Artists Featured in October
Susan Bourdet
WATERCOLOR
Including the above piece, ‘Ghost of the Tundra,’ Susan will show all new work in October. Susan believes a painting has to have enough interesting information to tell a convincing and captivating tale. Her goal is to make paintings that aren’t just portraits of bird and animal subjects, but go a little further, offering the viewer an insight into that creature’s life, a window into a wilder world.
Dennis Johanson
CERAMICS
Dennis enjoys throwing, glazing and firing a wide variety of clay bodies in his studio. He will feature Halloween ghosts and pumpkins in October.
