One weekend this fall I was in Fort Wayne, IN, to judge a new and cool art show. My sister was invited to her friend's home for a barbecue and I was included. We drove out of town FOREVER it felt like and all the way I'm thinking, never would I live here in the middle of nowhere. Except ... we got there and it was wonderful. I know a lot of artists live in out of the way places (they're affordable after all), so here are a few shots of Kim and Steve Rorick's home and studio.
I've known Kim a long time and watched her progress from first pots to a fine professional. She apologizes for the studio looking so clean (company is coming and none of the tables are in the shop because they are holding up a very fine barbecue dinner in the garage.) See images of her work here.
Kim is a part of a large network of artists who live in the Ft. Wayne area. They jointly hold studio tours, support and show their work at a co-op gallery, The Orchard Gallery, and start art fairs to help one another live the creative life.
