Although he often pursued other passions in life, the pottery and clay world captivated him. Along the journey, Biv credits school and his professional experience as a factory potter and designer for polishing his attitude toward ceramics. The list of influences is endless; however there are a few that cannot go without mention: John Rothrock from Edison High School in Huntington Beach, Ca. Don Jennings and Larry Wasserman at Orange Coast College, Larry Thomson and the crew from “The Studio Pottery” in Whittier, Ca. and Crispin Gonzales from Chaffey College. Thomas adheres to the belief that it’s not where you’ve been but where you’re at that matters. Working with Mr. Tom Schumacher, getting to know the students at Yavapai College, and a wonderful relationship with his wife and daughter have put him in a special place. Asked to describe himself and his work, Tom said,”I’d rather let the work speak for itself.”

Daniel Borup

Sculpture

Artist Statement: I strive to make my work come to life. I want my figures to look as if they feel emotions and could walk right off their pedestal. I have spent years studying anatomy and sculpture so I can more accurately render the human figure in all of its many gestures and expressions. This work pays off as the Art Collector connects emotionally or spiritually with my work because of the life I have given it. Strength and Movement are strong themes in my artwork. I make use of fabric, hair, and strained muscles to communicate the motion of the sculpture. I portray positive and inspiring messages, which speak to collectors in an honest way at a deep emotional level. My work fits a wide variety of tastes as I combine classical style figure sculpture with abstract elements, thus creating a contemporary yet timeless feel. Every figure starts with study. Whether it is studying a model sitting in front of me, looking at pictures of clothing and hair styles studying an anatomy book, or reading about a specific person’s life and works. Just as every person has imperfections that make them unique and beautiful I prefer to leave beautiful imperfections in my sculptures. I don’t try to hide how my sculptures are made. On the contrary I leave traces of myself, marks from my sculpting tools and my hands. By leaving these marks I am able to give some of my self to the life of the sculpture. I know a sculpture is done when it has a life of it’s own, when I can feel its presence sitting in my studio. http://www.danielborup.com/

Mary Ann Cherry

No Departments

I was raised in rural Montana near the Yellowstone River and loved it there. My folks were big Charlie Russell fans – it helped to boost my interest in western art at an early age. Mom gave me a paintbrush and small oil painting set when I was eight. Dad was always sketching horses, especially buckin’ broncs, rattlesnakes and a lot of other non-girly things for me on newsprint from an old pad of paper. Now I live near the Snake River in Idaho, where wildlife and birds are plentiful and make great subject matter. After seeing a herd of rocky mountain sheep or buffalo, you get an itch to paint them and you need a selection of good reference photos. I often join about four or five photos together to get a composition that pleases the eye. The past few years, I’ve been honored to have been a guest artist at several art museums, including the Clymer, the Art Museum of Eastern Idaho and the Olaf Wieghorst Museum of El Cajon, California. In 2017 I was the Bronze award winner at the Oil Painters of America Western Regional show.

I never seem to get frustrated or stuck, I just keep moving. When things get difficult I just take a different path. Eventual, things always workout. Life is constantly evolving so I just go with the flow. Since I weave the way I flow through life, my weavings just evolve. I am surrounded by projects in progress and don't feel the pressure to complete them. They will get done, it just takes time. I don't waste time on frustration. I move on to something else; come back later. I use past experiences to build and grow with something new. Eventually, everything falls into place. I just continue with a steady pace. Sometimes I just wait for the reaction of the fibers to show me what to do next. Doris Florig's Website

Being outside and making art have both had a tremendous impact on my life from a very early age.

Eventually, my family found Jackson, WY which has proved to be the perfect place to live a creative and active life.

Amanda Martin

Painting

Guided by a creative and thoughtful mother who inspired thinking outside the box, art has always been a large part of my life. This early passion fueled by a curiosity and desire to learn has led to years of independent studies with several talented mentors guiding my way. I moved to Jackson in 2002 to start my healing arts business, Jackson Hole Mobile Massage. In 2012 I started leading workshops that combined my love for art and healing. I am now teaching art to under-served populations and leading workshops at the Art Association in Jackson. While studying a variety of mediums it was through teaching that I have found my artistic voice and an insatiable desire to paint. In the classroom I create an exploratory space where expression is beautiful, playful, fun and individual. If you can allow yourself to quiet the critic you may surprise yourself.

