Artista was formed early 2007 by three local women who wanted a permanent
venue to sell their work and to represent other artists. The gallery opened to
its first sale on First Friday in April.
Kathy Robinson Batiks is a collection of silk, velvet, wool batik, hand-painted
jackets, scarves, wraps, purses, ties and other accessories. Kathy creates feminine,
bohemian and eclectic pieces, all done using the traditional batik tjanting to outline
the designs before they are painted. They are then waxed and dyed several times.
Her designs are carried in galleries and shops across the country.
Andrea Abrams-Herbert Jewelry Designs are handcrafted from silver, copper
and brass; often combining semi-precious stones, found objects and miniature
figures. Construction involves designing, cutting, shaping and soldering individual
components of a single piece together. "I use patinas to achieve an organic effect.
Because my stones and objects are often uniques and one-of-a-kind, shapes and
coloration can vary" Andrea's work is also carried in galleries and shops around the
country.
Mary Lui Yoder operating as Bound Design makes hand-bound photo albums,
coasters and journals covered in decorative patterns. Some sources are high end
wall papers, fabrics and beautiful hand made papers. A graduate of the University
of the Arts in Industrial Design. Yoder was a former partner in Top Spin Design
which designed, manufactured and marketed an extensive product line that was
available in Crate and Barrel, Bed Bath & Beyond and many other fine retailers
nationally and internationally.
