It is the creatures who live near his home in Northern California that inspire artists Jan wax and Chris Bing.You can see these creatures in ceramic form today and tomorrow of the fifth Festival of arts."Chris tends to really long conversations with naturalists and teachers of biology because their animals are as true-to-life, because people can identify them," said wax.Bing, a sculptor, makes the ceramic creatures: tree frogs and dragonflies of his property, more exotic animals in the world, which bind to the pottery of wax. She makes vessels, jars and other vessels of clay stoneware and porcelain.
The husband and wife team has shown in the Festival of Arts of the fifth 15 years ago, wax said."It is our absolute favorite", wax said. "It seems that it has a very well-informed clientele and are enthusiastic about our work."Wax and Bing have worked together for over 35 years. Create parts as well as individually.Wax sold his dishes and vases without sculptures, suitable for ikebana and other styles of floral arrangements.
Wax said that "I always have been attracted to the harvest, aesthetics, Japanese". "The imaginative designs in daily ceramics and textiles and the use of vibrant enamel."Bing makes independent sculptures, sometimes using field guides and other photographic sources."His sculptures are so finely detailed that each piece reveals the attention that he has to portray the animal respectfully", wax said.Do not use molds in any of their work.
As jewelry adorns the body, metal sculptor Dan McCabe sees his art to decorate the House."Every one of my pieces has the feeling of costly jewelry: luxury, meticulously designed and exquisite," McCabe said.At the age of 19 years, it was hired as an apprentice in one of the fine art of bronze early in Seona, Arizona castings for the next 20 years, McCabe dominates every facet of the lost-wax casting and manufacture of the precision necessary to produce a bronze sculpture.
Today uses the bronze, steel and aluminum to create sculptures, pieces of wall, banks and tables."I have also fun to carry my love of skateboarding in the sphere of art by making Skate Super funky, outrageous tables," McCabe said.Often with texture and angular, the pieces "beg to be touched, explored and discovered", said. "There is more than what the eye can see".McCabe has been deaf from an early age and became his other senses, he said."I like creating pieces that are a feast for the eyes with tangible texture," McCabe said.
Read lips and enjoy shows because you can establish connections with the people who buy his work, he said. His 14-year-old son will join aid McCabe communicate.He join his father in jumps, as well. "Can not wait to hit the skate park of La Quinta with my son," said McCabe. "You know, all work and no play makes a sad artist!"
