A portion of all sales supports the work of the Steveston Historical Society.
Marv Skelton & Arlene Skelton
This talented Richmond husband and wife bring their en plein air painting and pottery to the Pop Up space for the month of September.
Arlene Skelton has been doing pottery since 2002 and is a member of the Richmond Potters Club, Fraser Valley Potters Guild and Potters Guild of BC. Arlene’s exceptional skills are evident in the beautiful assortment of mugs, spoon holds, bowls and other unique pieces available this month.
Marv Skelton has been a member of the Richmond Artists Guild since 1994 and is the founding member of “Men in Hats” a plein air group of Lower Mainland artists that paint together every Tuesday. Marv believes that “art doesn’t imitate life, sometimes it repairs it”.
Patti Tan
Patti is a Richmond resident and a very accomplished pastel artist who has mastered capturing light against dark and then adds little details to her artworks to give the essence of realism combined with impressionistic strokes.
As a fan of Impressionism, Patti is inspired by the art of John Constable, Claude Monet and Edvard Degas.
