Looking at, Talking about, and Appreciating Art

Sculpture artist Sayaka Ganz gives new life to old things, using scrap metal and plastics to create artworks big and small. Join her in the #shop to see how she bends, breaks, and welds her work into being.
Currently in the #shop we're decorating for the upcoming holidays and festivities. See how artist Malinda Henning makes her handmade Día de los Muertos ornaments, now available at the #fwmoa Paradigm Gallery, and join us on Sunday for the celebration!
Today the #shop looks a little different: we're looking at an artist collaboration! Helen Frost (poet) and Rick Lieder (artist) work together to create children's books about insects. Read on to see how their two separate creative pursuits come together.
Let's Talk SHOP is back at #fwmoa with Mike Kelly, an artist who focuses on color and visual narrative to evoke an emotional response from the viewer. .
Calling all photographers! We're in the (digital) shop with Fort Wayne-based photographer John Gevers as he walks us through his post-production, or editing, routine on his work "Goat Island Light, Cape Porpoise, Maine".
Heard the name John C. Kelty before? You may have met him at #fwmoa! He's given many demonstrations, just recently at the #Paradigm in July. If you missed him in person, see how he creates his watercolors in this step-by-step breakdown on the blog.
Starting from abstract mathematical concepts and moving to 3D renderings to create beautifully polished sculpture, stone carver Adam Boyle reminds us that art and math, much like art and science, truly go hand-in-hand.
Today we're in the Shop with Fred Inman as he creates an eye-catching vase for the #fwmoa Paradigm Gallery. Take a look "behind the bark" at his process in this Let's Talk Shop.
Today, #fwmoa is in the Shop with Mary Pat Wallen! Her stretched figural sculptures investigate the human ability to achieve balance, no matter the challenges life throws at us. See how she celebrates the imperfections of life in this #letsttalkSHOP
