Thanks to Donnalynn for collaborating with me.
Here is a statement she wrote about our collaborating.
An Arm and A Leg & More
donnalynn chase & Ling-Yen Jones
How can a jeweler collaborate with a collage artist?
How can a collage artist collaborate with a jeweler?
Those were the questions Ling-Yen and donnalynn asked themselves. Eventually we admitted to each other that we would like to create something out of body parts. Working with those odd elements was something we always wanted to do. So then, we did what we normally do in our creative work, we gathered materials and began. Ling-Yen made her jewelry and donnalynn hunted through her large collection of “more” and chose items that complements an arm and a leg. We met a few times to review our work and findings.
Of course, Ling-Yen created her work from semi-precious stones, pearls, silver – and clay doll arms. All the items we made and found were then assembled by donnalynn into an old artist’s box. Our collaboration basically became a 3D collage with jewelry. The pendant that Ling-Yen made with a miniature collage by donnalynn is truly a pure collaboration. The jewelry pieces can be purchased separately, as well as the assemblage from the artists after the exhibit.

Step into the Wonder

Now a Northern California holiday tradition, this three-day bazaar at Sacramento’s Scottish Rite Center delights art lovers of all ages. As children enjoy photos with Santa and face-painting by the Moonrise Pixies and Elves, adults can meet and speak with artists, browse booths filled with juried works in glass, textiles, wood, ceramics, paper, photography, art jewelry, paintings and sculptures, all offered in a variety of price points.

Proceeds from the event support artists, Crocker Art Museum’s exhibition and educational programs, and Creatives Arts League of Sacramento’s outreach to Mustard Seed School, Stanford Settlement, Sojourner Truth (SoJo), Women’s Wisdom Art, low-cost art tours, and other important community programs.

We wish to thank you for your patronage and best wishes for a delightful and warm holiday season!
Just a bit more information about where the money that the Creative Arts League receives goes.

We thought you would like to know where the funds go and the great things the show makes possible. The show is one of the Crocker’s 4 annual fundraisers and underwrites exhibitions and supports their educational programs throughout the year.
The Creative Arts League sponsors exhibitions regionally, and has funded two endowments at the Crocker. In 2017, we donated $125,000 to the Crocker Art Museum 2017 Retrospective on Ruth Rippon, a well-known Sacramento ceramicist. In 2024, we sponsored the 3rd By Hand Exhibit, an international biennial show, at the Blue Line Gallery in Roseville. This year we awarded grants to Stanford Settlement, Rancho Cordova Arts and SoJourner Truth African Heritage Museum and Mustard Seed School to further their arts programs.

Artist Statement:
Focusing on renewable materials and recycling, my practice is centered around The Environment and Sea.
This body of work speaks about the history of this area (Mendocino) and the maritime characters and or animals that make it uniquely positioned on the US West Coast.
Having spent near most of the last 30 years in some of the world’s most rugged Maritime and Alpine environments, my work promoted endangered species protection. As I was working remotely operationally with expedition vessels and helicopters (sub Antarctica), I witnessed first hand the effects of global warming.
My process involves educating those lesser privileged about the impacts of our footprint by telling narratives that are local and global with an emphasis on nature, community and femininity.
Training & Education:
Ocean Engineering FAU, woods hole, MIT. 30 years operational, outdoors education, not for profits and facilitating operations in World Heritage Parks. Presently working with museums globally to improve public policies, procedures and bettering funding tiers to vocalize lesser privileged narratives to become heard through Art and information technology.

If you are a car enthusiast and love the nostalgia of old cars, the sound, the art of hot rods, customs, and modifieds, looking at original cars you lusted after in your youth, and/or rare and unusual contemporary automobiles, you’ll love the Gualala Arts Auto Show. Located on the beautifully landscaped grounds of the Gualala Arts Center, this is a car show you can actually stroll through, talk to the owners, and appreciate each car, truck or motorcycle for the piece of art it is.
The Gualala Arts Fine Arts Fair grew out of the Summer Saturday Art Festivals held in downtown Gualala. Based on numerous requests from patrons and artists alike, it was decided to transform Summer Saturday Art Festivals and move it from the windy coast to our shelter area under the redwoods. The Fine Arts Fair started being held at the Arts Center in starting in 2008 on Memorial Day weekend.
n 2024 we are thrilled to announce we have decided to move this Arts & Crafts fair to join the ever-popular Gualala Arts Auto show on the 3rd weekend in July. We are expecting to have artists offering photography, ceramics, jewelry, paintings, and clothing.
Our creative artists will offer their wares for sale in the Coleman Hall and under the redwoods.
Live music, local wineries, and lovingly homemade food will round out the offerings to make this a party not to be missed!
We hope you will come to enjoy this new tradition of celebrating “Wheels, Wine and Wares!”