I was born and raised in the suburbs west of Philadelphia. As a kid I watched the sprawling population occupy the country, turning farms into strip malls and developments.  I always sought refuge in whatever undisturbed forests I could find, splashing in creeks, picking wild raspberries, and discovering the myriad of creatures in the forest and under rocks.  I never cared much for the classroom and struggled through grade school, although wildly excelling in art class and at recess!  Once I was released from high school, I headed north to attend Marlboro College in southern Vermont.  Avoiding math and science, I focused on pottery and other studio art courses.  Exploring other outlets off campus for my curiosity of adventure, I developed a true love for whitewater kayaking and snowboarding.  My love of nature grew into a true passion for horticulture and an endless fascination for the natural cycles of growing my own food.  After college, the search for true wilderness and powder snow led me to the Rocky Mountains!  Gathering inspiration from the endless beauty of the Teton wilderness, I am focusing on creating functional pottery to enhance everyday living and eating.

Courtney’s work has been shown nationally and internationally and has been featured in many books and magazines including American Craft and Ceramics Monthly. In 2011 she was chosen as an emerging artist by Ceramics Monthly. Her designs are influenced by simplified abstractions of nature, children's artwork, folk art, mid-century modern forms and shapes, as well as patterns and textiles. She is compelled by the variation found in handmade objects and likes the personal connection that they help to create as they leave her studio to become part of somebody’s daily routine.

Quilting can be a solitary adventure and I felt the need to surround myself with other quilters that desired company too, so in 2009 I started teaching modern and improvisational quilting workshops in Seattle.  I’ve been the featured artist at multiple shows, am a founding member and former president of the Seattle Modern Quilt Guild, and my quilts have been shown and awarded at QuiltCon.  In 2013 I wrote the award winning book, Quilting Modern: Techniques and Projects for Improvisational Quilts with Jacquie Gering and have since been published in American Patchwork and Quilting, Sew Mama Sew and other publications.  I continue to teach modern and improvisational quilting classes accessible to all ages and levels in my Seattle Quilting Studio, locally, nationally and internationally. sewkatiedid.com/blog Quilting Modern: Improvisational Techniques for Quilts and Projects

Glass

I am originally from Minnesota. Coming out here as a kid in the winters inspired me to finally stay living here. After spending many years of traveling back and forth from Alaska to here blowing glass in both places I now call this home! I have been blowing glass for the last 16 years. I have been teaching flameworking for the last 4 years here at the art association. I really love bright colors and animals. This area has such great beauty and so many animals it really inspires me to create fun and funky work in art.

I have always felt a need to make things. As a trained Horticulturist I am crazy about plants and as a jewelry artist much of my work centers around plant forms translated through various metals and glass. From my studio here at 320 Studios I create traditional metalwork and also work with an exciting and relatively new material, Metal Clay. I also play with glass as enamel and fused glass and dabble with pastels. Lennie Poitras

Grace Ridge

Ceramics

Grace grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio. She fell in love with creating during her first art class at Queen City Clay during the summer of 2011. She earned her BFA in sculpture at Northern Kentucky University in 2016. During her time at NKU she developed a love for working with metals, alternative firing techniques, and larger forms that invade and add to a viewers personal space. Performance art has become a huge hobby of hers in the last 8 years, some of which involves fire. Her love for fire has broadened her knowledge of the endless possibilities of new surfaces and ways to create artwork.

Lyndsey Rieple

Silversmithing

Growing up in the Colorado mountains, my imagination, creativity, and resourcefulness were nurtured by my furniture designer father and graphic illustrator mother. Carefully constructing tiny one-staple-bound books, sculpting toilet paper food, and making microscopic doll clothes and accessories were my favorite childhood pastimes. Today, I find that jewelry design and construction fulfills my innate desire to create art which decorates and enhances the wearers' persona and personality that both travels (and packs) easily, and cultivates emotion and creativity that hopefully transitions over time. I obtained my BFA in Metal-smithing and Jewelry at the University of North Texas and now live in Jackson Hole, Wyoming where I work as a bench jeweler for J.C. Jewelers. I teach jewelry classes and workshops through the Art Association of Jackson Hole where I delight in passing along the craft as others have done for me. My own jewelry designs continue to unfold as I explore my style and preferences of materials. When I am not making jewelry, I rock climb, bicycle, hike, and dance.
