 About the Artist Maryann Hamel is a local artist whose work features a southwest design that is usually expressed through copper, brass and semi-precious stones. Maryann works from her studio in Scottsdale, Arizona, where she creates a variety of functional and decorative items: blown-glass vase holders, wind chimes, holiday ornaments, spinning wind sculptures and decorative bookmarks. Maryann exhibits at art shows throughout the southwest, and her work has been used for fundraising events by Brandeis University, the John C. Lincoln Memorial Hospital, the Phoenix Art Museum League and other organizations. Maryann's work has become increasingly popular with residents of the southwest, and with visitors who like to bring home souvenirs and gifts.

 It's been gratifying to hear back from so many of our customers about our art work. Here are just a few of the comments we've received: "I've now given your Christmas ornaments to family for the third year in a row, and each time they have been very well received. Looks like I've started a tradition!" -- Pauline O. "My daughter was delighted with the wind chime I gave her! It's the perfect item for her backyard porch." -- Christine T. "Your pieces are unlike anything I've seen before. We decorate with a Southwest style, and your items are now the highlight of our home." -- Vicki R. "As a man who has had some experience working with metals, I can appreciate your workmanship and attention to detail. My wife was very pleased with the wind chime I purchased." -- Ron G. "The angel ornament I bought for my aunt made an old lady very happy. Just thought you'd like to know. See you again when you come to Tucson..." -- Donna A. "The face mirror is adorable! The minute I saw it I just had to have it. Enjoyed seeing you again at the Carefree show." -- Sarah P. "This one's freakin' awesome!!" -- young female shopper, looking at a glass ball chime "Already I'm bored." -- unknown husband |
