Featured Artists for August |

Shara Abel: Composite Photography |
Where Image Meets Imagination
Through my photographic art, I create illusions transporting viewers on boundless journeys through space and time, offering experiences outside the realm of traditional photography.
Each piece begins with my imagination and a selection of my original photos. I then carefully craft the piece by incorporating a very detailed process of dismantling, editing, and reconstructing multiple layers of my images.
This results in a new, unique piece that tells a story of its own. Each of these stories gives viewers the opportunity to pause, reflect, and connect with the emotional and spiritual dimensions within themselves and others.

Morna Strengholt
Acrylic, Oil Paintings, Watercolors
|
I began painting in oil under direction at age nine in Midland Texas. My first art show was at age twelve. My work can be found in corporate, private, and public collections throughout the United States and worldwide. I have exhibited in National, State, and local art competitions in Texas, California, Michigan, Kentucky, and Florida receiving awards, Best of Show, People’s Choice, 1st, 2nd, 3rd ribbons, purchase awards, and honorable mentions. I moved to Mount Dora in 2017 from Islamorada, Florida Keys, and love to paint, Plein air, the vistas of Mount Dora's delightful lake, trees, homes, and city scenes in watercolor, acrylics, and oil.

Marla Montgomery
Fused Glass
|
The endless possibilities of changing cold, hard glass into hot flowing lava and back again into another shape, push most of my artistic buttons...for now. Working "hot" in Mt. Dora with Kiss My Glass.

Susan Davis Jones
Porcelain Clay
|
Working in clay to sculpt or hand build is one of the most fulfilling things I do. Inspiration often comes from the wildlife and unique waterways of Central Florida where I lived most of my life. When I enter my home studio, the possibilities seem unlimited and when one of my pieces finds a new home it feels like a part of me has gone with it. Art enriches me and the world!
