Take in the Arts while on the road and at home

I never get tired of viewing incredible art. While traveling and at home I find the time to discover new and exciting arts opportunities. This weekend I joined my frind Judy Nicklson on the Third Saturday Art Walk and discovered a new artist and inspiration. I was speachless as we entered the Blueline Gallery to celebrate "Earth Day" interpreted by Landscape Sculptor Deanna Marsh.



She really brings out the beauty of our earth in sculptural form. Deanna Marsh with Central Park Studio produces sculptures in metal, stone and kiln-formed glass. Deanna's landscape sculptures take inspiration from the foothills surrounding her Auburn California home, and from the varied terrains of the western United States that span mountains, canyons, forests, deserts and the Pacific coastline. “I live in an area of unlimited inspiration… the American River Canyon is worth honoring through my art and preserving through my vision of its diversity of life and natural beauty,” said Deanna about the focus of her artwork. “Contemplating and interpreting this beauty through my art gives our community a new view of the canyon and Folsom Lake which I hope will encourage care and preservation.” said Deanna. In steel, copper, aluminum and glass, Deanna’s sculpture reconnects the viewer with that which is so removed now from daily experience—a relationship with the natural world. Her interpretation of the local beauty of the American River canyon, its geography and biology, inspire shapes that shimmer with reflected light and natural patinas. She brings what’s best of our natural world to our urban landscape through modern materials and classic forms.
