Nancy Selvin
SELVIN REDUX From 3 PM to 6 PM Sunday April 25th
April 1st - 30th 2010
New bottles and paintings. Refreshments in the studio garden.
Nancy Selvin's clay forms hint at the familiar, re-examining the spaces we inhabit........the bowls on a counter top, the bottles on a sill. Recorded in the clay surface is an investigation of process, toolmarks and the haptic application of color. Nancy Selvin is an independent studio artist living and working in Berkeley CA.
