Artist #1:
Artist Name: Rachel Newell
Medium: Mixed Media
Artist Statement:
"My work is colorful, surreal, and sometimes absurd. When creating, I hope to give life to unique, dreamlike worlds by combining hundreds of various pieces into something that feels whole.
"My work is often described as 'busy,' but it’s a direct reflection of how I feel, think, and experience the world. My intention is for my work to resonate with others — and hopefully bring some joy, wonder, and laughter to those who see it."
Artist #2: Venus Cramer
Medium: Jewelry
Artist Statement:
"My primary style of creating contemporary jewelry is fabrication. I use traditional materials such as silver, gold, and gemstones, as well as non-traditional mediums including fabric, wood, and paint."
Artist #3: Darren Miller
Medium: Sculpture
