"The Magical Season"
Just in time for the holiday season, Jeannie Vodden returns to
once again grace our gallery with her glowing, translucent
watercolor paintings and prints. Her artwork seems to be literally
lit from within, with layers of transparent hues that produce an
unusual depth of color. She creates this magic using a very limited
palette, deftly capturing the complex play of form and light that
gives her work a dazzling richness. One look at her paintings
makes it easy to see why her exceptional talent has earned so many
national and international awards. Welcome back, Jeannie Vodden!
Artists Reception: Friday, December 1st, from 3 to 7 p.m.

"The Illuminator"
Friday evening, January 5th, at 7 p.m.
This evening we present an amazing documentary about the making
of the very first handwritten and illuminated Bible created since
the invention of the printing press. Commissioned by the monks of
Saint john's Abbey and University in Minnesota, Donald Jackson,
world renowned calligrapher, in collaboration with other artists, has
created this series, using a unique blend of ancient methods, tools,
and materials. This documentary allows us to actually watch the
production of this monumental historic achievement. One of these
books, from the George Turnbull personal collection, will also be
available in the gallery during the evening for on-site viewing.
Don't miss this opportunity to see history being made!
