Alaskan Artist Nancy Wise

Homer artist Nancy Wise brings shine, glamour, and sparkle to the Art Shop Gallery with her fused art glass and hand-painted silk scarves. Nancy draws from the natural beauty of our Alaska, applying a surprising color palette sure to bring cheer through the dark and capture the joy of summer's light. 

Alaskans love to entertain, and Nancy's pieces will make it more fun to serve anything, from sushi to kale salad to smoked salmon. Her work includes handmade Christmas ornaments and eye-catching barrettes. 

Nancy Wise is a multi-media artist who has lived in the Homer area for 40 years.  Nancy has been represented by galleries and exhibitions locally, statewide, and nationally, and has taught throughout Alaska as an Artist in the Schools.  Her lovely silk work has been treasured for many years and we are pleased to have her scarves in our gallery.  After almost fifteen years working as a cook and deckhand on ocean-going tugboats in Prince William Sound, Nancy is happily re-purposed, making art in her home studio in Hidden Hills.  Her fused artglass and up-cycled float glass pieces are bright, fluid, and practical.
