Marge Fleming is a nationally known clay sculpture/mosaic artist offering Claytherapy, as well as fun pottery classes. She has earned a Masters in Adult Ed (MU) and a second Masters in Community Counseling with a Specialty in Art Therapy (ESU). Most of her shown artworks are her own personal issues and perspectives that she expresses through Art Therapy using the clay medium and poetry. The more bizarre the art piece, the more psychological benefit, known as artistic sublimation. This is where the artist channels energy--positive, negative, or sexual, into a more sociably acceptable form. Once Marge's students see her "stuff" it's no holds barred in their own art. Claytherapy is a word that Marge coined to emphasize the cathartic process.
Most of Marge's art comes from her dreams. Sometimes the poems come first and sometimes the artwork comes first. Often the poetry and art support each other and do not necessarily make sense separately, although not always. The healing is in the process - it can be in the artwork, in the poetry, or in both.
In addition, Marge makes fun hand carved beads, wearable art, novelties, and unique pottery.
