At their studio nestled in the Northeastern Michigan farm country, artists Linda & David Deming bring to life unique original fine art creations. Among this husband & wife artistic team's creations are stained glass & metal sculptures, cement sculptures, cement furniture, garden art and paintings. As artists they are not defined by media or materials but rather ideas and creativity. Inspired by nature, as well as, man's industrialism, they strive to capture life's energy in each new creation. Linda states" Art is the continual expansion of the mind and soul to the highest reaches of creativity. Where artist and viewer become one with the energy of the artwork. Art is the expression of life".


Artist Statement
Art is the continual expansion of the mind and soul to the highest reaches of creativity. Where artist and viewer become one with the energy of the artwork.
Art is the expression of life.

As an artist I am defined by ideas and creativity not by mediums or materials. Each idea enters my mind's eye completely finished thus telling me how it wants to be created and from which materials. Each finished piece of art work breaths its own life force. I am inspired by nature, as well as, man's industrialism. My art work seeks to capture life's energy and transmit that energy back to the viewer.
