Spring stock of prints & cards
by Ann Willey |
We can feel spring blowing in from just around the corner! We are truly ready for
bright
blue skies and warm sun rays hitting our windows and lighting up the arts & crafts in the gallery.
Our early spring kick-off starts
THIS FRIDAY with the
Walk on Woodburn
when the whole neighborhood celebrates! We are lucky enough to have a special guest artist presenting a
Pop-Up!
Amy Flesher of
Hunky Dory Studios will share a ONE-DAY-ONLY collection of her eclectic fused glass work from 5 to 9,
March 6th. You may also catch a peak of her process as she builds one of her fused glass branch bowls.
We are keeping busy with many new deliveries of makers' collections and finding new talent to share with our fans. Four new artists have added their talents to
indigenous just this month. Plans are underway for more artists and artful events this spring - just stay tuned!
Stop in and see what's new. As always, we are happy to help you find the right gifts or treat for yourself, seven days a week. To make it even easier for you to shop, we'll add our complimentary gift packaging too.
Please note ~ through March 27th we're still on wintry hours:
Monday-Saturday 10-6, Sunday 12-5, still open 7 days a week!

Heather O'Hara
Adding to the variety of our stationery options for all occasions,
Heather O'Hara delivered her first batch of original block print cards featuring some of our favorite black birds!
Each of her greeting cards is an original block print made by using a hand-powered letterpress. Each design begins as Heather's original drawing and is then transferred to blocks she carves to create the surface for printing.
The cards are printed one color layer at a time onto cotton rag paper using vegetable oil based ink. Her designs celebrate the quirky bird personalities with a touch of humor.

Please help us welcome new sculptor, Catherine George, to the indigenous family of artists. Cat delivered her first clan of dragons - one-of-a-kind hand-built sculptures of these mythical beasts! Retired from teaching art, Cat finally has time to explore her own creativity a bit more and express her lifetime fascination with dragons through sculpting in clay.
"It simply is not an adventure worth telling if there aren't any dragons." ~J.R.R. Tolkien

Joining the talent at indigenous is our newest fiber artist, Marisa Wilfong! Marisa delivered her first collection of knitted and crocheted shawls in a variety of sizes, patterns, and designs with some created from the yarn she spun herself. With wonderful attention to detail, Marisa's wearable arts are colorful, one-of-a-kind appealing works that will enhance a casual or an elegant ensemble.
"I have a few art media that I enjoy working with, but two of my favorites include fiber and textiles. Since a young girl I have always had a love for yarn, material and thread. I started sewing at a young age as my mother was a seamstress and taught me how to sew my own clothes and from there I picked up on knitting crocheting and embroidery. In the past ten years I have really become fascinated with knitted lace and the beauty of the design and the feel of the finished product." ~Marisa

Our collection of art prints by Ken Swinson is ever-changing - woodcut block prints and colorful giclee prints range in size from 8x10 to 18x24 - standard sizes, ready to frame. Ken Swinson is a self-taught artist from rural Kentucky, whose work includes painting, printmaking, animation and ipad art. He considers himself to be a 'lifetime learner' and he uses art as the vehicle to explore and learn more about the world around him. Much of his work reflects his optimistic views on rural folk culture, river life and simple pleasures.

eautiful mosaic wall pieces. Each tree captures the lively changing seasons in the leaves and flowers, making every one a lovely gift for any nature lover! With this collection, we are also featuring a cool lizard.

Find your favorite fab new art prints from Mark McDevitt & Rob Lee at indigenous.
"Screen printing allows for each pigment to live and breathe at its boldest and purest form. Screen printing is a craft that has been around for 100's of years. The process has evolved and new techniques have been introduced but screen printing - in its purest form - hasn't changed much. It's about craftsmanship. It's an art form that we want to preserve and keep true. From pencil to printing every print is hand crafted. Our process is hands-on and personal. Each piece is done individually by hand and we don't rush the process. We carefully choose our colors for each layer of printing. The ink is custom mixed and hand printed through screens onto high quality paper. Each color is applied, one at a time, and checked vigorously for accuracy to maintain consistency on every print." ~ Mark & Rob
