Baltimore Show Retail Speaker: Sharon Church

Sharon Church on "The Complexities of Studio Practice"

Using her own experience as a jeweler, Church will discuss the myriad activities that inform and inspire her practice. She will present several aspects of making that may not be evident when first seeing the final product—the finished product is only the tip of the iceberg! And while many think of the creative act as simply the process of making, many other essential activities inform every artist’s output. Church’s include sketching, research, reading, gardening, taking walks, and immersing herself in other activities essential to understanding the form and content of her artistic enterprise.
