Bottles on Windowsill, 2006 Asphaltum and Latex paint on paper 15” x 23”	Krista Anderson April 16 - April 20, 2007. Presentation: Tuesday, April 17, 11 a.m. I enjoy the exploration of conventional techniques as well as invented ones.  I am easily seduced by the reactive nature of mediums and surfaces.  I tend to use one image at a time and manipulate it through experimentation with different processes. I am drawn to objects because of their formal qualities, which usually contain organic shapes and colors.
	Ashley Hauk April 23 - April 27, 2007 Presentation: Tuesday, April 24, 11 a.m Wife/Mother/Artist I’ve spent the last four years exploring and at times struggling with my roles in life. Because I can’t separate the facets of myself I find that I take on “the domestic” in my paintings.  I do this through use of domestic pattern, repetition of form, and injecting the figure into various surfaces.
Flamingos Oil & Rice paper on canvas 18" x 24"	Lindsey Heiden April 30 - May 4, 2007 Presentation: Tuesday, May 1, 11 a.m The premise of my work goes beyond just visual. I do this by using found objects, painting them and putting them together. The pieces of work and the subject matter is put together in a playful and quirky way. This allows the viewer to touch the work making is more then just a visual experience.
