KDS Gallery Show: Melissa Schulz

kds_galleryHi, this is Melissa!  It was my turn this month to show my creations in our Kathy Davis Studios Gallery.  What a great space this is!  I was excited to share my work with a completely new audience.  I have been working with mixed media for many years and have been creating my baubles for the last 5 years.  Since moving here earlier this year from Indiana, I’ve had many people complement me on my jewelry.

I love playing with color and words.  From sassy to inspirational sayings, I have designed hundreds of soldered glass pieces that have embellished many little girls and big girls alike.  I love texture and different finishes – you will see that by the use of glitter and scanned textural paintings in my work.  Letters in many styles have also been very successful for me.

I think the “idea” of HOME has played a significant part in my artwork over the last few years, as I was anticipating my move.  These three collages express an ethereal feeling with their color and texture.  The sentiment in each piece is poetic and evokes a dreamlike response.
