I am fortunate to have work by additional artists on display and for sale at the gallery.  I personally own pieces by all of these artists, and would like you to have the same opportunity.

Craig Henry

Craig Henry of Fountainhead Woodworks in Mukwonago, Wisconsin inherited his love of woodworking from his father and grandfather, both master craftsmen. In his words: I love all aspects of woodworking, picking projects that are functinoal, decorative, or both. My taste runs to arts and crafts style. I find it fulfilling to think that someone else values my work and wants to display it in their home.

Pen Circle
Dennis and Donna Dickey

Brother Dennis Dickey and his wife Donna have been creating one of a kind, hand made writing instruments for over 5 years. Using exotic and domestic woods, laminated woods and acrylics, each pen or pencil is hand turned, assembled and finished for both durability and beauty.  Their pens have found homes both in the U.S. and internationally in countries that include India, Germany and The Phillipines.

Elaine Paulson .... Wall Pocket
Elaine Paulson

Elaine has over 30 years of work as a potter.  Her pieces are hand-formed, using actual, natural components such as leaves, tree bark and more, to mold the individual elements of each work.  The gallery is fortunate to have several of her wall pockets with arrangements, mirrors and sculptures on display.  Each piece is high fired, making them both durable and functional.  Elaine also hosts Nature’s Impressions studio visits by appointment in Deerfield, Illinois.
