Eleven local artists featured in Creative Textures (PHOTOS)

Creative Textures is an exhibit of 22 works by 11 artists who are known for the textural quality of their art.

The show features the sculpted acrylics of Justin Gaffrey, colorful weavings by Margaret Rogers, art quilts and stitchery by Mary Zahner and Becky Brodersen, bold ceramic masks by Didon Comer, dyed silks and beaded fabric by Gabrielle Bullard, haunting art dolls by Ann Welch, expressive tile work by Sherry McCall, exquisite glass and shell collages by Mary Hong (South Walton Artist of the Year 2014), wearable bead weaving by Emilie Pritchard, and unique art basketry by Carol Dickson. Most of the artwork is for sale.

The program is being touted as one of the most varied and interesting shows produced at Northwest Florida State College South Walton Center, according to Joan Vienot, coordinator for the exhibit.

Each of the works is uniquely textural and would add to the soul of any home, she said.
