Bridge Road Fine Arts in Hobe Sound, FL

Glen and Suzan moved to Florida permanently 4 years ago after a lifetime of traveling around the world, much of it on luxury yachts skippered by Glen.  They clearly used the time in global beauty spots to hone their photography skills and we are delighted to welcome them as contributing artists to Bridge Road Fine Arts.

Ray Reiland is both a master Wood Turner and a Sculptor. He started out making leather goods, then  gravitated toward wood turning following a inspirational demonstration in the early 80s.  Ray joined Gold Coast Woodturners, where he won several awards over the years.  

The woods he works with are donated from local tree trimmers and include Mahogany, Norfolk Island Pine, Rosewood and Mango.

When you start a project with one of the logs you never truly know what you will get.  The color may vary from dark to light there may be knots and the grain can be plain to wild and beautiful.  Because of these variations you must work with what nature gave us.  

Butterfly Wood Bowl

Ray says his goal is to arrive a something that is unusual, useful and beautiful - we think he achieved that here with this beautiful wooden butterfly bowl.

Her fresh, lively, joyful and original art consists of a bright palette of small, individually-colored, hand-cut foam pieces adhered to a canvas like an unconventional puzzle.
