Ed Malcik’s Seamless Triptychs challenge how an individual image works with two adjacent images placed edge to edge to become supplementary or complimentary abstractions, yet still retaining their individual identity. The Triptychs combine the artist’s street photos into another way of seeing, playing with the differences between documentary and conceptual photography.  Please join us during the month of September to see his show and meet Ed at artist reception September 7th, 3:00-5:00 pm.

“BIG SKY LAND”
Encaustic paintings
by Teri Muse
APRIL 4th – 28th


APRIL 13TH, Saturday, 1:00-2:00pm
Meet Teri Muse, she will demostrate encaustic painting, give a talk and answer questions, please join us.

Encaustic Demonstration April 13th 1:00 – 2:00 pm


Encaustic is an ancient art.In this technique, beeswax and damar resin(a natural fir-tree resin) are mixed together to create a wax medium. These qualities, plus the translucent quality of the wax, create unique possibilities for the artist.

Muse embeds papers, fabrics and miscellaneous items within the wax layers. Color is also added to the medium in different degrees of opacity, allowing for a unique glow to the colors. Within the encaustic technique, Muse is able to explore images that have personal meaning for her and satisfy her efforts to create color and texture that compel one to pause and look.

Extended Hours:
First Thursday, 11am – 8pm
First Friday, 11am – 10pm
Mockingbird Handprints is also open regular hours, Thursday – Sunday, 11am – 5pm & by appointment.

Mark H. W. Hiebert is a multi-talented artist who works across mediums and disciplines.

Self-portrait

Mark views painting as a medium for expression of what cannot be communicated in words or music and for which the factual reality of photography proves insufficient. In all things, it is an effort at articulating something authentic that speaks to the ineffable thread binding our humane selves to the existence we experience in our shared present moment.

Short Bio:
