A Twist on Stained Glass...and other materials

Regina Bridgman 2017
Regina Bridgman has been creating some new pieces using her stained glass techniques but with a different twist. After having to give up her leaded work for health reasons, Regina cleverly began to make stepping stones and indoor/outdoor art pieces (think doorstops, decorative pieces for the garden) with the stained glass that she loves and working with.  Soon came other concrete pieces featuring words, phrases and symbols that are meant to inspire or just bring a smile to someone.

Come see Regina and the eleven other artists at ArtBrake! this June 10 and 11 at the beautiful Bluebird Farm studio and grounds in Chatham County.  See www.ArtBrake.net for more information or look for our postcards in local shops and eateries.

2017 ArtBrake! - Twelve Artists in One Location


Spalted Maple Bowl by Jeff Clark

2017 ArtBrake! is coming!  We're doing things a little differently this year in hopes that we'll have the weather in our favor.  So this year, ArtBrake! will be June 10 and 11.

We are also going to make it easy on those who want to see all of our artists but have a hard time getting to every stop.  This year we will all be at Linda Anderson's beautiful Bluebird Farm Studio.  Twelve artists (including Jeff and Jon Clark - new this year) will be in one location.

So start thinking about all the places and people in your life that need art.  There will be wood, jewelry, paintings, mobiles, garden art, sculpture, folk art, pottery...there will be a lot!
Looking forward to seeing your there!

Confluence of Eclectic Influences



ArtBrake! is honored to have among our artists, Dr. Richard (Dick) Seed.

The art of Dick Seed is a magical glimpse into the complexities of the man himself. 

Upon retirement, Dick transitioned from Scientist, Teacher, Professor, Researcher, School of Public Health Chair … 
to full time Artist. 

Using media ranging from pen and ink, watercolors, metal, and wood, Dick creates visual pictures of abstract themes. His unexpected art spans from to frolicking to reflective and wistful.

Initially interested in Cubism, his sight turned to interpretations of objects through the geometric form and structure of the triangle. He has thence been donned the father of the new art, “Trianglism.” 

Whether carved animals, fantasy beings, whimsical canes, intricate wood murals, or contemporary works from found objects, Dick’s genius shines through his artistic variations in all their forms. 

Make sure to allow yourself enough time to spend in his studio, laughing, touching, exploring and pondering the inspired diversity in his inventive world.
