Chris A. Owens
Chris began working in polymer in 2007. Her signature items are artisan veneered canteens and mini-kaleidoscopes. Each year a portion of her work supports women’s organizations and other not-for-profit community groups. CAB’z is the artist signature for RetroVenue Studio. The “Bz” and whimsical bees tucked into her work honor the Polish branch of her family and English translation of her maiden name, “Beekeeper.” Chris is on a mixed media journey that injects art into function and incorporates vintage and historical elements.
You can find her work at Edenside Gallery and in her studio.
RetroVenue Studio Location: Art Sanctuary – 1433 S. Shelby Street, Louisville KY.
