WARSAW — The Lakeland Art Center & Gallery will open March 1 with exhibiting artist Samara Dulik and Kim Marcadis.

Samara is a self-taught artist working primarily in acrylics, spray paints, inks, Posca pens and at times, finger painting. Her own lyrical figuration uses bold color and whimsical elements. This is her own personal brand of painting that highlights color through the introduction of Graffitism.

Kim is a potter from North Webster. In 2004, she left for Matthews, N.C., and in 2005, she enrolled in classes at Clayworks Studio and Gallery in Charlotte, N.C. In 2016, Kim returned to North Webster and opened her own studio and gallery where she creates functional pottery with lots of color and texture. Her inspiration comes from nature. She often adds frogs, turtles, birds and dragonflies to her clay pieces. Kim enjoys exploring working with clay and surface designs using many different processes, techniques and materials.

Both artists work will be on exhibit from March 1-26. Their exhibit can be enjoyed from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday at the Lakeland Art Center & Gallery, 302 E. Winona Ave., Warsaw. There is no cost for admission.

It is the mission of the Lakeland Art Association to further the visual arts in Kosciusko and surrounding counties by challenging the creative spirit of local artists and community residents through visual arts education, the sharing of creative endeavors and public exhibits and events.
