ARTifacts will be featuring Patsy Dollar & Sharla Adams.<\/p>\n

When asked about her art, here is what Patsy Dollar shared: This year has been very eventful for me as I pursue my art and the expression of it. I have moved into different mediums of expression and not been as active in others. This show is titled \u201cMultifaceted Perceptions by the Loose Potter\u201d. In this presentation I have attempted to show my growth within by presenting art that is as multifaceted as I am. New examples of Face Pots with more abstractions, and free form faces that peer out at you, and the addition of Crystalline glazes to add depth to the perceptions of art forms and their functionality. Also this year I am introducing experiments with charcoal and pastel chalks as well as acrylics. I have also brought 2 dimensional art forms into my experience.<\/p>\n

Sharla Adams is an arts and crafts designer who is a native of Clarksville. She specializes in jewelry design. She works for the Clarksville Montgomery County School System. Jewelry started off as a hobby for Sharla and now her goods can be found at Artifacts Emporium, in Strawberry Alley in downtown Clarksville. Her inspiration is from nature and from art seen while traveling throughout the world. The biggest compliment is to see someone that you don’t know wearing a piece that she has created.
