An opening reception will be held during Hil lsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk on Aug. 28 from 6-9 p.m. During the art walk Cameron Mincey will play country and rock music on the front patio. The show includes an artist talk by Nell Chandler\, Adrienne Knowles and E velyn Ward in the gallery on Saturday\, Sept. 12 at 4 p.m. \nThe commissio n for a ring inspired a new line of work for jeweler Nell Chandler. The cu stomer wanted a band with brass foliage all around it. Though Chandler oft en depicts foliage on her jewelry\, usually she paints the image on the me tal and sets it in clear resin. The intricacy of setting brass on brass wa s a new experience. “I was a little surprised at how meditative sawing\, filing and sanding brass foliage can be\, and by the unexpected patinas I achieved on the band\,” Nell says. \nChandler’s niece\, Emily\, is a stained glass artist who loves wearing her aunt’s creations. Emily fashi oned little glass “gems” for Chandler. “I could feel my eyes sparkli ng when I opened the box and started looking through them and pairing them up. I spent the whole weekend making bezels and sketching designs for the m in my sketchbook\,” Nell says. \nAlthough painter and printmaker Adrie nne Knowles doesn’t approach paintings with patterns in mind\, they ofte n appear in the choices she makes – the warm colors\, the tendency to pl ace something recognizable in an abstract\, favorite techniques\, tools an d materials. Most of her paintings are acrylic\, mixed media and collage\, though she also works in oil and cold wax medium. Some of the paintings i n this show are monotypes\, one-of-a-kind layered acrylic prints on paper made using a gel printing plate. “I love for viewers to feel a little su rprise when they observe a painting from a distance\, then move closer to find patterns and randomness\, the energy or stillness\, the familiar or j ust the vague reminder of something they can’t quite remember\,” Adrie nne says. \nPotter Evelyn Ward tells her students\, “when you can’t th ink of how to decorate a pot\, go with stripes. I say it a little jokingly \, but I don’t think it’s bad advice.” Ward has always been drawn to pots with patterns. Their predictable repetition and rhythm give a sense of order. \n“I’ve been employing a lot of patterns because they work s o well with monoprinting\, which I use on all of my work\,” Evelyn says. Monoprinting is a transfer method in which colored slip is painted onto c ut pieces of paper\, which are applied to a leather-hard piece of pottery after the slip has dried a little. When the paper is pulled off\, the slip stays transferred to the surface of the pot. This printing technique give s the pieces a distinctive look and texture\, and lends itself very well t o patterns. \nThe Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned by 21 local artist s featuring painting\, sculpture\, photography\, glass arts\, jewelry\, tu rned wood\, handcrafted furniture\, pottery\, scratchboard and mixed media .
