At the Foundry with Carol Alleman — Bronze Casting
March 15th, 2015
For many, the lost wax process is a complete mystery. It is a lengthy process involving many, highly skilled hands which Carol Alleman refers to as her “ghost artists”. After the completion of the original sculpting and molding process, each casting requires approximately 12-16 weeks to complete. The process also requires a great deal of attention to detail, as many “mistakes” can require the entire process to start over at the very beginning, using a new wax model.
Rebecca Kinkead Paints Memories of ‘Wild Life’
March 7th, 2015
“I want people to feel good when they look at my work. I love art that makes me feel alive and especially art that makes me laugh,” she said in an email. “I know it may sound really simple, but that’s what I am going for… joy.

Truly, Madly, Artfully
February 10th, 2015
Often times we feel overwhelmed with the predictable nature of Valentine’s Day. As a holiday that had humble and saintly beginnings in ancient history, it’s ironic that commercialization has swallowed the true nature of giving that defined the celebration of the life of Saint Valentine. While the giving nature of the celebration has subsisted over time, the true spirit of Valentine’s Day remains the giving of our time or a gift that will last.
Viewing the World Minimally with James Penfield
February 3rd, 2015
The brevity and stillness of Penfield’s work often reminds me of moments in time. Brief moments that we try and remember – an image that we try and capture within our minds and memories. And yet here they are on a canvas.
