Angela Lensch Gallery Presents Kay Flick

Jewelry by Kay Flick.

Angela Lensch Gallery presents jewelry artist Kay Flick on Sept. 5 and 6, noon to 5 pm. Become acquainted with jewelry that delightfully encompasses metaphysical energies while also providing a bit of pizzazz that perfectly compliments a favorite blouse, dress or t-shirt.

A lifelong Wisconsin resident, Flick studied Studio Arts at the University of Wisconsin. In addition to creating art jewelry, she’s done extensive work in textiles and porcelain, won numerous awards and has had work accepted into the Indianapolis Museum of Art, the Neville Public Museum and the J. Michael Kohler Art Museum.

Flick makes one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces inspired by natural minerals, rocks and gemstones, each one with a story that dates back thousands to millions of years. Once captivated by a stone, she explores its myriad details and begins the painstaking process of adorning it with countless tiny beads. Finished necklaces are boldly designed and intricately crafted with visual movement, reflections and shadows reminiscent of rivers and caves.

Flick said, “I enjoy the process of fitting precision cut beads together, the shimmer of facets and the compliment of irregular stone chips. Yet I cherish the imperfections in beads handmade by kindred craftspeople from around the world, other cultures. I feel closer to them. It’s a way of knowing them.”

Angela Lensch Gallery, open daily 10 am to 5 pm, is located at the south end of Egg Harbor, halfway between the Patricia Shoppe and Chief Oshkosh at 7653 Hwy 42. For more information, visit angelalenschgallery.com or call 920.868.5088.
