ASSOCIATE ARTISTS

We've added some new artists, so scroll on down. These artists are in our gallery and have much more on display that what is shown here. If you like the artist's work, come on by and see what else is available. We have from pottery and clay to glass and metal. From acrylic and oils to textile and fabric to stone and paper art. Whatever your taste in art, our 22 artists are bound to have a fit for it.

Our first artist is Emily Hiner working in ceramics and pottery.

Hello! My name is Emily Hiner and I am a ceramicist. I love creating work that has a purpose. Whether it’s decorative or utilitarian, I would love to create it! I am in my junior year at Cornell College in Mount Vernon pursuing Studio Arts and Ceramic majors. The dream is to one day have my own store front where I make and sell my work to the public! I have a long way to go, but I am excited for the journey!

GAIL CHAVENELLE

Gail likes to call her metal artwork "Permanent Paper." Creating three-dimensional images from a flat sheet by folding and bending, she explores the metal's kinetic movement. Whether it is stainless steel or rusted metal, for over 20 years she has celebrated, given thanks, mourned, laughed and sung with her artwork. Most recently Gail Chavenelle was awarded Best of Show for Dubuque's 2021-22 Art on the River with her ten foot "Resilient Generations."

DENISE MURPHY

Denise Murphy

I started alcohol ink painting a few years ago at the prompting of a fellow artist. I enjoy the vibrancy of the medium and allowing the medium to flow freely. I'm always experimenting with new techniques with this medium and stretching the viewer's imagination. I use recycled materials to get the textures and dimensions in my pieces. It is interesting and intriguing to watch the viewer try to look inside the paintings because of the textures and dimensions created. In some cases, giving the appearance of 3D.

STEPHEN HUNTER

Denise Murphy

Stephen Hunter was an Iowa farm boy who became an illustrator at a studio/agency in Waterloo where he created thousands of illustrations for hundreds of national clients over a period of 25 years. After surviving illness, Stephen had to re-invent himself now creating digital art, photo-composites and taking photographs.

    NANCY RASMUSSEN

    Nancy uses her imagination and mixes it with heat, enough heat to melt glass and create art. From small Christmas ornaments to beautiful platters, funny wall hangings and useful serving dishes.
