Showing Now through October 29, 2019

Joanne Hiscox

“I love to create architectural art that blends nature with style, incorporating man-made mediums with nature’s own art.  My tables startle the viewer by juxtaposing natural elements (copper, semi-precious stones and fossils) with man-made materials, compelling the viewer to actually touch the surface (bringing in another sense besides sight).  My goal is to create sculptural art pieces that are new and different, constantly changing in design and material composition.  My sculptural fused glassworks showcase my strongest point: that I’m a “no-fear artist”.  Present me with a new challenge and I’m on board instantly.”

Art Hiscox

“My architectural art combines man-made materials with nature’s own art (marble, granite, slate, fossils).  My use of color, texture and resin compels viewers to actually touch the surface of my pieces.  I frequently use river stone, granite, marble, copper, shell, tree bark, semi-precious stones and fossils in combination with man-made materials to create functional art pieces that convey nature’s peacefulness.  Many of my pieces depict rivers, streams, landscape, birds and bright colors.”

Bill Belvin
Bill Belvin is a Sedona based fine arts photographer specializing in creating richly detailed images of the American Southwest wilderness. He loves capturing the patterns and symmetries present in sandstone and sharing the results with others.

Bill is a Fellow of The Casualty Actuarial Society and a Life Member of the New York Academy of Sciences. His background in computer science, mathematics, and statistics has served him well in dealing with the more technical aspects of photography.

Joan Roberts

The design of unique jewelry has become a passion for Joan Roberts as she looks for new ways to create distinctive art pieces.  Joan’s designs are one of a kind, inspired by elements from nature. Applying silver, gold, bronze and copper clay she portrays the organic essence of nature which provides the broad spectrum and uniqueness in her work. Added to this Roberts uses hand-beading, sometimes incorporating the Kumihimo method, to complete her necklace designs.
