On July 10th, we spent a near perfect summer evening at the
Blanchardville home and studio of Nana Schowalter and her husband Bob Berglund.
Nana creates metal sculptures and Bob makes wooden bowls and also does some
metal work.
Nana earned an MFA degree from UW-Madison in 1987. She was first
introduced to blacksmithing in 1984. The inspiration for her sculptures is in
symbols and objects found in ancient cultures. (www.nanaschowalter.com)
Nana and Bob have integrated their art into the landscape
and it was wonderful to wander their gardens and admire the plants and works of
art at the same time.
Thank you to Nana and Bob for hosting our Garden Club
meeting!
