Sea Grape Gallery Artists Of The Month

Sea Grape Gallery is thrilled to feature two exceptional artists throughout the month of April—jewelry designer Nancy VanTassell and watercolorist Lana Cease.   Their work will be on display from April 1 to April 30 at Sea Grape Gallery, where art lovers can experience the talent and dedication behind each creation.

From April 1 to April 30, Sea Grape Gallery will be featuring artist, Nancy VanTassell, jewelry designer. Nancy has been creating art since childhood; in 2004 she became obsessed with jewelry designing. After moving to Florida from Poughkeepsie, New York, and eventually into retirement, Nancy decided to focus on her love for jewelry making and her obsession with wire weaving. As Nancy explains, wire weaving is an age-old technique of taking different gauges of wire and intertwining them to create a design. Her pieces incorporate wire weaving in precious metals, and often incorporate faceted and semi-precious stones. Along with creating her art, Nancy spends much of her time teaching jewelry skills in private and group settings. Many of Nancy’s beautiful jewelry designs are prominently on display at the Sea Grape Gallery. In addition, more of her art and the artwork of all Sea Grape artists can be viewed at SeaGrapeGallery.com. Sea Grape Gallery is located at 113 W. Marion Avenue, Punta Gorda, and can be reached at 941•575•1718.

Sea Grape Gallery will be showcasing the artwork of guest artist Lana Cease, watercolorist, from April 1 to April 30. Lana focuses on realism to hyper-realistic subjects. She has been featured in many regional publications as well as the Splash series, Fine Art Connoisseur, Southwest Art and the French version of The Art of Watercolour. She has won numerous awards in exhibitions worldwide and also has had multiple solo exhibitions. During April, Lana’s unique paintings will be on display at Sea Grape Gallery and can be viewed on Sea Grape’s website at SeaGrapeGallery.com. Sea Grape Gallery is located at 113 W. Marion Avenue, Punta Gorda. To learn more about Sea Grape Gallery’s Guest Artist Program, call 941•575•1718.
