Cliff Wilton: November
"Even in my figurative and other representational work, I am primarily concerned with the qualities of the paint itself, with color, composition and texture rather than consciously imbuing the subjects with individual qualities and specific meanings."

Randall Tipton: August
Randall Tipton is the poster artist for the Taste of Ashland.
"My solution to just about anything and everything is to go outside. Since I was a kid, I've just wanted to sit on the porch, lie in the grass, or walk in the woods and look at what's before me. I'm obsessed with landscapes."
-
Ken Grant: July
Ken Grant's fascination with craftsman type architecture, simple chairs, and objects provide subject matter for the quiet drama he creates with the play of light and shadow on canvas. He often includes a “surreal” sea outside a window or door to stimulate the viewers imagination. His paintings expand the space where they hang suggesting an additional room.
-
Warren Straus: June
Warren Straus creates wonderful, wacky, sculptured furniture, sometimes functional, sometimes not. His keen sense of humor and zest for life combine with extraordinary technical and design skills to produce art which is not for the faint of heart.
-
Marie Maretska: May
Planished and formed metal fused with glass (vitreous enamel). Small wells in the copper, created by blows from a hammer, hold pools of colored glass. The interplay of glass and polished copper creates an intense light refraction resembling water in sunlight.
-
Candace Miller and Virginia Andrade: April
Virginia Andrade's current body of work is titled "It's not Easy Being Green", a comment on the growing concern for our environment. Her paintings emerge from studies of nature and it's changing forms.
Candace Miller creates whimsical characters by assembling burls, found objects and handmade clay parts.
