EARTH TONES
Oklahoma soil has never been as beautiful as it is when brushed onto a canvas by Narda Caton. This Oklahoman and Native American artist has gone back to her roots and is using the earth’s raw materials in her work. Soil provides virbrant blacks, browns and reds. Marigolds her yellows and Iris her blues and purples….leaves give her all the green she’ll ever need. No acrylics or oils need apply for the job of gracing Narda’s canvases. Mother Nature’s bounty is all this artist need. Join Gallery as we travel to Bartlesville to watch Narda turn Oklahoma dirt and flowers into paints for her pallet and blank canvases into rich and colorful portraits of Oklahomans from days gone by. If that’s not enough, the long time artisan also works with metals from the earth to create a distinctive type of jewelry you won’t find anywhere else. Narda shows us how she does it, just like she did 20 years ago when she had her own nationally aired arts and crafts television program. Don’t miss Gallery in September.

BREAKING THE MOLD
Step inside the studio of sculptor, carver and molding artist Kendall Howerton. His work is on display across the country in national retail stores and commercial buildings, but his latest project hits closer to home. Howerton is putting his talent to work to increase Breast Cancer Awareness in Oklahoma and to raise money for the cause. He is using Oklahoma models for his latest creations, pink ribbons cast from the bodies of the models who, themselves, are breast cancer survivors.
Gallery brings its audience into the very personal, artistic work of Howerton and a breast cancer survivor who has decided to share her story and her scars with the world through Howerton's art.
