SUMMARY:Katherine Kepner - Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:13 WALLS- Katherine Kepner’s “Remembrance” is a curated selection of atmospheric watercolor studies. \nI’ve been painting with watercolors since 2021 after giving up etch-a sketch and crocheting hats\, (there is a story for another time.) I hardly did anything else with my time due to covid restrictions except practice my new found pastime of painting. By the time we were able to gather again\, I joined a local art group and to my absolute surprise I won BEST in SHOW for a large painting of a marsh at the group’s spring show. It was such an encouraging experience that I continue my learning and painting and showing my work to this day.This exhibit of my landscape paintings is a portrayal of places; places that are know and nearby\, places that are memories and places that are only imagined. This work is less about documenting a particular moment in a place but the feeling that being in that place evokes for me and hopefully the viewer.

SUMMARY:The Art of Steven Swank
DESCRIPTION:Patterson Show 2026 Artist Statement \nThe Art of Steven Swank \nMy Life\, My Art – –The joy of aspiration\, the humility of limit.The creative imperatives that necessitate new insight and growth\, a novel path through or around the challenge of evolution in a particulate art piece or form delights and invigorates my whole being. \nThe Twigsticks are 3 dimensional line drawings which cast a second image on the wall in 2 dimensions. They are recent adventures in space. Photo collage has a long history in my studio as I focus on eye movement and composition. More whimsical are the small environments composed of found objects. Some paintings are new for this show. I also present poetry as metaphor\, which is a constant companion in my life.

SUMMARY:Joseph Grice - Reverence
DESCRIPTION:“My bird paintings are a tether between the natural world\, and human emotion. Each piece represents a moment in time along the plot of a story both untold\, and well known. Determinism\, bravery\, wisdom\, strength\, beauty\, and joy are among the traits portrayed in these anthropomorphic characters. They are reflections of ourselves\, displaying traits and lessons that we can admire and live up to. They represent a reminder that clarity can come from the smallest of moments\, and that we are all connected to nature in an ancient way. These bird portraits explore what it means to be truly human\, through the lens of ornithological illustrations.”
