Candace Shepard     Bitter Sweet

Kay Galvan     Entanglements

Entanglements is an installation of fiber art and drawings assembled to describe the idea of our ever-present situation. Whether an inner encounter with our ego, or outer enmeshment with other beings, our surroundings or the planet; entanglements describe our existence. We are a network of connections we have created.  Some seem to trap us while others suggest possibility – they all tell us something about ourselves.

In Memorium

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of one of our amazing artists, Tom Robertson.

Tom had recently rejoined us after a long hiatus. This is a tragic loss of a talented member, dear friend, and incredible artist. You will be deeply missed and fondly remembered for your kindness and camaraderie.

Katherine Johnson.    Free Falling

At this time of grief and turmoil, acceptance is my guide in opening to free-falling in my work.  I go wherever the process takes me, adding and subtracting, sometimes scrubbing off or following the direction of mistakes.  And moving through what doesn’t work can be an act of compassion.   I keep on until I sense that it may be a place to stop.  Whatever happens is a gift.

Sara-Lou Klein     small

Sara-Lou Klein used her last name as a jumping off point to create this small body of artwork (Klein means small in German). The common thread amongst them is that they were made mostly from salvaged pieces of wood from her father’s woodworking workshop. The media of colored pencils, acrylic paint, watercolor, ink, and collage material were used to experiment with a variety of whimsical images.

She is inviting the community to bring a box of tampons, pads, mini-pads, or other personal hygiene products, to the gallery, in exchange for a die-cut vinyl sticker (featuring her art). The collected items will be donated to The Action Center of Jefferson County – who assists those facing hardship and homelessness.

John Horner   New Tangents: Explorations of Bas relief and its Implications

The Idea of bas relief had long since been of interest to myself, inspired by the bas reliefs in the Louve and the British museum bas relief panels of Assyrian and Egyptian art  and strangely enough German and French expressionism. As a painter and print maker it is for me a small step from relief printing to bas relief, so this idea was never far in the background of the artist thinking, in this experimental series I am  directly is carving  into commercial  bass wood veneered panels, the  idea being to explore the possibilities of this technique, as bas relief and by extension as relief print and painting on the panels after that, this  series and can be seen in many ways as continuation of my previous exploration of the of the fauna of Colorado as seen in earlier series though in different mediums.

Eric Havelock-Bailie     Goodbye, Hello

By juxtaposing two bodies of work, one completed and one emerging, I’m hoping to describe visually the transition from one world to another, going from 15 years off the grid to a place I only knew vaguely which is now my home. A real city. Nothing more and hopefully nothing less. And the title is a play on a well-known song (to be continued)…

Opening Reception: Friday, October 4, 6-9 PM

Stephen Shugart     Time and Memory

In this series of abstract, geometric sculptures, Stephen Shugart reflects on the nature of and passage of time, from its theoretical and philosophical concepts to its intimate human counterpart, memory, whether actual or imagined, collective or individual.  Shugart continues to explore the “intermateriality” of the materials he uses to create his structures–investigating the interaction and relationship, or fusion between different materials as an artwork is created, discovering the way various materials such as common or exotic woods, metal fasteners, springs, fabric, wire, found objects and light come together to create meaning, texture and aesthetic form.

Travis Vermilye and Katie Caron: Collections

Inspired by the tangles of plant life and objects washed ashore along the coast of the Pacific Northwest and Donegal, Ireland, “Collections” explores the beauty found in unexpected places and the lasting imprint we leave on the world around us. Through a series of digitally crafted compositions, digital animations, and 3D printed sculptures, this exhibition invites viewers to contemplate the intricate beauty of coastal ecosystems and the unintended consequences of our presence.

Faith Williams   Goodbye, Grass!

Inspired by the process of removing her frontyard grass using the “cardboard composting” method, Faith Williams Dyrsten shares her mixed-media illustrations as observations on the phases of new growth, ongoing decay, and insect life. Her new work considers what can happen when we create more pollinator-friendly spaces in place of traditional turf.

Mark Brasuell    Markieren Markieren (Mark Making Marks)

Part of the Traumwelt (Dreamworld) series, Mark Brasuell’s new paintings explore the unknown and the subconscious. The theory is abstraction comes from somewhere. Some people think it could come from observation of objects, but the goal here is to tap into the unconscious and create things that either we have never seen before or that have been stored in memory. The bold black-and-white pieces are accentuated with pops of color, linear expressions, and calligraphic “words”. Using asemic language has always been a part of Brasuell’s work, and this exhibition expands on that idea in bold and complex forms. Don’t miss out on this important fall exhibition sure to be one of the highlights of the year.
