The EYES OF MARCH are upon us....and we've got EYES EYES EYES!
Check out the recent hand-carved and hand-painted wood creations by emerging artist Kyle York. THE FULL GANG ARE HERE , with creative fun names!
They are hanging out in person at the gallery, in our gallery windows! POP BY FOR A LOOK and a SEE! Here are a few words from the artist, KYLE YORK about how he got started with this unique art form:
Two years ago I stumbled across a YouTube video of an introduction to wood
carving and I thought I would give it a try, the first things I made
were by no means works of art, but the joy I felt thru making that rough
looking carving was second to none! I have always wanted to have a
creative interest but was never overly exceptional at anything, but I
knew this was a passion i wanted to see through. I got down the basics
of carving and through lots of trial and error I also started
understanding the painting process to get me to my style I have now. I
plan to keep doing this until the day I can’t, and I love being able to
show off the weird things I come up with from the classic art of wood
carving.
