EAT/ART @ Tipton Ashe is also FEATURING 👉

CARLA TAYLOR - seeks to capture the tensions beneath the surface, overwhelm and release, chaos and control, fragility and resilience.

STACIE WILLIAMS - prints everything by hand (just her, a squeegee and a pair of hinge clamps). Unlike prints made via automated presses and printers, each and every print is a unique individual, different from all the rest.

CAMILLE WOODS - uses color as her primary language, examining how we navigate solitude, love, and belonging in connection with the landscape around us.
..and these are just SOME of the fabulous artists who appear at Tipton-Ashe!

EAT/ART @ Tipton Ashe is also FEATURING 👉

KATIE MURPHY - creates work that asks the question of what happens when we allow ourselves to expand.

JEN OTEY - creates pieces that often tell a story about a day I experienced in the forest and fields around the region where she lives.

ERIC DRUMMOND SMITH - describes his creation process: “I talk to myself, and the paint, mumbling and cussing and singing off-tune. I stain my hands and clothes in ink and paint, glorious battle-scars.”

AMANDA SPRINKLE - creates basketry that draws ideas from traditional forms, pictures, and conversations with friends and family.
..and these are just SOME of the fabulous artists who appear at Tipton-Ashe!

EAT/ART @ Tipton Ashe is also FEATURING 👉

BEN CONLEY - creates these small works that are both documentation and abstraction, but rooted in real encounters with the wild.

BIRD HONEYCUTT - uses floriography to create sentimental images speaking to generational attachment, cultural heritage, and the trans and neurodivergent experience.

SUZANNE KOETT - creates artwork that lands at the truthful intersection of art, psychology, spirituality, and science; serving as a reminder that separation from nature and each other is an illusion.

MOLLY ISON - worked in the small space and thematic restrictions of the Tarot pysanky series that created a challenge in making fast decisions about which motifs she found most important and recognizable.
..and these are just SOME of the fabulous artists who appear at Tipton-Ashe!

✨ EAT/ART @ Tipton Ashe is FEATURING 👉

FAITH BELT -a visual storyteller, seeking the communion of story, style, and humble material… inspired by stories that hold deep meaning like Biblical stories, medieval and Arthurian legends, ancient histories, myths, fairytales, and folk tales.

RUBY BERRY - started tinkering with souped film and emulsion manipulation just as a distraction from her usual style of photography… The more weird things she did to the film, the more she loved the wild and unpredictable results.

LAURA BOWMAN - creates textile art that is a study in tension; a visual expression of the internal chaos of anxiety that appears controlled and harmonious on the surface.

ANNA BUCHANAN - through drawing, seeks to make visible the often quiet negotiations of care, survival, and identity that shape women’s lives across generations.
..and these are just SOME of the fabulous artists who appear at Tipton-Ashe!
