Reception to meet the artists will be Sunday, December 2, 9 - 11 am.
 Robyn Lindsey
​My work has evolved through the years, and I expect it will continue to do just that. What I have noticed is that my work has become not a reflection of how I feel about things in the world, but rather what I’d like to encourage. For instance, if I feel angst, I’d like to paint hope, because that is what I’d like to move myself and others towards.

My work shows the beauty in solitude, the hope that springs forth after regret, the acceptance that eases in after angst.

I am constantly learning and trying new techniques, always looking for new ways to express my creativity and spread a little bit of support in an otherwise conflicting world.
Kate Ampersand
​Kate appreciates that the art of photography forces her to slow down and really see the world around her. Her eye is drawn to patterns and textures, shapes and colors and most especially reflections--whether or existing in nature or man-made.

Using her cameras as her artistic tools, she strives to make images that are simultaneously beautiful and mysterious, creating a visual connection between the viewer and the world as Kate experiences it.

​Her images have been featured in juried exhibits and galleries throughout Oregon, Washington and British Columbia(including over a dozen solo shows), and have been recognized with multiple awards.
