Buds of May - Artist Profile: Fran Zerr


Fran Zerr has been interested in art since she was a small child.  Her mother always encouraged her.  She painted and sculpted whenever she could.  Now that she can pursue her art full time, she is busy painting and sculpting large masks and has even found time to start a jewellery collection of small porcelain cameos.  They are called “Be Your Authentic Self”. 

There are over 15 designs in this collection so far.  An original piece is sculpted in clay or other materials, and then cast in a mould.  From there Fran pours in the finest porcelain and paints each one a little differently to make each unique.  Once the piece is fired, Fran adds sterling silver earrings and Swarovski crystals. 



Each piece has a name.  Once you hold one, you will see how wonderful they feel, like a smooth  stone.  They are available at Traditions or from Fran, call 306-789-5321 visit her website for a glimpse, www.franzerrartist.com or email info@franzerrartist.com. for more info.
