Ruin to Recovery

Painting - Drawing - Sculpture by Bob Nugent & Lynda Nugent

Bob & Lynda Nugent are established artists who also happen to be a married couple sharing a large art studio in the hills of Sonoma County. Although very different in approach and medium, their art draws attention to the world of nature, from the subtle colors, forms and textures found in the Rain Forest, to the powerful forms emitting from a volcano, or as Lynda says, “extreme nature”. Both artists, in their own way, take something from these encounters to create work that draw attention to the fragility and power found in nature while giving us beautiful images to enjoy.

From the Fire

San Joaquin Clay and Glass Association

Founded in 1981 by a small group of local potters, the San Joaquin Clay and Glass Association has grown to become a group whose purpose is to foster aesthetic growth in its members’ work, and elevate awareness of our art form to the public.
