PARK CITY, Utah — The Miners 9 exhibit space only has two more shows this year, at the end of August and September. Don’t miss out on your chance to talk to local artists about their art, techniques, and path to this exciting endeavor.

Art mediums represented in August

This month, Miners 9 presents a jeweler, two painters, two clay sculptors, one metal sculptor, one wood sculptor, and two photographers. All of these artists have their own unique styles and techniques. How often do you get the chance to ask questions about pinhole and experimental photography techniques? Have you ever wondered how to achieve different colors on metal?

Local artists participating in the August Miners 9 show

Alix Railton: With 25 years of experience crafting creations in gold and silver with precious, semiprecious, and rare stones, each piece of art reflects the joy and happiness in Alix’s personality.

Amy Englebrecht: Multilayers of color, texture, and intriguing shapes bring Amy’s animal images to life, moving vibrantly across the canvas. They are complicated and simple, expertly combined.

Brent Hale: A love of nature, creative fantasy, and a contagious sense of humor are the recipe for Brent’s unique, one-of-a-kind clay sculptures. Just when you think you have seen it all…

David Breslauer: With the American West as his palette, this award-winning landscape and nature photojournalist infuses emotion into each of his photo stories. Breathtaking colors fill every frame.

Joe Cordery: A long-time Park City local clay sculpture artist, Joe pushes his hand-sculpted clay to create organic shapes that surprise us with non-traditional shapes and surface effects.

Kelly Gallagher: The torch is Kelly’s paintbrush, transforming images of nature into a more permanent image with creative colors, textures, movement, and reflective light.

Paul Russell: Taking advantage of his medium’s simple defects, Paul’s creative sense begins with his ability to read the wood and create the perfect shape, texture, line, and form to complement nature.

Renee Mox Hall: Renee’s interpretive style exudes her love of both the landscapes and subjects that tell the story of her life in Park City and beyond. The viewer can feel the flow of life in her art.

Rick Graham: Fascinated by abstract colors and textures he finds in everyday life, Rick uses digital, pinhole, large format, experimental, and alternative processes to create his unique art.
