On display now through July, 2010 in the Pine Art Gallery are original works of art created by PTC student and Pine Citian Angela Filler. A native of Pine City, and a self-described "one-man band" in art, Filler has been performing and creating artistic works since childhood. Her first public work of art, a mural, appeared at the Rock Creek Motor Shop and was designed to promote a new meat and cheese shop at the truck stop. Since then, Filler’s varied and diverse works in paint, sketch, realistic renditions, comic book drawings and photography have been featured at the state fair, many art festivals and many local coffee shops and restaurants.
"I enjoy many forms of art and creating art, and I'm proud my work is on display at PTC," Filler says. "I enjoy painting, but I prefer to sketch with graphite pencil, and my own favorites typically feature wildlife," Filler adds.
Filler holds a degree in graphic design from Brown College, but her creativity doesn’t stop with the visual arts — an accomplished writer, actress and musical performer, Filler is pursuing additional degrees in business administration and accounting from PTC and puts all her skills and talents to work in her design studio and coffee shop — Wildlife in a Mug — a business she owns and operates.
The Pine Art Gallery features works of original art created by established and/or emerging artists from the Pine Area, embracing the talent and creativity of Pine Technical College students and the larger Pine community. The exhibit changes seasonally, and many kinds of artworks are showcased, including paintings, photography, pottery, sculptures, sketches, wood carvings and more. If you are an artist from the Pine Area and wish to exhibit your works in the Pine Art Gallery, see the Pine Technical College Marketing Director in Student Affairs.
