Featured Artist in 2021
Lynne Puhalla of Lynne Puhalla Studios
Lynne Puhalla says she has always had a passion for weaving and basketry. “With degrees in both design and sculpture, I love working and experimenting with the use of form, shape, and texture. Since many of my fellow artist friends are potters, getting my hands into clay was a natural. Eventually, rather than choosing between the two, I decided to pursue both!”
The Base
Slab rolled pottery with leaves imprinted to show the true marvels of nature.
Combined
The result is leaf imprints on functional pottery and unique clay based woven baskets.
The Baskets
Baskets are woven onto the clay bases and embellished with leather, copper, and beads.
Plus Functional
Garden pieces, vases and storage, and tableware.
Also Featured in 2021
Helen and Jim Bellows of Squirrel-Eze
These artists specialize in both artisan jewelry — necklaces, bracelets, earrings, accessories — and textiles — scarves and wristlets. Helen is also a published author. What a diverse artistic duo!
Chain Maille
Jim Bellows explains that Chain Maille is a series of interconnected, woven metal rings. “Once worn by knights as a form of protection, it has been refined and modified to create elegant, classic jewelry. We hand form and cut our rings.”
Silversmithing
Helen Yetman-Bellows explains she creates “signed original designs, one line at a time, combining simple ancient techniques to create intricate, complex results. (No two pieces are exactly the same – expect slight variations).”
Chain Maille Hand Tools
Jim uses special hand tools to create Chain Maille using simple ancient techniques.
Textiles and Writings
Helen also uses a process called sublimation to create wearable art on scarves and wristlets

Latest News
Craftproducers launched TWO new shows in Lake George in 2021. The Lake George Art and Craft Festival was July 30-August 1 and the Lake George BBQ and Music Festival was a couple weeks later on August 13-15. The shows are similar in some ways but very different in others. Both have great food and activities for kids. But the main focus of the Art and Craft Festival is on the over 125 juried artists and artisans, while the BBQ has a much smaller non-juried Marketplace with a primary focus on Barbecue Vendors and Live Blues Music on the Big Stage all weekend. There is also great music inside the dining tent on a smaller stage at the Art and Craft Show. Both events are held at the beautiful Charles R Wood Park, also known as Festival Commons. We hope to see you at one or both shows in 2022 and thank you so much for those of you who supported the shows in their first year!
