The classes were taught by Maureen Mou-sley and Ron Corey. The display includes pencil sketches, color and design projects, paintings, and Mixed media, which includes decorated clothing, wire sculptures and found-art sculptures. The sketches have been rotated over the past several months so that everyone has a chance to have their work displayed.

CHILDREN‟S ART FROM SHIGA, JAPAN (KOKA CITY)

This traveling exhibition of work by Japanese elementary school

students, ages seven through twelve, consists of seventeen paint-

ings, eleven ceramic works, eleven photo panels and two posters.

The elementary school is located in Shigaraki Town in Koka City,

Shiga, Japan. Kōka, a city of about 94,000, located on the narrow

section of the main island, south and west of Tokyo, is well known

for its ninja history and its fine quality ceramics. The ceramic tra-

dition there dates from the 12th century. The local sandy clay from

the bed of nearby Lake Biwa has a warm orange color, and makes

very durable pottery. This clay characterizes Shigaraki ware. Koka

City has three sister cities in Michigan—Traverse City, Marshall

and DeWitt—and the exhibit has visited all three.

WORKSHOPS & CLASSES

A special bonus of the Featured Artist series is discovering new information about artists whose

work we thought we knew. Judy Hamilton, for instance, has an inquisitive, adventurous side to

her and is an enthusiastic rug hooker as well as a painter. Judy Colein started out making

soaps and body products and is now immersed in both painting and rug hooking. Ginny John-

son, in addition to teaching, leading the local Habitat for Humanity chapter, working in ceram-

ics and hooking rugs has a whimsical bent that resulted in a magnificent snow dragon. Phyllis

Bigelow has a strong affinity for the architectural which is expressed in both her stained glass

work and her rug hooking . . . and the list goes on. Which brings us to Randy Krause: We

knew she was a painter and a photographer, but she also paints sets for Soo Theatre produc-

tions, the latest being this summer’s “Guys and Dolls”.

Randy Krause grew up in the Sault and now lives on the river, in the Charlotte Beach area. Many of her paintings and

photographs reflect her river view.

She began painting about thirty-five

years ago when she took a watercolor

class with Helga Flower. Branching

out, she took classes taught by Pat

Norton, Gordon McKenzie and Zoltan

Szabo, and began painting with oils

as well, later adding acrylics and pas-

tels to her arsenal as a result of re-

cent classes with Tom Marshall,

Maureen Mousley and Dave Bigelow.

Her first one-woman show was at

LSSU, and she has also shown her

work in galleries in New York City,

the Detroit area, Petoskey, and Sault,

Ontario. She has taught painting

and has watercolor classes scheduled

at the Soo Theatre this fall (see

Workshops and Classes, on p. 10).

Randy’s work in photography was an

offshoot of her painting, evolving, as

she put it, “from my quest for details

of objects I was painting”.

She found that if she ap-

plied theories of composi-

tion, color and design, the

photographs became impor-

tant as individual pieces.

In addition to painting on

canvas and paper, Randy

paints murals. Her first

were on the bedroom walls

of her grandsons (her son’s

new house “had big white

walls that were just asking

fo r i t ” )—a

hockey scene in the bed-

room of one grandson and

an underwater scene on

the bedroom of another.

About the same time she

attended the Soo Theatre

production of “Annie” and

was so taken with the

play and with the theater

itself that she offered her

services and was soon at

work making black

wooden boxes that looked

like shipping crates for “South Pa-

cific”. Next, she was asked to do sets

for “Die Fledermaus” and followed

that with sets for “On Golden Pond”,

“Oliver” and the Christmas Story.

This summer she painted the sets for

“Guys and Dolls”. The Soo Theatre

will be offering a painting camp next

summer for burgeoning set painters

for all the great future shows.

Randy has three sons, the youngest of

whom was born in 1982, with a seri-

ous disability. Her life, then, as she

put it, “took a new direction”. She has

served on several state and federal

boards of directors and advisory com-

mittees that relate to children’s

health care issues or to people with

developmental disabilities. She cur-

rently serves on the Michigan Chil-

dren with Special Needs Advisory

Committee and is employed with the

Children’s Special Health Care Ser-

vices Family Center. The latter is a

special fund that helps families obtain

e q u i p -

ment and services otherwise not avail-

able.

We were curious about a couple of

things—what “Randy” could be short

for, and who “Callum” was (her photo-

graph was labeled “Me, by Callum”.

