A diverse line-up of artists were juried into the LowerTown Arts & Music Festival happening this Friday and Saturday in Paducah, when North Seventh and Sixth streets between Harrison and Monroe are listed with artist tents, food vendors, two performance stages and more. On Sounds Good, Kate Lochte meets LowerTown resident artist and batik painter David Lucht of Cowango Studios, which he and his wife Stephanie Graves say is where they make "Art with Impact."
David Lucht creates his artwork in a wax resist process known as Batik. This style, popular in Indonesia, is generally made on cloth using wax and dye to create layers that culminates in a finished piece. Lucht traveled to Southeast Asia after graduating college where he became inspired by the technique and brings to the medium a detailed, realistic approach through his experience with photography.
