© 2023 ART TALKS WITH LUCY CLARK; Conversations Between Artists
Description
Lucy Clark, Owner of The Lucy Clark Gallery & Studio, will dive deep into the essence of the artists in her gallery and beyond to find their inspiration and exactly who they are and why they do what they do. If you have ever wondered what drives an artist to create or perhaps you are looking to connect with an artist that you admire, this podcast strives to deliver. Lucy will explore in conversation with other artists just what it means to create and where, down deep, we all want to touch another. That small, still authentic voice that yearns to give rise to connecting with others in a way that can be transformative for the listener as well as the participants.

What a beautiful world we live in.
Hope graduated from PCA (now University of the Arts) in 1978 with a BFA in Painting. After having her first child, she spent almost 30 years as a partner in a small design firm called Levan Design. The firm specialized in graphic design, product designs and photography in the china and glass industry. In 2005, Hope gradually made her way into her second career as an oil painter and now paints full time from her home in rural Pennsylvania. Her work is at once realistic and impressionistic with ghosts of paintings underneath her final work. She works for the painting to take her somewhere even if it isn't to the place that she had been envisioning. You can visit her website here. You can view the available work at my gallery here. You can also visit the website of her husband, Ken LeVan, who is a pretty darn special Banjo maker here.
Jeff Ripple is an oil painter who creates fine contemporary realist paintings in the Luminist and Hudson River School traditions honoring North American landscapes. Some of the contemporary painters that have influenced him are Joseph McGurl and Erik Koeppel. A few of the Masters that have made an impression on Jeff are Frederic Church, Albert Bierstadt and Asher Durand. His fellow artists that have been of immeasurable help on his road to authenticity include Clyde Butcher, Richard Currier and his wife, Susan Currier. You can find his work on his website here and available work that I have in my gallery here.Enjoy the conversation!
Steve thought he wanted to be a jeweler until he found metalworking. Since graduating with BFA from the University of Wisconsin in 1981, he has continued down the path of fine metalwork and never looked back. The principle of "Wei wu Wei" defined in the Dao Ta Ching as "Doing not Doing" has been a focus for Steve in becoming absorbed in the action without thinking about the action. This has allowed his gates of imagination to fly open and to follow it wherever it goes. You can visit his website here as well as the available work at my gallery here. As always, please like, share, comment!
