Nature Noticed and Also Ignored – Rachael Amos
I had declared to myself that Nature would be my topic, especially thoughts and images brought to mind by reading “The Forest Unseen,” by David George Haskell. But I found that I wouldn’t keep to my declaration, and that I ignored or subverted Nature as often as I focused on it.

The drawings for the most part began as improvisations; some are quite extensively developed further; others left pretty much as they occurred to me in the first moments.

MortalitybySusanSmolinki

Lucretia – Susan Smolinski
These paintings explore themes of mortality, sexual exploitation, and gender in ways that present both beauty and horror.
