It is not too surprising that Mark should be concerned about how his work sounds. As an under graduate at Kent State he took a class in the making of musical instruments and be came so interested that he wanted to make that his major. Unfortunately Kent State didn’t offer such a degree and he had to choose something else.

He earned two degrees in it, a B.F.A. (Bachelor of Fine Arts) and an M.A. at Kent State. From Ohio Mark and his wife Nancy came to Penland two years ago. He was asked by Bill Brown, the director of Penland Schooke to teach jewelry in 7 concern rat ion, an intensive eight week course offered to serious students in the fall and the spring of the year.

Addition of lime improved production to increase profife as much as 5250/Acre. Sam and Tammy are a good example of the eight other farmers that cooperated with On Farm Tobacco Tests here in Yancey County last summer. As a result of the work of these people we are able to pass on to Yancey tobacco growers reliable advice on fertilizing, liming, varieties, diseases and numerous other production and management ideas.

H says "the person who ca handle both design an< technique is the real artist Design is what makes a pieo great.” Mark doesn't do a drawinj of his work before he make it.

Th< design he creates reflects th< ego state he is in and th< piece he makes is one that h< himself would feel comfort able wearing. His mood has changed radically in the lasi eighteen months. Whereas ir the summer of 1974 he was producing large, heavy things today he is making small, delicate, intricately detailed pieces. Very likely one can find on later work some fragment of nature-a tiny cluster of gold flowers, small bells shaped like a lily of the valley blossom, a pendant shaped like a curled up seed pod. Also evident is Mark’s love for beautiful stones, particularly opals. He uses opals of many different colors (black, orange, the traditional pinks and blues) and from different countries (Mexico and Australia, to name two). Sometimes he uses local stones.

In the latter category, people come to him, often with only a hazy idea of what they want, and ask Mark to create something. This is the kind of challenge he likes-to create something unique and fitted specifically to one person. His wife Nancy reaps the benefit of Mark’s design and ability. She wears an ornate gold flower-bell necklace he has made for her as well as rings and other pieces. This is the second year for Nancy of teaching kindergarten at Led ger School, a job which she loves. Though she and Mark have travelled to many parts of the country, they can’t find any place they like better than this area. They hope even tually to have their own home 7 and studio here.
