Dianne Campbell graduated from Penn Trafford High School and then went on
to Calvin College in Grand Rapids, MI where she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts.
Her work includes painting on reclaimed wood and more recently, making ceramic essential oil jewelry. Having fibromyalgia herself, and 3 out of 4 of her children having autoimmune disorders, has influenced Dianne to move into this new direction and medium. Essential oils have helped her and her family feel better, and get through times of pain and fatigue. She wants to help other people by incorporating her art with diffusing "on the go". The backs of
her ceramic pendants, bracelet center-pieces and even earrings
are all left porous to absorb essential oils and enable people to diffuse all throughout the day.
In most mediums, Dianne's style is repurposing "left behind" materials and making them beautiful once more, in a different way ~ a different light. Her interests lie within capturing the enchantment of trees, flowers, the moon and sun individually, or together in landscape form. Whether it's by painting on old wood or drawing into or pressing old vintage buttons/objects into clay, she desires to bring such things back to life...
with a little love.

created in the summer of 2018. Bridges can be seen as metaphors in our lives. The transformation that occurs throughout our lives can be seen in a bridge. The subject matter will vary in many of my works but you will always note the initial emotional reaction.
