Artist and interior designer, Stephanie Poulsen shared, “Being accepted into the Salon des Refusés - Emerging Artist Exhibition is a dream come true! I am truly honored to be part of this inaugural event and to be selected to share some of my work.”

“This is an incredible opportunity that our community worked to create as a leading art exhibit and will highlight so many talented artists and their exemplary work.” 

The Central California Art Association (CCAA) at Mistlin Gallery’s Salon des Refusés - Emerging Artist Exhibition will open on June 13th through Saturday, July 15.

CCAA & Mistlin Gallery commented, “Our Salon des Refusés - Emerging Artist Exhibition event will be a wonderful opportunity to connect with fellow artists, art enthusiasts, and celebrate the artists on display.”

“We encourage the community, friends, and families to join us at our inaugural event and to witness these incredible artists’ exquisite work.”

This Emerging Artist Show will feature new and emerging artists including all mediums: painting, sculpture, photography, and more, with the goal to serve as a platform for artists to showcase their unique perspectives with an open-ended theme that encourages creativity and originality. 

Stephanie further shared how excited she is to be “returning to her roots” as her fine art is featured within the permanent collection at her alma mater, Chico State. She also credits her co-worker Wendy Glaister for their team-building art classes, which is part of their firm’s professional development activities, and was where she found her own “artistic style.” 

Several of Stephanie’s fine art pieces were created during these monthly art classes and will be featured during the Salon’s inaugural emerging artist exhibition.

Wendy Glaister, owner and principal, of Wendy Glaister Interiors shared, “Stephanie is such a blessing to work alongside every day, and I am so excited that she is being recognized in our industry for the beautiful work she's putting out into the world: both as a professional interior designer and as a fine artist. Two years of working together is coming up on July 1, and time has whizzed by. Makes the statement "time flies when you're having fun" so true!”

Wendy Glaister Interiors was recently awarded Best of Houzz, Best Bathroom, and features a stunning update to a local couple's ranch-style Manteca home. Their firm shared that Wendy Glaister and Stephanie Poulsen, and builder Dean Adkins were hired to reimagine the layout and relocate a closet to enlarge the master bathroom.

The result is a modern and stylish update to their 1980s home that features timeless blue & white hues with classic chrome finishes, while the remodel focused on implementing innovative aging-in-place design techniques.
