Angelia Wilson

Bio

Painting is a magical experience that she has enjoyed since childhood. Looking at the world through an artist eyes gives one the ability to take from it what you see and create what you feel. Her intention is to create artwork that will allow the viewer to feel the world around them, see the expression of the artist and develop an emotion for what one is viewing. Art evokes emotion and expression; within it, you will see the artist. Her personal quote to live by is, “Art is my breath, my passion, within it you see me”. Angelia is an Art Professor and has over 40 years of experience.

Heather Lippard

Hi! I am a local artist, a true Boone Goon, who has been creating art in various forms most of my life. I find it rewarding and exciting to transform a blank canvas, an old frame, a random scrap of glass or any knickknack into something new and original. A lifelong learner, I continue to seek out new ways to express myself artistically and enjoy sharing ideas and learning from anyone and everyone. Exploring new ideas and approaching projects with a sense of curiosity is something I enjoy above all. I truly believe that everyone has an artist within who just needs an opportunity to come out and play! My current medium is stained glass/multimedia mosaics and you can learn more about these projects on my business page, Broken Bits Mosaics.
