The Studios
|
Charles Herndon works out of
his studios on Kelleys Island in Lake Erie, a sculpture studio built in 1980
and a painting and photography studio built in 2000. He also has some
studio space in Columbus Ohio, where, at the Columbus College of Art and
Design, he has taught for the last thirty years. His work derives, in large
part, from his experience of the natural features and processes he has
observed on the island. His sculpture in stone, wood and metal has been a
focus for him, as have been painting and photography. As time has gone on
and the hazards linked to sculpture and to teaching in a constantly polluted
atmosphere have taken their toll, he has spent an increasing amount of time
painting and working on his photographs.

In 2000 he built a gallery on Kelleys Island,
a two-story 48x35 foot building. In 2002 he built another two-story
building of the same size. Over that time he has been developing a
sculpture garden in a ten-acre area around the galleries. The newer of the
two galleries contains space dedicated to exhibiting the work of other
artists.
