 Lewellen Daniel Padgett, a native of Richmond, Virginia, is an artist and yoga teacher living, working and practicing in Salisbury at her studio, Artemesia Artworks & Yoga Studio. She is a Virginia Commonwealth University graduate and has shown in galleries in Virginia and North Carolina extensively including the Waterworks Visual Arts Center.
This current exhibition at Karma in the Winston Salem Downtown Arts District is entitled Sweet Containment. Lewellen is a shadow box construction artist. She uses the parameters of various sizes of wooden boxes as her medium, filling them with objects assembled to express her thoughts on the spiritual and psychological aspects of creativity, yoga and meditation. Many are altars meant to be used for thoughtful reflection, a place where symbols and dreams come together. Lewellen feels that there are magical, connecting spirits housed in the artful placement of each object, spirits which stimulate the viewer’s imagination and participation in the work.
Sweet Containment will be shown Friday, May 4 through June 29, at Karma, 206 West Sixth Street, Winston Salem. |

The page on this link will give you summarized information on a recent study conducted in Minnesota on the economic impact of having artists in a community. Studies like this one have been conducted before, but I have only heard them from places like NYC, not from an entire state.
http://www.mtn.org/mca/ "The Findings of a 2007 study documented in unprecedented scope and detail the annual economic impact of Minnesota's individual artists. Seven studies were produced, including six regional and one statewide report, which explored both the economic impact of artists and looked at their access to health care and retirement plans.
