BETTE WOODLAND'S ARTIST STATEMENT - "From dawn until dusk, it’s the sky that defines the mood and character of the prairie landscape. Each particular moment is described by the light and its transformative effects on what we see. These recent paintings also include portraits of the sentient domestic animals who have traditionally shared the rural community."
ANN-MARIE BROWN'S ARTIST STATEMENT - Ann-Marie Brown’s lush, layered oil and encaustic paintings are an invitation to linger."
