Dave White here! On May 4th, I had an amazing opportunity to pitch in on makebright and cover the tremendous talent of four artists at the BOX 10 Studio Party. The incredible Cathy Farwell organized this event as a thank you to the BOX 10 sponsors and donors, as well as the official opening of BOX 11.
Michelle Salter, Denise Strong, Fatima Garzan, and Cathy Farwell (above) all demonstrated techniques of their chosen media.
Cathy’s studio on Breithaupt at Duke.
Beautiful sunlight followed everyone into the studio.
Denise’s engaging…
carving, drilling, and…
painting on plywood.
Michelle’s tools of the…
encaustic trade.
Ceci n’est pas un hamburger. Cathy’s porcelain creation. Wow!
Fatima’s prints…
From bottom left, clockwise: woodcut, print, colourgraph. A two-step process: both plates are used to produce this print.
Cathy’s amazing work in clay. Check out how delicate the fabric appears.
Michelle at the helm to demo the cool serendipity of encaustic.
Taking a break.
Cathy’s sculpture…
and the maker.
Snacks!
Great texture. Depth of colour. “Encaustic is meant to be touched.”
Cathy stencilling glaze onto a clay box…
produced an amazing result.
Smiles all around from the BOX 10 volunteers.
The call is out to artists for BOX 11! Submit your work on Friday, Sept 9.
