During much of this time he has sold his work exclusively through fine craft and art galleries in Montana, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and California. His dramatic, tasteful vessels are rich with warm colors and surprising patterns and finishes.
Rob’s pottery workshops are scheduled as follows. On October 6-8, he will teach a pitfire workshop. Finally on Oct. 13-14, Rob will teach a Raku and Horsehairing workshop.

Then, in November, the artists of Cibola Arts Gallery ask the question, “RU2D2?”
The answer is yes, as the gallery will be showing the work of nine 2-D artists in their “RU2D2 Show” opening Nov.4th with an opening reception from 2-4 pm; the show runs through Nov.22nd. These nine artists range from pastel to photography to abstract oils.

Barbara Montgomery is a talented painter and craftswoman. She shows a large display of Christmas decorative items that she sells all year round.
Shirley Simmons is a plein air painter whose oil paintings are striking depictions of Southwest landscapes.
John Davidson’s work is represented in numbered and limited edition prints.
Marilyn Conway offers her fine art photography in both giclee prints and greeting cards. These hand-painted Silver Gelatin photographs are unique due to its individual hand-painted qualities. Executed in editions of 25, Marilyn’s photographs hold those tones reminiscent of Andrew Wyeth.
