ATHONISEN SCULPTOR: George and Ellen Stories

A Visit with the 2021 Phillips' Mill Honored Artist: ArtTalk with George Anthonisen

“The Phillip’s Mill Art Committee is proud to name George our 2021 Honored Artist. His work will be featured in our 92nd Juried Art Show, as it has many times in the past. We’re also proud to have him as our guest on Art Talk. His work mixes the traditional with the modern in both its aesthetic and its subject matter. George approaches his subject with a refined eye and the tenderness of a humanist. Any conversation with him is a pleasure. We’re happy to be able to share this opportunity with the Phillips’ Mill Community.”
