Nichole mixes her own crystalline glazes from raw materials, creating “color recipes” which she uses to finish her pieces. And she is constantly working on more, offering a new palate to satisfy all artistic tastes.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: "Book Antiqua"; font-size: medium; text-align: start;">There is much more to Nichole’s art than just the color, however. Crystalline glazing, “a process where crystals are grown in the glaze during the firing stage, (and) is similar to how geodes and gems are grown in nature.” There is no way to predict the outcome after firing; therefore, each piece is unique and one-of-a-kind.</span></div>

In addition, due to the lengthy amount of time it takes to master the technique and the care that must be taken during mixing and firing, few potters are using this type of glaze today.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "chalkboard"; font-size: large;">Held on five separate weekends during the summer months, IAP is an outdoor event held under the towering pines, cedars and oaks on Highway 243. It is centrally located, one short block from the center of the mountain community of Idyllwild, just 40 miles from Palm Desert via Highway 74.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "chalkboard"; font-size: large;">Idyllwild Art in the Park is a “juried-show.” All participants must first be approved by a jury committee. Once accepted, they find themselves joining a group of establish artists selling a variety of items including ceramics, glass, jewelry, paintings and photographs, all original. <i>(Please note: IAP is an art event only. Clothing, soaps, lotions, food, etc., are not sold and all artists must have a valid CA Seller’s Permit.)<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16pt;">An artist until the end, ceramics artist Teri Hudson claims “I’ll be doing this ‘til I don’t breathe anymore!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16pt;">While we sincerely hope that her future holds many more breaths, her past has included many years of breathing new life into her skills as a pottery maker both in Hawaii and on the mainland.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16pt;">It began in 1968 at Fort Ord in California. Taking advantage of the classes and equipment offered on base, Teri began her clay career creating “lost wax casting” jewelry. A labor-intensive process in which the wax mold is “burned off” during firing, it results in each piece being unique.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16pt;">But then, Teri is not opposed to labor-intensive. With each new process learned, she has tackled the challenges full-time.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16pt;">1969 found Teri relocating to Hawaii where she found work in pottery shops. Whether it was coffee cups, platters, cornish game hen crocks, or other ceramic pieces, she continued to engage in new techniques and learn with every experience. It was working at production pottery for a steak house in Kono that she "learned (many of) the skills she uses today." </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16pt;">Since moving to the Sky Valley California area in 2013, Teri has focused her attention on Raku, a type of pottery using a low-firing process. Raku ware is removed from the kiln when it's red hot, making it impossible to see the result until the piece has cooled. Her vases, mugs, plates, platters, and lidded jars are all one-of-a-kind, many embellished with Manzanita and natural wood from the desert. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: 16pt;">Originally from the east coast, Jim is a veteran, fluent in both Spanish and Korean and quite a jokester in English.</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 16pt;">After successful ventures, including police dispatcher and furniture refinisher, he spent 23 years entertaining others as a tour guide.</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 16pt;">Moving to Pinyon Canyon in 1995, Jim began “playing with </span><span style="font-size: 16pt;">recycling natural plant material.” He wrote, “My Yucca Art started out as simple hollowed out yuccas filled with dried grasses or flowers and became gifts to friends. Over the years I kept embellishing them and friends kept telling me to take them to art fairs. That's when I took a chance and applied to my very first art fair in Idyllwild.” An Art Alliance of Idyllwild event, Jim sold out long before the end of the day.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Although Idyllwild Art in the Park events only take place during the summer, our artists and musicians are actively pursuing their art all year long. Many have their work in galleries, online or participate in other events or show venues. It is our goal to inform you of as many of these events as possible so we have added a column to the lower right of this page. It will have many of the up-coming events listed by date. We will also post events on our Instagram and FaceBook pages. And of course, you can learn about our events and our community at <span class="MsoHyperlink" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.idyllwildartinthepark.com/" style="color: purple;">www.IdyllwildArtInThePark.com</a></span>. Plus, from time-to-time we will blog about specific “happenings,” like now…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">December 8<sup>th</sup>, IAP members Scott and Kim Finnell will be hosting a “Studio/Gallery Tour” at their home in Idyllwild. Open to the public, it will feature Scott’s glass artwork as well as a tour of a working glass studio. Joining Scott will be seven other local IAP artists: Sandi Austin (hand-painted wine glasses and mosaic art); Jerry Baccaire (“dotilism” painting); Lisa Coffaro (glass jewelry, suncatchers, etc.); Donna Elliot (mixed media, digital art, etc.); Neil Jenkins (paintings and drawings); Julie Roy (fibers) and Art Tobias (ceramics). We are hoping that this will become an annual event, featuring more artists and their studios.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">IAP will not return to Hwy. 243 until May 2019. In the meantime, we are always creating and changing. This blog will introduce you to new artists, new creations from our regulars, new opportunities to see our artists during the off-season and life (both old and new) in Idyllwild. Biographies will also be posted to introduce you to the talented individuals who make IAP so special along with links to their websites, etc.</span><br />
