Rim Country a magnet for artists

The Rim Country is a magnet for many, all with a vast array of reasons for wanting to make this place their home. So, it is no surprise it has drawn an untold number of artists into its embrace of scrub oak, ponderosa pines, free flowing creeks, deep mysterious canyons and seemingly unending vistas.
More than 20 of those artists, members of the Payson Art League, will invite residents and visitors into their studios during the annual ’Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour May 4, 5 and 6.
Jan Ransom, a longtime member of PAL, is organizing the 2012 event.
Over the next several weeks, The Rim Review will introduce readers to the artists participating in the event.
This edition has profiles on Sue Jones, Mary Lavan, Georgianne Smolenski, Jim Strong and Forrest Wellington.

More than 30 years ago Sue Jones was introduced to china painting and found her niche. Her work can be seen locally at Granny’s Attic Antiques and at her home studio in Payson.
Sue Jones
Born with a brush in her hand, Sue Jones began drawing and painting at an early age, mostly in oils.
More than 30 years ago she was introduced to china painting and found her niche. She loves it because many pieces are functional as well as decorative.
Although drawn to a Victorian style, her subject matter is endless. She has taught classes and seminars many years, and matched more than 200 shades for antique lamps.
Sue’s work has been shipped throughout the world and can be seen locally at Granny’s Attic Antiques and at her home studio in Payson.
Publications that have featured her work include International Porcelain Art Teachers, Inc. and The China Decorator magazines.

Mary “Mare” Lavan’s functional stoneware pottery is rooted in nature with a modern flair.
Mary Lavan
Mary “Mare” Lavan is a studio potter living and creating in the mountain hamlet of Pine, Ariz.
Her functional stoneware pottery is rooted in nature with a modern flair.
With a wide-ranging style, Mare often incorporates natural elements in her hand-thrown pieces.
Integrating computer-altered images in her signature work she bridges her high-tech background with her art.
Mare also has an extensive collection of antique textile blocks that she often uses to add texture to her pieces.
Mare’s work will be available during the Payson Art League ’Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour. Just Mare Pottery can also be found online at JustMare.Etsy.com and in galleries.

Georgianne Smolenski’s fantastic creations of weavings can be seen at the Payson Art League studio tour on May 4, 5, 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Georgianne Smolenski
What do dog hair, llama, soy and bamboo have in common? They are all woven into fabric ... nothing ordinary in the tool kit for hand woven wearable art expert Georgianne Smolenski.
Bamboo is an extremely fast growing and renewable resource and provides plenty of food for the Panda, wherever he might be living, either in China or surprisingly, Bisbee, Ariz., where bamboo grows prolifically.
Hemp is legal! Yes, it is — as far as manufacturing yarn. Magnetic Material
Weaving has come full circle — from the earliest woven baskets to clothing made of “cloth” woven from whatever grows in a field or along a creek.
Everyone wants to “go green” and weavers like Georgianne have been doing it forever.
Georgianne’s fantastic creations of weavings can be seen at the Payson Art League studio tour on May 4, 5, 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Watch for the upcoming details and tour guide.

Jim Strong’s talent and interest in his subjects show through in his oil paintings of ranchers, Western scenery, Native Americans and European street scenes.
Jim Strong
Jim Strong was raised in Grand Junction, Colo. Ever since he was a young boy, Jim has had a love of art, Native American Indians and the West.
His talent and interest in his subjects show through in his oil paintings of ranchers, Western scenery, Native Americans and European street scenes.
Jim graduated from the prestigious Art Center School in Los Angeles, Calif. in 1961, with a Bachelor’s of Professional Arts degree in illustration.
After graduation, Jim worked for North American Aviation — Autonetics in Placentia, Calif. as an illustrator.
After moving to Arizona, he worked for Brush & Color in Paradise Valley doing architectural renderings for Ramada Inns.
He also created illustrations for Motorola, AiResearch, Sperry, Cudahy, Arizona Tourism, Spreckles Sugar and Courtesy Chevrolet. NdFeB Magnet
In early 1967, Jim worked as head instructor for the Scottsdale School of Art. After realizing that he enjoyed teaching, he founded the Jim Strong Art School, where he taught oil painting to hundreds of students for 33 years in Scottsdale.
In 1999, Jim retired and sold the school. Now that Jim is retired he has more time to create his own Western oil paintings.
Jim is currently working for the Gila Community College in Payson as a part-time faculty member teaching oil painting.
A member of the Payson Art League, he displays his work at the studio tour in May and the fall show in November.
His work can currently be viewed at his studio and home on Gibson Ranch, Payson, Ariz. and online at Western Artist Jim Strong at www.youtube.com/ user/PaysonArtLeague or at www.wdranch-az.com.

Forrest Wellington incorporates a sense of humor along with keen observational skills and experience gained from more than 40 years as a veterinarian.

Superior quality and competitive price ,delivery in timeNingbo YiLi Magnetic has the following advantage:1.Good quality: in material area, we can control the products in low oxygen content, low density and good property coherence. In tooling process, we use advanced management mode.2.Competitive price: we have manufacture base for blanks and process. That can reduce trade link.3.Delivery in time:we will basis customer request shipment on time. 4.Supply magnetic assembly: we have room for fitting magnetic assembly, can basis customer request to produce these magnetic assembly.

NdFeB magnets:NdFeB magnets that appeared at the early of 1980 are recognized as the third generation rare earth permanent magnets and the magnetic force is the most powerful. It can be divided into Sintering NdFeB magnets and Bonded NdFeB magnets.It possesses high toughness,good ability of resisting corrosion and temperature.
NdFeB magnets Chemical composition: Chemical analysis for sintering NdFeB magnets material based on intermetallic compounds RE2Fe14B,main composition is NdFeB magnet is (RE), (Fe) (B),thereinto thulium (Nd), in order to obtain different performance can instead by thulium of (Dy),(Pr) etc. also other metal can instead Fe,for example (Co), (Al) etc., smaller content of boron, but it affect tetragonal crystal intermetallics, making the intermetallics with high magnetization,uniaxial anisotropy and curie temperature.NdFeB magnets Making process: NdFeB magnet use Powder Metallurgy Process, proportion of material such as: neodymium, dysprosium, iron, cobalt, niobium, praseodymium, aluminum, iron, and boron etc., through Mid-frequency Induction Furnace smelting to alloy steel ingot, then broken into power of 3~5um,and forming mold in magnetic field, the green bodies sintering dense and tempering in Vacuum Sintering Furnace, that can earn magnetic properties of blank of permanent magnet. After grinding, drilling, cutting and other processing, last via surface finish, it is good NdFeB magnet.

Alnico Magnets

Alnico MagnetAlnico magnet alloy is largely comprised of Aluminum, Nickel, Cobalt and Iron. Alnico is a moderately expensive magnet material because of the Cobalt and Nickel content. This alloy has very good corrosion resistance and a high maximum operating temperature. Some grades of this alloy can operate upwards of 550•C. Magnets made with this alloy are available in a variety of grades and dimensions and they are usually cast and finish ground to size. Alnico magnet material is a mature technology and it has a relatively low Energy Product (BHmax) . This material is now mainly used in military, aerospace, older proprietary designs and in applications where the magnet will be exposed to elevated temperaturesvMagnetic Property of Alnico
