Artist Portfolio: Maria Moya
She’s inspired by the ordinary things in life: The way a twig hangs precariously from a branch, the way a carpenter’s nails fall in a random pattern on the ground, or the way the rust on those nails forms shapes and shadows and texture. Such commonplace items become extraordinary art when found by Maria and placed in her shrines, or used to embellish her very personal dolls.
Stamping on Ceramics
There is a wonderful world to explore by painting and stamping on pre-glazed and fired ceramic pieces. Artist Sherrill Kahn shows how a humble piece of pottery or a simple ceramic tile is instantly transformed with paint, stamped images and your creative flair.
An Artful Journey: Preserving the Great Southwest
This land is considered so sacred, so inviolate, that no white man (or woman) may trespass without permission. A land wrapped in secrecy, secure boundaries, tradition, and ritual. An unending text of story and lore. Indian Land. Explore it with author Lynne Perrella as she embarks upon an artful journey to Taos, New Mexico.
Funky Art Boxes
You’ll delight in these cheerful, funky art boxes by Debbie Sanchez. Says the artist: “I love boxes, but most instructions are too complicated and require too many supplies that are hard to come by. I’ve found a way to use rubber stamps, paper and a very simple box pattern to make Funky Art Boxes.”
