Steppin' Out
I am inspired when an ordinary scene or object is somehow transformed into something glorious and wonderful. Maybe it's a striking combination of colors or textures, or a compelling pattern of contrasts. It could be the relationship of a person to nature. Most often it's the effect of sunlight, deepening a color here, making an edge disappear there, that motivates me to paint.

And our best way of making sure it gets the care it so richly deserves is this: To put our representations of it on display for all the world to see. Our hope is that our paintings will encourage others to become stewards of the land, just as we have become its promoters."

Nature is fascinating in so many ways: evolution, adaptation, and change are intricate parts of an ever-changing world. I am interested in transformation in nature, moments of deep cataclysmic shifts, moments of superb energy release. I am interested in the very special instants when a balance is broken or shifted, an existing equilibrium is changed and transformation occurs. More and more, humans are influencing some shifts in nature.

Fran Forman
Hovering Child
With a background in psychology, design, and photography, I make photographic images combining portraiture with dreamed landscapes and the natural world. As my work creates juxtapositions in time, it also re-imagines relationships of scale and physical possibility. My images create an inclusiveness that is wistful yet ironic. Children and adults, anonymous and forgotten, appear as honored guests. Although my images violate the laws of physics, they honor the interdependence and connections of humanity with the animals, insects, and plants, which populate the natural world.

I am a multi-media visual artist. The subject matter of my abstracted images are the human figure and prairie landscape. How one experiences objects in space and over a period of time is a consistent theme in this innovative work. A unique fragmentation of shapes and lines results from a process of layering, distortion and abstraction of paint, charcoal and textiles. The dynamic works are defined by the media and the energetic mark-making.

"There is a dialogue between myself and the materials I choose to use: what they will and will not do; how the material will change and become something different than its original form.

I have always been interested in other cultures and other times both real and imagined and that becomes a large part of the story telling in my work."

Sandra Kaplan
Winds
Painting is my way of understanding the natural world and the human made world, of sharpening my focus. On one day, Science may take precedence, on another, visual reality. On occasion, metaphor becomes prime, at other times a fascination with patterning or the interaction between humans and nature directs my work. Occasionally the seduction of the paint is irresistible, or I fall under the spell of color sequence.

Textiles represent an alternative history and practice. The physical nature of the stitched mark reminds the viewer of a kind of activity and maker marginalized in traditional art histories.

My creative process is intuitive – starting with materials and/or marks that I make – with no preconceived plan. I like putting things together – sometimes pieces that seem not to go together. My work encompasses a variety of mediums – oil, acrylic, water, prints, found papers and objects, image transfer and encaustic. In each artwork there may be one medium, two or many media combined in one piece. Inspiration comes from the inside – based on my personal distillation of the external world.

Each pot is a one-of-a-kind hand crafted work of art.

Dan Fogelberg
Three Pots
“I have always been drawn to ways of working that have allowed for discovery, surprise, failure and redemption. I find my images in the layers of paint, discover the form as my hands touch the clay, surrender to the vagaries of the fire. Each work comes to me, not as an answer, but as another question. The longer I make art, the more I realize it’s not about mastery or control. What remains is an ongoing dialog between the artist and his art. One must listen as well as speak.”

The Ring of Fire
I don't know when the urge to create began. It has always been there from earliest memory. It started with painting and drawing, but once I discovered sculpture and particularly clay, over twenty years ago, I was totally obsessed. There is a prose poem by Byrd Baylor that states, "Clay remembers the hands that made it." I love the fact that you connect directly with the clay with your fingers and it responds like a living thing. Although many images inspire me and I sculpt a variety of subjects, the image of the horse and women's stories are my passion.

XXO
Of Cronin's work, New York art critic John Mendelsohn writes: "Cronin's figures are animated by a fluid energy, the artist's light touch, that gives them a fleeting sense of movement. These animals and humans are acutely observed and deftly depicted, with an emphasis on bodily gestures. The humor which pervades Cronin's work arises from her clearly observing humankind's foibles and then reflecting them back to us with wit and affection." Indeed Cronin's work effuses a liveliness created through her talent for sculptural naturalism and her smart sense of humor.

PARADE II
One of the major problems Webb encountered in his quest for homosexual imagery was how to formulate a convincing figure type. His blend of ironic wit and heroic grandeur demanded a male figure that was vulnerably human yet still defined or marked by a powerful, driving sexuality. The challenge was to come up with a physiognomy that, as Webb puts it, “wasn’t like a Ken doll.” The solution lay in Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo’s Punchinello frescoes in Palazzo Rezzonico in Venice, which Webb first saw in 1989.
