Every 3rd. Thursday at ART on FIRST, is where the action is. YES! "ART-in-ACTION".
Our new series where you can meet and experience one of our artists at work. This time, Joy Light will spend the day at the Gallery, all set-up and working LIVE on one of her beautiful silks. It’s a visual experience, as well as an opportunity to get to know the artists themselves, ask about their process, and fall in love with their work.
ABOUT Joy Light:
Joy Light
"I am magnetized by color and I am inspired by silk, an amazingly soft, sensuous and durable fabric. I started painting silk in 1989 and have developed several lines that take their inspiration from my love of life and passion for beauty.
Bringing pleasure from the eye to the heart, each piece has its own personality, a life of its own, channeled by the artist into our world. Light is the essence of the work, the silk is dyed, wrapped, steamed and unfurled into its final form.
Even to the artist, the work reveals itself -- that is the mystical quality of the craft."- Joy Light
Originally a native of Reading Pennsylvania, Joy Light ventured west in 1979 landing in Ashland, Oregon, where she has lived for over 30 years. A mother of three grown boys, she is passionate about organic gardening, cooking and home décor. Her line of art to wear hand painted silks was launched in 1989. Inspired and mentored by her lifelong friend and professional chef, Joy developed her proprietary “recipe” for the patterns which manifest throughout her silk collections.��Joy’s desire is to add beauty to the world with a unique perspective and to empower women by encouraging their self expression.
Each original creation is hand signed and made with love - and joy!
