We've been busy this week visiting Village Artisans Artist Ann Bain and a recent newcomer to our village in Yellow Springs, Brian Mollar. Anne will be the next artist featured on our POWA blog and what a fun visit, along the way I also got to see a 2 futuro houses (how cool is that) near Ann's house. Brian Millar is finishing up a 16 foot painting that he donated to the Presbyterian Church on Xenia Avenue.
We also helped Beth Holyoke find just the right spot for her beautiful ceramic art in the Yellow Springs Permanent Collection currently showcased at Antioch University Midwest. Here piece is titled
"Family of Refugees"
ceramic, gold paint
The broken image of a small family represents so many, they, like hundreds of thousands more are on their way, to an uncertain road to a new life. Their old world is gone.
Beth and her friend Kaethi spent a month working in a refugee camp in Greece.
So many wonderful and inspiring artists to meet in our wee Village.
