Dave
Naydock is a self-taught artist living in Pottsville.
Over the last 30 years he has visually chronicled the life,
times, and history of Pottsville, Schuylkill County, and beyond.
He has
evolved as an artist arriving at his own style. In trying
to define his surroundings, he has found his own voice. He
has executed 175 murals, 65 in Pottsville alone. He has created
approximately 2,000 easel picture on glass, canvas, and found
objects. |
|
With years of experience in the fashion and
film industry Wanda found herself compelled to combine not
only the creative aspects of these industries but, her fine
arts background as well to create thoughtfuly tailored and
at times thought provoking pieces.
Wanda's work has not only been worn by such
personalities as Faith Evans, Graph Nobel, Venus and Serena
Williams, but has been featured in such films as Spike Lee's
"Girl 6" and "He Got Game" as well as
the television program "Showtime at the Apollo."
Applying her attention to detail and tailoring
Wanda blends the past and present as well as thematic whimsy,
to create unique pieces for those who dare venture through
the looking glass.
