SEMAC Capstone Event
“Exploring Variations of a Bead-Woven Shape”
Sue Hammes-Knopf
Sept 1 – 24, 2016
The current exhibition at the Northfield Arts Guild Gallery also features the capstone event of Sue Hammes-Knopf, recipient of an Established Artist grant from SEMAC for “Exploring Variations of a Bead-Woven Shape.” Sue will have an artist talk at around 7:30 pm in the Main Gallery during the Artist Reception on Friday, September 23.
Jill Ewald is a visual artist who creates paintings, drawings, and sculptures. She explores how to visualize interior and exterior human connections though painting and drawing. Stylistically, her work is as abstract as the concepts addressed by her work. Often using a square format support, whether it is paper, canvas or board, Ewald works with oil paint, graphite, conte crayon, encaustic and charcoal, and recently, thread.
