(Audubon, Iowa) – Artists using various media, such as wood, leather, glass and more, will show and sell their wares this weekend, in Audubon. Richard Longbow, represents the Audubon Christmas Craft and Art Show

One of the artists is Irv Hendricks, a good friend of Longbow’s, who primarily works with wood, in a very unique way.

Hendricks also works with metal. Another artist, LuAnn Barrett, has recently been on the southwest Iowa Art Tour.

Paul Koch, of Macedonia, who works with pottery with unusual patterns with an ocean motif. A glaze applied to the pottery makes it usable for food. Another artist, Judy Hill, specializes in handcrafted, functional items, made out of cloth, like aprons and pot holders.

Two other artists apply dot-matrix mandala decorative patterns to wood, forming crosses and more. And one other artist repurposes window frames into floral paintings, using resins and acrylics that deal with mechanical and nature subjects. Longbow says they create a 3-D and shadow effect when mounted to a wall. Richard Longbow will also present his work creating artwork with high quality leather, primarily from bison.

The Audubon Christmas Craft and Art Show will be held on Saturday from 9-a.m. Until 5-p.m., at the Audubon Memorial Building (410 N. Park Place, Audubon, Iowa).
