Dawn Kranz

Dawn Kranz discovered her talents with paint and clay at a young age, and has continued to study and practice these throughout her life.  In 1985 she relocated her Cabin Home Pottery business from Spring Valley Wisconsin to Leavenworth Washington and has been known as a potter in this valley to this day.  More recently, Dawn has discovered the joys of painting with pastels, thanks to instruction from renowned painters; Sheila Reiman, Diana Sanford, Teresa Saia, Jen Evenhus and Amanda Houston.  Dawn continues to practice the application of a thousand hues, values and intensities of color to show how the sky’s ever changing light can bring terrestrial forms to life, creating an almost nostalgic atmosphere with which she hopes to lure the viewer in.
