Lance works in steel, stainless steel, copper and brass using new and recycled materials. Each piece is welded, bolted and joined as needed. The finished product may sport a natural patina, brushed finish or may be colored with pigment. Some pieces are made to be durable with an infinite life, while others are more fragile, and intentionally wear with the ravages of time. All of Lance's creations carry an energy that speaks to us when we contemplate it. "'Life is art. Art is life. I am life therefore I am art.' These words express the life I lead today and how life affects every moment I am. To create an artistic expression, from the materials around me ... is the highest of honors, and I have the opportunity to do this each day." – Lance Carleton Come to the lecture, listen and learn, bring questions, and see all the great art on display in the gallery. The FREE lecture begins at 5:00 PM sharp, reservations are recommended as seating is limited. Call 360-631-0688 or email doris@galleryintheloft.com. Located at Brindles Marketplace, 848 N.
