Heading out of Murphys, Sheep Ranch Road to Fullen Road will take you to Michael Gustavson’s popular stop. In Pennsylvania Gulch, Marlene Bradford, a popular ceramics teacher at Quyle Kilns opens her own ceramics studio for the first time studio and garden are filled with ceramic sculptures. Then head into the “suburbs” of Murphys to find Judie Cain’s sweet studio, where she will be showing her impressionistic oil paintings of landscapes and florals. She’ll be sharing her space with Theresa Vandenberg Donche, whose bold, colorful, and fearless abstract art complements Amanda’s painterly work. Amanda combines wheel-thrown pieces and sculpture to create animals, fountains and garden totems. Just a few streets away, Connie Bowser uses the forms of the gourds to make soft, pleasing work tied to the natural world with the natural elements like feathers and antler horns.įrom Angels Camp, take Murphys Grade Road to find Amanda Maule’s pottery studio. Ceramic sculptor Larisa Stevenson creates nature-centered ceramic sculptures and functional ware often decorated with bears, birds, bunnies, and other creatures.
Next stop: Angels Camp, where two artists will open their studios. A bonus: Her work is turn-key art, beautifully framed by husband Larry, who runs the framing portion of the shop. For instance, on one day, you might tour the entire Highway 4 route, starting in Copperopolis at Susie Hoffman’s Town Hall Arts/Gallerie Copper, where Susie Hoffman paints florals, pet portraits, landscapes and still lifes in oil and watercolor.
