Wonderful Woodturned Gifts from Mark Supik

Do you love the natural beauty of wood? Well visit Merry Mart Sunday, December 2nd and visit Mark Supik and purchase some hand made woodturned gift items including bowls, plates, wine stoppers, fiber arts tools for knitters and spinners, fly swatters, custom beer tap handles for homebrewers, wooden cooking & serving utensils, vases, candlesticks and wooden mushrooms. 

Mark Supik's creations are eco-friendly because all the wood used is from local fallen trees or repurposed wood from our architectural millwork business in Highlandtown!

Have Art Will Travel--Sogh

Much like the traveling gnome, Shawn Theron's paintings have travelled the world! From Bermuda to the South Pole his paintings have gone around the globe...but no need to travel to Santa's workshop in the North Pole this winter to get your own Sogh painting, just come to the Creative Alliance's Merry Mart the first Sunday in December!

I wasn't lying, here are his paintings at the South Pole!

Shawn's paintings are super cool abstract paintings of all shapes and sizes on scrap lumber, house parts or anything else made of wood he can find!
