Final four emerging artists at the Palmer Park Art Fair
Mint Artists will have a full tent at the Palmer Park Art Fair this weekend. We’ve been introducing you to our emerging artists bit by bit, blog post by blog post.
Here are the final four, who we hope you come buy and buy from in person on June 1 or 2:
Oluwaseyi Akintoroye creates photographs of nature, and increasingly of people and scenes from Detroit and around Michigan. She also sometimes works in water color or acrylic paints and she attends Cass Tech.
Selene Craddock makes felted animals that look very lifelike – from lambs to butterflies and elephants. Appropriately enough, the CASA and Clawson High School student will work at the Detroit Zoo this summer.
Jessica Fligger is new to Mint, and also lives fairly close to Palmer Park. She creates both paintings and ceramic tiles and pieces, and works with Mint Ambassador Barbara Barefield as her mentor.
Lia Massey is graduating from Cass Technical High School this year. She designs and creates original fashions and gowns (including the prom dress shown) and paintings of women wearing fashion apparel.
Meet all our artists in person – and buy their beautiful work at the Palmer Park Art Fair ! Hours are Saturday 10-7 and Sunday 11-5.
