Starlight Art Gallery is the fusion of two Belleville, Illinois artists, Marjorie Jones and Maggie Bacon. Their online art gallery exhibits contemporary oil paintings, pastel paintings, and artistic beaded jewelry. The artist's shared love of fine art and creativity are expressed in each of the original and unique artworks of Starlight Art Gallery.
Marjorie Jones creates contemporary original oil paintings and pastel paintings with expressive emotional details and brilliant colors. Her fine art landscapes capture the beauty of the Midwest countryside and rich farmlands surrounding Belleville. Marjorie's floral oil paintings and pastel paintings portray the bounty of the flower garden featuring tulips, irises, roses, black eyed susans, and more. Marjorie expresses her love of design through the careful arrangement of objects in her still life oil paintings and pastel paintings. Her original still life artworks are intensely personal with symbolic elements portraying emotional content. Marjorie's landscapes, florals, and still life oil paintings and pastels are appreciated in both corporate and private collections.
Maggie Bacon specializes in making hand beaded jewelry. She designs her creations from a variety of gemstones, glass beads, porcelain beads, and metal beads and findings making for a broad range of styles from elegant to whimsical. Sometimes she finds beaded necklaces, beaded bracelets, and beaded earrings at flea markets and garage sales, takes them apart, and reuses the beads. Seldom does she replenish supplies of a particular bead, the exceptions being Swarovski crystals, gemstone chips and metal beads and findings. All of Maggie's handcrafted artistic beaded jewelry is original and unique.
Marjorie and Maggie create art only when their physical and emotional energy levels are at optimum levels. Both artists believe that with each piece they create a bit of the soul is infused into the artwork. The artists want only the most positive of energy flowing into their contemporary art originals. As a result, when you choose artwork from Starlight Art Gallery you will feel only the amazing love and care that Marjorie and Maggie breathe into their unique creations.
