Zana Clark is an award winning
multimedia artist specializing in a line of unique art stamps,
all original designs. She has displayed her batiks, paper weavings,
watercolors and stamp art creations in numerous galleries and
gift stores in the Midwest, as well as having participated in
hundreds of juried art fairs and rubber stamp conventions throughout
the country.
Stamping throughout her artistic
phases, she experimented by combining stamped images with a variety
of art mediums. She decided to turn her Art Nouveau and Art Deco
design oriented imagery into a unique, original line of elegant
art rubber stamps. In June of 1996, after 22 years as an art
educator and school administrator, she took the plunge into the
business world full time to set up her rubber art stamp company,
Stamp Zia.

The Stamp Zia collection is made up of all original images that
can be used together to create larger and more complex stamped
designs. Fan shaped stamps are filled with floral and wildlife
motifs. Stamps of intricate foliage borders and arches compliment
and fit around both the Zia spheres and fans. Unique stamp corner
sets hold her Zia fan shaped images to showcase their
Oriental flair. Her original stamp designs and teaching techniques
have encouraged stamp artists across the country to go "Beyond
Cards". Her unique approach to creating stamp art will get
you to view stamping as an art form.
Zana has been featured on HGTV's
Decorating with Style and has been published in numerous stamping
magazines including Rubberstampmadness, The Rubber Stamper, Stamping
Arts and Crafts, and Vamp Stamp News. Her stamp images and teaching
techniques have also been featured in Stamp Art by Sharilynn
Miller, Design Originals by Suzanne McNeil, Suze Weinberg 's
The Art of Rubber Stamping and The Rubber Stamper's 1999 calendar.
She also teaches at various retreats/conventions including Art

some of the best stamp, arts, and paper stores across the country
and offers retreats at her studio throughout the year.
