Home My WebLink AboutThe Lucknow Sentinel, 1994-09-28, Page 7Local artists featured in studio tour As the Huron region steadily becomes recognized as an inviting tourist -destination, it is important for local residents to become familiar with an alluring aspect of this lakeside region - its artists: Four Lucknow • and arca artists will •be featured during the -Huron Society of Artists' Fall Studio Tour planned for Oct 1. and 2, between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Peter Wilde, of Lucknow, is a fine arts graduate of York Univer- • sity. Besides carving figurative basswood sculptures and making limited -edition woodblock prints for art galleries, he occasionally accepts commissions. Another Lucknow artist is Murray Barrett, sculptor and vessel maker. His work is a result of a com- munion between the wood and himself in which the wood dictates the shape it wants for itself. Barrett tries to retain a part of the forest in each piece. William Creighton, of R.R. 2, Lucknow, just east of Belfast, is a watercolorist who paints local landscapes, wildlife and flowers from the wild and his perennial garden. His art is a natural exten- sion of his love of living creatures and their environment. Dungannon residents Philip and Pauli Sommer are glass desig- ner/artists, whose work reflects images of the balance of glass, color, line, weeds and seeds - an expression of the balance of their affinity. The tour will give local people and tourists an opportunity to see 18 artists in action in their studios, as well as the opportunity to talk with them and learn more about their creative processes and techni- ques. Brochures on this studio tour are available at the Lucknow Sentinel as well as other many public facilities. A map is included to guide you on your treasure hunt. For more information call 529-7561 or 529-3227. Congratulations to Rivetts on 45th Congratulations to Arnold and Audrey Rivett who marked their 45th anniversary on Sept. 23.
