In and Out by Debi Martin


Wall Piece

Copper, enamel, mason stains

8.5 in. x 11 in.

After retirement, I completed my certificate of sculpture at the Glassell School of Art, Houston, Texas.  During my work years, I always made time for art and classes, including more than 10 years of night classes. My hands have taken a beating working with wood, and I am moving my practice to the wall with assemblage, enameling, and drawing.  As a process driven artist, I find enameling has so many avenues to explore and a very resourceful community willing to share all the rewards of experimenting.  The intangible begs for connection and to be transformed to a visual dialogue.  I find inspiration from dreams, intuition and ghost memories.
