I don’t think we need to outline the obvious connection between our eyes, vision and our appreciation for art. Because we love art and are fortunate to have incredibly talented artists here in Weaverville, we want to share some of the recent local artists that we have been inspired by. We are proud to own and display their incredible work in the office.

Vickie Burick, who is also a local musician, specializes in natural light photography. Her gallery of fine art photography portrays a closer, more intimate look at nature and the world around us.  She perfectly captured an image of the total eclipse from last year that has a beautiful abstract quality that resembles an eye. Please explore more of Vickie’s timeless work at https://vickieburick.zenfolio.com/

 

Denby Dale is a mixed media artist residing in Weaverville, NC. She is known for her adaptability within several artistic mediums including sculptural encaustic painting, abstract drawing, and small format assemblages. The abstract approach to all of her work is consistently informed by the embrace of color and mark making movement, juxtaposed with form driven minimalism.
