9/28/24 Receptions at Blue Moon Gallery in Grayslake, IL for Dave Clausen's Wood Vessels & Beth McKenna's Woodblock Prints From 6-9pm


Dave Clausen | Wood Vessels 

Experience the exquisite beauty of woodturning!


View his bowls, vases, platters in a variety of woods, sizes, colors, and finishes....


Master craftsman Dave Clausen enjoys working primarily on the lathe. To help reduce waste, he uses “segmenting” as part of his process. He designs each piece prior to turning, then cuts wedges of wood specific to each row, which allows him to get the most out of each piece of wood. As he has gained skills in the craft, not only does he focus on design, but he also gives attention to the specific species of wood he uses, including its grain and other specific elements. 


Beth McKenna | Woodblock Prints 

“Working in different mediums keeps my work fresh. I try to capture the beauty of places I find most captivating: mountains, beaches, lakesides and the rural heartland.”

In addition to woodblock printing, Beth McKenna works in a range of mediums including painting, collage, and fiber installations. Beth has a BA in Art History from the University of Virginia and an MBA from the University of Illinois. She has served as Manager of Programming and Board of Directors at Art Impact Project, worked as Exhibitions Curator at the Adler Arts Center in Libertyville IL, and has been on the Printmaking Department faculty at both the Evanston Art Center and The Art Center in Highland Park. Her artwork has been exhibited regionally in solo and group shows and hangs in private collections nationwide.

 

On View through October 20. 

Open Weekends 1-4pm. (Sat/Sun)