THE POINT ARENA-STORNETTA LANDS AND BEYOND A landscape photography Scott Chieffo & handmade jewelry by Ling-Yen Jones
2024-05-03 08:00 - 2024-09-02 17:00 | 45500 Lighthouse Road Point Arena, CA 95468, 45500 Lighthouse Road, Point Arena, CA, 95468, United States
THE POINT ARENA-STORNETTA LANDS AND BEYOND A landscape photography exhibit by Scott Chieffo In the approximately 20 years that he has been living on the Southern Mendocino County Coast, Scott has developed an intimate photographic relationship with its unique landscape. His images capture the subtle beauty of the coast and forests with a highly unique, “painterly” style that emphasizes the quiet solitude of these landscapes.
The focus for this exhibit will be some of Scott’s favorite images captured on The Point ArenaStornetta Lands over the past several years. The dramatic coastal bluffs, sea arches, and incredible views found here offer seemingly unlimited photo opportunities for both serious and casual photographers alike. The omnipresent Point Arena Lighthouse as a backdrop only adds to the magic of this extraordinary landscape. In addition, Scott will be showing a small collection of images taken in other locations along the varied and beautiful coastline of Mendocino County, from Bowling Ball Beach north to Mendocino. While the vast majority of his artistry takes place in the field, Scott’s technical mastery in the “digital darkroom” allows him to optimize each image digitally so that the finished print matches his original artistic vision. Unlike traditional printing methods, the metal prints Scott is showing for this exhibit are created by infusing dyes directly into a specially-coated sheet of aluminum. This technique creates a vibrant and durable print that is resistant to fading, moisture, and fingerprints.
For the past several years, Scott has shown his fine art photography prints at galleries and exhibits along the west coast.His work is represented in private collections throughout the United States and beyond. Some of his earliest images taken on the Point Arena-Stornetta Lands were used in the public relations effort to eventually have these lands added as the first mainland-based unit of the California Coastal National Monument in 2014.
Ling-Yen Jones will be showing and sharing her handmade jewelry works. It is inspired by the ocean and nature.
On the opening which is May 11th. Scott will be at the opening from 5-6 pm.
The Bureau of Land Management, Point Arena Lighthouse, Friends of Point Arena-Stornetta Lands, City of Point Arena, California Native Plant Society and Mendocino College are presenting “Celebrate the Coast” on Saturday, May 11 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. This free to the public event will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Lands being named as part of the California Coastal National Monument.

Love, Death, Transformation and Consciousness Madeline Kibbe & Ling-Yen Jones
Opens April 6th, 1-3 pm
Exhibit up through April 28, 2024
The dolphin Gallery in Seacliff center in Downtown Gualala.
The Dolphin Gallery in downtown Gualala will open a new exhibit on Saturday, April 6th from 1-3 p.m. featuring the works of Ling-Yen Jones, and Madeline Kibbe, the exhibition title “Love, Death, Transformation and Consciousness,” will showcase sculptures and jewelry inspired by universal themes and personal expressions.
Kibbe makes sculptures with found objects and materials that have symbolic meanings. She uses text and symbols to start a conversation about love. death, transformation, and consciousness. She says she is influenced by the works of Montien Boonma and Noah Purifoy, two artists who used recycled materials and cultural references in their art.
Jones creates rings, necklaces, and earrings that draw inspiration from the rich history of circular adornments. She cites Dana Scarisbrick’s book “Rings: Symbols of Wealth, Power and Affection” as a source of information about the role of rings in different cultures and times. She says rings can signify both faith and mortality, as well as mutual fidelity and love.
However, Jones’ approach to crafting rings is rooted in simplicity and joy. She says she finds inspiration in whimsy and playfulness, incorporating elements such as faces, windows, and cranes in her designs. She aims to capture the essence of joy and individuality in each piece.
The exhibit will run through May 5th at the Dolphin Gallery, located in the Seacliff Center. The gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

Don’t agree with the judges? You aren’t alone! The famous Salon des Refusés in Paris in 1863 was a reaction to the hundreds of master works that did not make it into the formal Salon. All works will be displayed, and those not chosen for the Salon (in the Burnett Gallery) will be placed in the Elaine Jacob Foyer of the Gualala Arts Center, and are eligible for People’s Choice Awards ($125 for first place, $100 for second place, and $75 for third place.) Other $100 awards this year will be an Emerging Artist Award for best work by an artist under age 18; Collage Group Award for best collage; a Humor Award for best humorous content; and the Founders Award by our esteemed founders of the show: Doric Jemison-Ball, Bruce Jones, and Sharon Nickodem.
Opening reception will be from 4-6 pm on February 9 and will be catered by the fabulous Black Oak Catering. Dust off your fancy clothes (if you still have them) for this premier event!
