady yet. Each mosaic is an original piece of art and can't be duplicated, what I'm not able to draw on paper I can visualize it in a mosaic and arrange on a surface with a little tile, twisting, and adhesive to create art that is interesting - that is what has drawn me to making mosaics

My tastes change much like my hair color. I love digging through beautiful beads and charms, feeling their textures and imagining their potential. I especially love colors which sparkle and shimmer! And its exciting to find charms and pieces from other eras and bring it to life again. I like to have a little something for everyone and am always excited to send a piece to its new home and wonder what adventures it will have!
