Local Focal Point: Northern Twisted Art (7 photos)

In an effort to encourage Sault consumers to support the area's increasing and creative arts scene, SooToday.com hopes our readers will consider shopping local this holiday season.

From now until Christmas, we will be showcasing the work of local artists and craftspeople with this new weekly feature.

This week's feature highlight's the work of Jean and Alex Lemay, and Northern Twisted Art.

*****************************
Jean and Alex Lemay are the creators of Northern Twisted Art, one of a kind wire and stone art and sculptures.

By utilizing their love for rock and mineral collecting, the Lemays design twisted trees, birthstone and family trees, awareness trees, and suncatchers, as well as custom trees for weddings, anniversaries, graduations.

No glues, adhesives or chemical polishes are used by Northern Twisted Art.

Their work is currently on display and available at Tammy Deans Psychic Readings and Gift Shop (121 Elgin St.) and The Totem Pole (1340 Great Northern Rd.).

Northern Twisted Art will also be part of the Sugar Plum Craft Show at the Croatian Hall on Sunday, November 18.

Feel free to contact Jean and Alex Lemay by phone at  705-575-4974, via email at [email protected], or visit their Facebook page.
