We’re back with some new artwork of the week – featuring Michael Smith and Rebecca Zareski 😊
🎨 Michael
Michael Smith's art style is whimsical, colorful, and inspired by graphic motifs that influence much of his imagery. His fused glass suncatcher was a fun piece to create, and he especially enjoyed watching the image come together as he worked, choosing colors that are among his personal favorites. Michael says Inspiration Studios has positively impacted his life by surrounding him with supportive staff and fellow artists who serve as role models and help him learn not only about art but also about making positive choices in his everyday life. While he doesn't have one specific favorite project, he particularly enjoys working with glass because it reminds him of building something. Michael often brings his own crafting materials to the studio during downtime and enjoys using those creative projects as inspiration for future artwork he can share in the gallery.
🎨 Rebecca
Rebecca describes her art style as varied and enjoys exploring different subjects and techniques rather than creating the same type of artwork all the time. She especially loves working with glass and often finds inspiration in flowers, beach themes, and seasonal designs. For her flower garden stake, Rebecca chose colors she felt worked well together and immediately knew she wanted to create a flower design. Since it was her first time making a garden stake, she enjoyed the opportunity to try something new and had a lot of fun throughout the process. Rebecca says Inspiration Studios has expanded her artistic experiences by allowing her to work with mediums like clay and glass that she would not typically have access to at home. One of her favorite projects at InsideOut Studio was painting fire hydrants last summer. She enjoyed the unique opportunity and said it was something she never would have imagined doing, making it a memorable and exciting experience.
