26 years ago I started looking for a new career. I happened upon Edens shop in Knoxville while living in Blaine Tn. I started painting furniture for them. They closed. I was so disappointed. However, I found a local artist in Knoxville who taught stained glass. So that is the route I went. I learned how to use a ruler and how to draw. In 2008, the market crashed and so I quit selling stained glass jewelry boxes and started taking my skills to painting with oils and collage art. Today, I am selling in 7 shops nationwide. I also sell on Etsy GinasArtHammond. I hope to keep painting and doing collage soon to be offered in a Knoxville shop. Thank you. gina hammond
Diahn Ott Studio
I make functional, small-batch pottery with a modern aesthetic. My forms are traditional in shape but highly decorative, utilizing underglaze and slip techniques to add texture and images to the surface of the pots. I also create sculptures from repurposed plaster casts that have traditionally been utilized in the production of porcelain dolls. In addition, I create cut paper and digital collages and paintings.
Emily Shane Art
I rescue old hardback book covers and make art out of them! I also repurpose old unused pianos into art.
Cat Food Collages
Surreal, Psychedelic, and Playful Hand-cut Collages
I create collage artwork using hand-cut materials. The pieces range from contemplative to playful, surreal to psychedelic.
