Our classroom with nothing in it! We are getting the floors coated with an epoxy finish today to help with clean up as the epoxy will fill all gaps and provide a waterproof surface ! We are committed to constantly improving the facilities at Workshop so that it can be as safe, clean and functional as possible. Wouldn’t it be dreamy to tile the whole lower level someday ?! #studiogoals

In the studios: Hannah Petkau - @hannahsule grew up on the Gulf Islands of British Columbia and is currently based in Calgary, Alberta where she completed her BFA with Distinction at the Alberta College of Art + Design in 2015. Her affinity with materials began at an early age, when pieces of plastic, plywood and wire were collected and assembled with driftwood, rocks and beach glass. Her practice continues to negotiate this interplay. The integration of found materials, whi...ch are manipulated both by her hands and by previous unknowns, blur the differentiation of human and natural actions and exist in an intermediate space. - Just one of over 35 artists and artisans with a wide range of disciplines and practices in the studios here at Workshop Studios!

Can’t imagine Workshop without @aanneellis plants! 💚🌱🌿🍀🍃💚
In the studios: Yvonne Kustec - Yvonne Kustec is a Calgary based artist whose work explores theories around image and identity. She plays with representations of women in the media, reconstructing the figure through layers of texture, colour and gloss. Her process involves subverting conventional associations and experimenting with unusual uses of traditional and non-traditional materials. She works with objects traditionally associated with femininity such as vintage housew...ares, figurines and antique jewelry imprinting their textures to cover the body in simulated skin, armour or clothing. - Just one of over 35 artists and artisans with a wide range of disciplines and practices in the studios here at Workshop Studios!

In the studios: John F Gerrard @jfgerrard - "My work is meant to evoke an energy and illusion of movement: To be busy but balanced. Sometimes the drawings are maps, maybe variations of a person. Sometimes I am creating a scene. As I continue to develop my visual language and symbology, I hope to find gestures that are in some way universal. There is something fundamentally human about making art. The mystery of it all keeps me coming back to explore it again and again. Making... images in this way creates a closeness to an instinctual region in the brain that I am interested in fostering." - Just one of over 35 artists and artisans with a wide range of disciplines and practices in the studios here at Workshop Studios!

In the studios: Ryan Danny Owen - @rdanielowen is a visual artist and writer. His practice reveals notions of identity, love, loss, desire, and time through the use of the archive, bleached denim, collected pornography, and performance, acting as an abstracted documentation of queer past, present, and future. In his archiving project Mirrors and Windows, He collects found photographs of men from the 1950s to late 1980s as a means to examine his own sexuality and queer gaze a...s well as document a history with the potential to be lost. His work is a close contact questioning of what it means to come after. - Just one of over 35 artists and artisans with a wide range of disciplines and practices in the studios here at Workshop Studios!

✨ Can’t wait to finish this today ✨
Sometimes obstacles lead us to great places! Loving these underglaze paintings by @joserv! . "Today I started experimenting a little with drawing on my pots. Also, because I made a mistake and bought a clay with grog in it and after trying to throw with it my hands were on fire....that’s how you learn I guess, by burning the crap out of your skin... anyhow, transferred some of my sketches and painted them with black underglaze. Tomorrow I’m back to throwing some more boring bowls and cylinders and hopefully a darn pitcher 😒" . 📷: @joserv
