  • Don Kennedy

    My art consists of copper and brass media; it varies from flowers and plants to trays, plates, bowls, and wall hangings. Most of the materials have been rescued from the salvage yard.

  • Gini Campbell Annis

    To me, realism is magic. Not only is the artist working with abstraction of design and color, but also with dimensionality. To create the illusion of depth and form on a flat surface is to observe, understand and recreate the physical aspects of light.

  • Holly Gardner

    I enjoy designing landscapes, flora and fauna and hope to start adding structures and building in my quilts soon.

  • Jann Selleck

    While continuing to paint and work in various forms of sculpture, my current focus is in papermaking and related fiber and book arts. Visitors to my Studio will have the opportunity to become personally involved in the process of making Handmade Paper from start to finish.

  • ​Jim Annis

  • JoAnn Lippert

    JoAnn Lippert travels the world combining a passion for adventure travel and photography. Her passion for mountain climbing, trekking and whitewater rafting has taken her to all corners of the earth.

  • Julia Tachihara

    I’ve always enjoyed doing all kinds of craftwork from working with wood and needlework to beading and glass. I’ve been hooked on glass since the 1980’s when I took my first stained glass class.

  • Kathryn Dudley

  • Mary Love

    Mary Love Artist statement I have always loved to working with my hands and creating art. For many years I worked with dichroic glass. When I retired I decided to learn a new medium and started working in the lapidary shop. The stones soon lead me to working with metal, which I love. I currently focus on silver fabrication which is very challenging and enjoyable. I find the making of small component pieces the most rewarding, especially small flowers and leaves.

  • Ying Muncy

  • Mike Bond

  • Vicki Curwen

  • Sylvia Nunez

    I was born in Germany and prior to making Reno my home, I have lived in India and Canada. I have been a textile artist for 30 years and my work has been exhibited in Nevada and Washington. Recently I have been exploring the Japanese KUMIHIMO Technique. When designing each piece, special attention is given to the selection of the stone, colors and the type of fibers to be used for the braided necklace to best compliment each stone. Each work is one of a kind and therefore it is impossible to replicate. The same technique can also be used to create beaded bracelets and necklaces. I have also started to work with Precious Metal Clay and have created 999% silver pendants.

  • Susan Christopher

    I come from a long line of innovators, so it is not surprising to find me as a non- traditionalist painter. My work ranges from impressionism to abstraction to even surrealism depending on what mysteries happen in my studio. Sometimes I feel as if a metaphysical force is guiding me as I don’t think about my work but work before I think. Images evolve and a story forms that are then developed through materials and techniques which are redefined with composition, bold color, texture, line and shape. The excitement of the unknown is stimulating and makes me wonder, who is really painting?

Also, have been a Member of Excellence in the Southeastern Pastel Society and The Atlanta Artists Center AWARDS: Over 40 international, national and local awards in Atlanta in juried shows including.

  • Kay Tietz

    Kay Tietz is a watercolor artist living in Sparks, Nevada since 2001. Kay started exploring watercolor nine years ago when her daughter left for college. She realized that she loved watercolor’s luminosity and spontaneity, and discovered that sometimes watercolor even has a mind of its own which is quite exciting!

  • Eileen Fuller

  • Joan Miller

    Making hand built pots is my passion. As I start a series of pots, I play with textures to figure out which ones to use. The big slab of clay is like a texture sketch pad. Sometimes the textures suggest a shape; other times I start knowing what kind of pot I want to make. The exploration of possibilities allows me to find new ways to make form and texture relate in a functional piece.

  • Jessica Schimpf
