The Four Corners of Nevada

3/7/2025

0 Comments

 
Each Corner of the Chapel points to the relative "corners" of the great State of Nevada.
Picture
From the corridor, the entry is framed in the twisted and gnarled wisdom of the ancient Bristlecone pines with the Chapel's namesake bluebird featured in the transom.
Picture
​Upon entry, the visitor experiences the varied natural landscape of Nevada. ​
Starting with the serene aspens of the Ruby Mountains representing the Northeast...
Picture
...we move to the open skies and yucca of our beautiful Red Rock mountains in the Southwest.
Picture
From there we see the granite and Douglas firs of Lake Tahoe in the west.
Picture
Finally, we see the national tufa formation of Pyramid Lake and the rolling basin and range of our Northwest.
The intent of the design is to not only provide a panorama of our beautiful state, but to center the visitor in the midst of it all. While this Chapel will serve well as a meeting place for general services and worship of the creator of this beauty, it must also serve in providing a sanctuary of solitude during quiet prayers for a passing hero. This design respectfully addresses this balance. ​
Picture
Many people to thank.
Mike Northan,  Kit DeCarlo for all your help and long evenings 
A big thank you to Quality Tile and Marble for their generous donation that made this project possible. 
To A. Perry and St Marys Art Center for their kindness of utilizing their open space...

Celebrating Art and Heritage in Virginia City's 'Head & Toes' Project

3/1/2024

 
Picture
In Virginia City, we boast one of Northern Nevada's premier art centers, St. Mary's Art Center. They've recently hosted "Head & Toes," an engaging collaborative project involving local artists. In this event, one artist starts a painting by completing the top half of a canvas and then covers it. Another artist then finishes the bottom half without seeing the first artist's work. The final reveal is always a wonderful surprise!
​
In 2023, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Comstock cult classic film, "God Monster of Indian Flats." As part of the commemoration, artists contributed to complete projects inspired by the film.
Picture
Candace Garlock contributed an inspiring "Head" portion, depicting a bird emerging, which adds a unique touch to the overall piece. It's truly captivating!
Picture
This piece features the work of Corrie Zam-Northan on the top half ("Head") and Erin Shearin from TMCC Arts on the bottom half ("Toes"), who created a piece titled "Historic Flats." The collaboration turned out to be fantastic.
​ These projects showcase the incredible talent and creativity within our community, celebrating both our local art scene and our unique cultural heritage.

Restoration of 8 Stained Glass Panels at a Private Residence in Reno, Nevada

2/25/2024

 
Picture
The photos don't do justice to how beautiful these eight panels truly are. Sometimes with a vertical insert, over time gravity can cause a slight bowing to the panels. During the restoration,  7 panels were restabilized and 1 panel was completely rebuilt.

​A truly beautiful design, as pure as the first Sierra snow.

Veteran's Bluebird Chapel

12/8/2020

 
​During the first shut down, I received the state project for the Veteran's Bluebird Chapel,  this is at the Veteran Wellness Center in Reno.  

Most of this year I have been working with distributors at half staff trying to get the materials here.
It's been challenging  with the pandemic.  

I'm building a 98 panel mural with a deadline in June. This piece represents the four directions of Nevada, with the entrance showing the bristlecone pine.
​
 I must say, living  in and out of different hospitals and rehab centers with my parents for the last 15 years, I have never seen such amazing accommodations for vets and long care facilities as I see with the veterans wellness center here in Reno.

​Beautifully  done and well deserved.
