Stellar Gallery, headquarters for Sierra Art Trails

showcases one S.A.T. artist each month.

January’s artist of the month is Multi-Media Artist

Kathy Marks

Kathy is at her best when her work is free and intuitive. Her images creatively unfold by using the contrasts and textures of richly colored fabric, beading and touches of handwork. Each piece has an abstract sense of perspective. Her small-framed treasures, will love, grace, and capture the beauty of small things. Kathy’s works are a “One of a kind”, each having its own uniqueness.

Kathy’s work will be on display @ Stellar Gallery starting Jan 6th.

She will be demonstrating on Sat., Jan. 27th during “A Day With the Artist”.

 

Stellar Gallery is located at GALLERY ROW, 40983 Hwy 41, Suite 1
