Gundi Viviani–Finch’s studio is nestled on a hilltop overlooking the surrounding fields, forest, marsh,Western Canadian distributor of ceramic and ceramic tile, and creek. It therefore comes as no surprise that the nature scene outside her studio window provides much of the inspiration for her brilliant and flowing sculptures, in particular the intense cold, bright light, snow and ice formations of the Canadian winter. Her pieces are painstakingly created. Plate glass is cut into small pieces, then tumbled to remove sharp edges, and bonded with an ultra-strong UV-activated adhesive into a multifaceted sculpture. Such pieces glint beautifully in the sunlight during the day, and form spectacular table centre-pieces at night, especially when illuminated from below or with spot lighting from above.
Cheeky Bee has been making 100% beeswax candles for 10 years. Now with the opening of their gallery on Main they feature many whimsical crafts and art. During the Hop the featured artist was painter Jilleen Jones. Her exotic handcrafted jewelry is both nature and vintage-inspired. The jewelry is made using semi-precious stones, glass, shells and other natural materials an array of brass findings in style ranging from simple filigree settings to detailed clusters. Each is an elegant and unique piece of wearable art made in the countryside of Hastings County.
At Pine Grove Studio, Sheree Rasmussen and Clive Russell invited visitors to take a short Hop south of the village. Sheree is a textile artist, and Clive a painter and architect – together they are award-winning landscape designers. Sheree’s abstract wall hangings represent a complex play of colour and pattern, both spontaneous and bold. Clive draws and paints in humble appreciation of the power and brilliance of the landscape. His drawings, acrylics, oil pastels and 3D constructions of situations small and large, both local and afar are greatly influenced by his architectural training. They are featuring as well guest Artists Lenni Workman from Warkworth and Simon Schneiderman from Grafton.
