Three new exhibitors will have works on display beginning today at the Community Council for the Arts.
Jeremy Sams of Archdale will display his paintings in the Hampton Gallery, and Tim Lazure and Mi-Sook Hur, both on faculty at ECU, will share the Permanent Collection Gallery.
Sams is a Christian artist who grew up in Farmer, with the Uwharrie Mountains and a rural country setting as his surrounding landscape. He took on the Pein Air painting method in 2011.
Sams won first place in the arts center’s 2012 juried Pein Air Exhibition for his painting, “School Teacher’s Garden.” He also painted the sports mural in the Woodmen Community Center.
Lazure is an associate professor in the Metals Design program at ECU. He earned fine arts degrees in the Northeast, and shows jewelry, silversmithing and furniture in national and international exhibits.
Hur is an associate professor at the School of Art & Design at ECU. The Korea native has exhibited her brooches, plastic cast, sterling, steel and mixed media in the U.S. and abroad. Fascinated by nature, she is especially inspired by peppers, birds, beans, sprouts and seedpods. \
