Featured Demonstrator:  Rick Rollenhagen

Rick Rollenhagen, a Cleveland based artist, specializes in stone carving and mixed media. The title of this upcoming demonstration is Making Stuff Out of Rocks. In his own words, “I took a stone sculpture class at an art center in St Petersburg, Florida, where I’m originally from. Through this class, I developed an intense love for carving stone. However, being trained as a painter in art school I was initially very hesitant to change media and switch to stone. However, I started exhibiting my stone sculptures while I was still taking the carving class. I’m most proud of the fact that I’ve now become quite good at carving, specializing in exquisite tabletop, organically shaped stone sculptures. The most rewarding aspect of doing my art is when I sell something and when I give talks about stone carving. My goal is to develop a new body of work in my stone carving and to continue to speak to the community about stone carving. Today, I have my studio practice, teach stone carving at the Cleveland Institute of Art and exhibit extensively throughout Northeast Ohio.” Prior to moving to Cleveland, he has shown his work in several European cities and in the Tampa Bay area.
