Celee Evans’ passion for porcelain painting shows in every piece she paints, every study she creates, every video she has produced, and every custom color and specialty brush she has developed. Celee extends a warm welcome to her studio.

 

Presentation Centerpiece Bowl Snow Parrot Tulips, Plums & Cherries Not quite large enough to be a true punch bowl but soo small for a generic bowl, this rimmed Presentation Centerpiece has it all!! Whether empty or filled with your favorite celebratory beverage, it is definitely "filled" with beautiful combinations that change and inspire you all the way around the bowl as you turn it!
This piece is being offered in Session 2 (April 21 - 24, 2008) of four sessions at Celee's studio during her 8th Annual Sierra Seminars. It is also being offered as one of Celee's sessions at the Tybee School (near Savannah, GA) February 26 - March 8, 2009. Contact georgiaseminarsbythesea@comcast.net for more information.

MEET THE ARTIST --- CELEE EVANS

As Christmas drew near Celee was still putting the finishing touches on her large Four Seasons murals that were commissioned by a Los Gatos client.

Here she is playfully transporting the “Fall” panel tiles to the kiln with a tiny Christmas tree along for the ride! The Four Seasons murals were completed just before Christmas and installed in January 2006. To see them in their very regal outdoor location, click on www.celee.com

Earning a degree in English in 1967, Celee Evans transitioned from teaching high school to teaching porcelain painting in the late 70’s. Known primarily for florals and fruits with unique background shadows, she is comfortable designing the tiniest box or the largest punch bowl! She is a faculty member of many US Porcelain Painting Schools and loves teaching internationally, too.

Celee’s home studio near Yosemite is constantly bustling with activity -  students from all over the country  painting in a “Sierra Seminar”,  murals and large commissions  being designed and painted by Celee for Silicon Valley clients, and inspiration for new designs coming from simply peering out the studio window at the deer crossing the creek or the flock of geese in the pasture.

Celee attributes her fulfilling professional life to a relaxed but challenging teaching style, a passion for porcelain shared by other china painters and an artistic eye inherited from her grandfather.  Most of all, she acknowledges the loving team spirit of her husband Bryce, with whom she will celebrate 34 years of marriage in February 2006.
