ART EXPRESSION by AFFEE VICKERS
February 26 - May 2, 2020
Amazing, captivating, thrilling and simply “out-of-this-world” are some of the words people use to describe pieces from Affee’s Vicker’s amazing works of art. In an industry of artists who are educated through design school or use design applications and computers to hone their craft, Affee is self-taught. Affee’s long standing career in fabrication, construction and music are reflected in each note of these concept-to-reality designs. He began creating small works of art as a boy and built on that foundation in the 1970’s.
Affee Vickers’ ingenuity in the areas of glass, acrylic, stainless steel, titanium, abstract art, oil paintings, sculptures and the newly innovative “Blue Copper Series” and “Onyx Series” are uniquely created for those with a discerning eye and deep appreciation for artistic value.
