About the Artists
Carol Klingel
Living in rural Ohio I draw most of my subject matter from the undulating, lush, and natural forms all around me, in yard, garden, field, and woods. Rarely does a straight line find its way into my work. Shadows capture my interest and I seem to notice them everywhere, finding them endlessly fascinating and a fun challenge to capture on canvas. Oil painting is my favorite medium, although acrylics and collage are close seconds.
Tom Baldwin
A practicing artist since boyhood, Tom Baldwin began his career by hand-lettering signs and vehicles at age 13. He went on to own a sign business and frame shop, and at the same time began his long career as a bird carver. Tom is an master bird carver and amateur naturalist, earning many awards and honors at art competitions and exhibits. His focus is the bird in its natural surroundings: he uses materials such as tupelo wood, copper, brass, and bronze to create a narrative of the bird in a natural habitat with a seasonal and geographic context. Tom builds an awareness of environmental challenges into his carvings through the appearance of aging and rusting.
