Nature's Palette: An Exhibition by Lisa Conklin Conn

We are excited to announce Nature’s Palette, a very special exhibition of wall blooms from ceramic artist Lisa Conklin Conn.

Nature’s Palette is a collection of ceramic wall blooms, each representing the colors found in an example of flora or fauna from our region of the Pennsylvania Wilds.

Together these hand-built pieces flow in an organic line from black (raven) to white (ghost pipe). Lisa invites the viewer to look closer at each organism represented and experience the amazing species that are full of color and beauty from our natural world.

The less obvious details and colors are so often overlooked, simply because they are familiar to us. The beauty of nature’s palette in full bloom.



Over 40 wall blooms will be available for purchase during this special exhibition of artist Lisa Conklin Conn’s ceramic work.

View the exhibition at the Elk County Council on the Arts Gallery beginning April 15 through May 11.

The public is invited to join us for an opening reception on Friday, April 26, 5-8 PM.
