Reaching Out Through Her Lens: Krissie VandeNoord
Krissie VandeNoord’s photography effectively makes its dual points, both visual and philosophical, without preaching … and with the goal of helping people on the other side of the world.
Revisiting, Reimagining: George Moeller
George Moeller has provided viewers with a new take on his subjects … and a way to reflect upon, perhaps even reimagine, the scenes we see around us every day.
Metal Memories: Robin Richerson
Robin Richerson’s bronze sculptures won’t turn up nature’s thermostat, but they do call to mind more clement climes and the possibilities that go along with them.
Vehicles for Transportation : Norma Herring
Norma Herring has a gift of not only depicting time and place, but also of recreating a sense of depth in her paintings.
Small Smiling Faces: Vickie Hover
Vickie Hover’s handmade dolls, clad in hand-felted garb, are full of personality, life and good humor. They also carry a sense of the perseverance it took to produce them.

Through the Brush of a Child: Marissa Hitt
Marissa Hitt’s adoptive parents have encouraged her, but never pushed her, to explore her Chinese heritage through art … and that shows in her work. It’s simple — and yes, childlike in the sense of being filled with wonder — but also possessed of thoughtful intent and a certain raw elegance.
Watercolors that Pop: Barbara Tull
No matter where you look in one of Barbara Tull’s paintings, there’s something interesting going on.
