Brenda Schlegel’s work ebbs and flows, but it is always evolving. She states: “While I am wanting to do more with ‘patinaing’ on a larger scale, maybe for sculpture, with the jewelry I have gone back to wanting to work basically with the metals: silver, gold, bronze and copper. Essentially, I like inserting a piece of rich colored, shiny  metal, gold, bronze, or copper, into a contrasting background metal that is textured and in a subdued different color.”

 

 

She plans to have a variety of new pieces for the Art at the Matador this year. Brenda will be sharing a exhibit room with Cynthia Sexton this year.
