Views of the Neighborhood – Lakeway City Hall Art Exhibit – Artist Christy Stephens

~ John W. Howell

Today we are going to Lakeway City Hall to view an exhibit by artist Christy Stephens. Here is some information about the exhibit and the artist.

Christy Stephens is a graphic designer, illustrator, and ceramic artist based in Austin, Texas.

 

Pottery Wall Art- “I like to evoke a sense of wonder and appreciation for the intricate yet extraordinary moments that occur in nature. The interplay of color and texture inspires the magical process of transforming raw clay from nature into functional works of art. I love the contrast between something new and fresh next to something weathered and worn. I invite you to explore my creations, discover the stories behind each piece, and find something that speaks to your heart to treasure for your home.” Christy can be reached online at                   http://cstreetstudio.com

We are catered by Moonshine in Austin, and our entertainment is The Righteous Brothers, Patrick Swayze, and Demi Moore.

  2. I didn’t dare touch any of the exhibit, as I snacked on the St. Louis ribs while I observed the pieces. Then I went to her site. Thank you, John.

  12. Interesting exhibit, John. You always do an excellent job of showing us talented folks in your area … and lovely things to see while visiting. Hope you didn’t suffer much with Beryl and that the heat and humidity isn’t becoming unbearable.

    1. Beryl went way East of us. We didn’t even get a drop of rain. The heat is in the 90s climbing to 100 plus next week. We are used to it though. We are going into the season we call Hells back porch.

  14. I’ll try the veggie burger. Hold the mayo! Got any mustard?

    John, this is a fabulous art show. I love each piece, and there is something about how it all looks on the walls, the collection.

    Thank you for taking the overall shot, as well as individuals!

    Congratulations to Christy on her beautiful work!

  19. I love the mixture of ceramic tile with wood – so pretty. On a side note, I’ve never understood why chicken and waffles go together. For me, it’s one of the great mysteries of the world.
