Four Artists Of The Month In April

Another group of artists is showing off its talents in April at Wheatgrass Arts and Gallery. The artist reception coming up on Friday, April 10 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. will show four local artists, each with her own unique look.

Janet Markle has a display of her whimsical sewing wonders. The dolls, quilts and other items have a lot of attention to small details. She'll be offering a class on how she makes her bookmarks at the art gallery coming up.

Betty Stone has some pretty beautiful watercolors that show off nature. She is showing a few different techniques at the gallery, so be sure to take a close look. Stone also has some very interesting Easter eggs displayed, called psyanky. The eggs have very fine details painted on them and a small description next to them talk a little bit about the meanings behind the designs.

Lin Erickson has a display of ceramics. She took a class with Jamie Hanson and has several floppy bowls displayed. Her vibrant colors give her pieces a different flair.

Pat Knierim also has watercolors on display. The paper she used gives them a different texture and the pieces displayed represent different places she's visited.