We learned that Randy was short for

Granda, the name of her Norwegian

great grandmother, known as

“Randy”. She said, “I like my

name, but I can’t use it anywhere

in England, Ireland or Scotland

without getting a laugh.” Callum

is her grandson. The photo, “was

taken by my three-year-old grand-

son Callum. I was trying to get my

camera back. I like it, as it’s fuzzy

enough to hide most of my wrin-

kles. I call it my Diane Sawyer

shot.”

Look for Randy’s work in the cur-

rent EUP Craftsman/Le Sault Art

Guild Exhibit in the Olive Craig

Gallery.

TOM AND KATE MARSHALL TAKE THE THREE HUNDRED DOLLAR BEST OF SHOW AWARD AT THE

38TH ANNUAL SAULT SUMMER ARTS FESTIVAL

The three hundred dollar Best of

Show Award given by the Olive Craig

Gallery went to Tom and Kate Mar-

shall (Marshall Art Studio). The

couple took the Best of Show Award in

their first appearance in the festival

in 2007 and Tom took the Judge’s

Award in 2009.

Jeanne Tubman won the one hun-

dred fifty dollar Painting Award given

by the Le Sault Artists Guild and the

Art Store. Jeanne recently took First

Place in Fine Art in the Cheboygan

Art Festival. (You can see more of her

work in the current Alberta House

exhibit.) The one hundred dollar Best

of Crafts Award, given by the Eastern

Upper Peninsula Craftsmen and Na-

tional Office Products went to

Kayleigh White for her photography.

Kayleigh just took Second Place in

Fine Art in Cheboygan. David Bige-

low won the seventy-five dollar

Judge’s Choice Award for the third

time. In his seven years in the festi-

val he has won the Painting Award,

(2009 and 2004), the Design Award

(2006) and the Graphics Award

(2005). The Judge’s Choice Award is

given by an anonymous donor. The

M a r s h a l l s ,

Jeanne Tubman,

Kayleigh White

and David Bigelow are all

from the Sault.

The following awards are

all fifty dollar

awards. The

Aarre Lahti De-

sign Award was

won by festival

regular Richard Miller. Miller is a

carver of maple and cherry wood

kitchen implements—smoothly fin-

ished spoons, spatulas and more. He

lives in Millersburg, Michigan. (Look

for three of his carved wooden tools at

the November 6th Art Auction.) The

Aarre Lahti Award is given by the

Sault Area Arts Council in honor of

the late Aarre Lahti. Lahti, who was

Head of the Department of Art and

Design at Michigan State was twice a

Sault Summer Arts Festival Judge

and for many years was a strolling

fiddler at the festival. The Design

Award was instituted at his sugges-

tion and funded by Lahti, himself un-

til his death.

Ryan’s Jewelry gives the Jewelry

award, which was won by another

festival regular, Jerry Wygant. Wy-

gant cra f ts

smoothly inlaid

wood bracelets

and earrings,

often combining

a number of ex-

otic woods in

varying colors.

(Look for his bracelet with matching

earrings at the Arts Auction.)

He lives in Pentwater, Michi-

gan and has won both the

Jewelry Award and the Wood

Award in previous festivals.

The Fiber Arts Award, given

by Leanne and Gary Deuman,

went to Sault craftswoman

Shirley Harrer. Harrer uses

recycled fibers to create hug-

gable soft critters, coiled fabric

baskets, Christmas

stockings, felt boo-

ties and more. This

is her fourth Fiber

Award. The Graphics

Award, given by Cooper Dental, went

to Zoey Wood-Salomon of Sault,

Ontario. Wood-Salomon took Best of

Show in her first festival appearance

in 2006 and the Graphics Award in

2008 and 2009. Zoey, who paints in

Indiana. Karen Marken is

originally from the Sault. She

and husband Doug Schmidt

come back for the festival every

year and have won previous

Sault Summer Arts Festival

Pottery Awards. Their work is

available in the Alberta House Shop.

The Wood Award, given

since its creation by J.A.S.

Veneer and Lumber, went

to last year’s winner,

Charles Jackson from

Swartz Creek, in his second

festival appearance. In addi-

tion to his smoothly turned

wood vessels, Jackson was

prizes. Thanks also to Soo Printing

and to National Office for donating

paper for the children’s art tent, and

to Co-ed Flower and Gifts for supply-

cials for going out of their way to

make the festival a success.
