January Featured Artist - Marilyn Callahan

Fine Arts | Soft Pastels & Ceramics

Marilyn Callahan is an artist and retired teacher in the Lindbergh School District. The focus of her BFA was in Drawing and Printmaking, and her love for clay sculpting sprang from teaching.

 

In her commitment to affirming young artists, she founded the brick-and-mortar Hangar Art Gallery dedicated to showcasing student artwork.  Continuing to support the development of young artists, Marilyn created the Blooming Artists Project, pairing student artists from all over the St. Louis community with master artists. Upon becoming a member of the GSLA, her own artistic journey began to unfold. Meeting professional artists who advised and guided her, Marilyn found her work on display in shows, galleries, and venues around the country

​

Marilyn works with soft pastels and ceramic clay.  She is searching for ways to illustrate and communicate with her pastels the dire plight of nature. We will all be the unfortunate ones if we sacrifice beautiful plants and animals for our lifestyle choices. The subjects of her pastels, flowers, insects, and landscapes, honor the beauty of nature. Her whimsical clay sculptures of birds, insects, and dragons defend against pessimism. Their colorful and imaginative poses are intended to make us smile and stay hopeful.

Make Art. Make Friends. Make Moves.
