Artist Betty McCormick and her husband run a garden nursery and antique
shop called the "Treasure Barn" on their farm in the rolling hills of
Amish country in Casey county. There central Kentucky home is the
perfect location for Betty to create her works of art. She paints on
vintage Kentucky Bourbon whiskey barrel tops and barrel staves she gets
from Kentucky
Barrels. She also paints on antique hand saws, two man cross
cut saws, round saw blades, and old records.

picture presented here is called "Mule Team" and shows her
love for

take custom orders. You can buy Betty McCormick's work through The

Leslie's style of painting is often referred to as folk art. She began
painting in high school and graduated from Centre College with a degree
in Art History in 1993. Whatever style one might consider Leslie's
work, she considers it simply her own self-taught style.

CAROL
J. PHIPPS
"When
life is
difficult,
hold onto truth and lean into beauty," is a favorite quote of Kentucky
artist, Carol J. Phipps. In addition to clay sculptures,
Phipps
has been prolific creating art work with colors torn and cut from
magazine paper as represented here in "Hope is a Fragile
Flower,
Remembering 9/11." (Note
the original poem below which was written for this work.)
Often
Phipps' technique for doing collage has been referred to as "painting
with paper;" randomly chosen torn pieces of color are like "scrapes of
wonder," Phipps says. Together, such tears tell a human
story. To view Phipps' on-line gallery click on

prices.

STRATFORD ART
PRINTS 
| My work is like my purse; full
of life
support devices that I can't quite put my finger on. Each piece of art
I do is a small drama; a narrative. The pictures are full of people and
animals. Sometimes the characters are people I know and sometimes I
make them up. My medium is linoleum, simple and direct. I print with
black ink or crisp white Masa paper. The prints range
in size from 6" x 9" to 24" x 36". The prices range from $20. to $300.
The
editions are limited to 50 because I print by hand on my own press.
