HDC Guest Artists

Talented, professional and skilled, High Desert Creations is pleased to have four guest artists at STUDIO #14 during the Hidden In The Hills Studio Tour & Sale.

(above) In her brand-new works, realistic oil painter Barbara Rudolph brings the styles and colors of Mexico telling a story where all the fun begins! Party! Fiesta! Forever!

(above) HITH is the only show Morrie Elmer participates in – bringing with him from his home in the White Mountains an astonishingly wide range of shapes and sizes of decorative hollow vessels to STUIO #14. Gathering all of his turning stock himself, Morrie works with mostly western hardwoods – favoring Olive, Manzanita, Desert Ironwood, Mesquite, Carob, Pistachio, various Oaks, and any burl wood – filling the natural crevices with inlays of semi-precious stones.

(above) Acrylic painter Jan Griggs’s work is a collection of places, feelings of color, movement and stillness that translates into non-representational abstracts. Each work is intuitive allowing the viewer to engage imagination, interpreting and reacting to what they see.

(above) Uniquely creative, Rob Stenberg’s mediums include canvas, wood panels, tobacco barn wood, watercolor paper, and refurbished antique furniture; he also constructs mixed media pieces incorporating found objects, African porcupine quills, antique acquisitions, handmade paper and air-dry clay. Contemporary gallery wrapped pieces feature Southwest and Tribal depictions of Warriors and Shaman – each piece portrays great strength and spirit – sometimes with a bit of whimsy.

Be sure to visit High Desert Creations Studio #14 November 26, 27 & 28 – all artists enjoy talking techniques, inspirations – they are happy to answer your questions and happy to help with your artwork selections.
