More about the Artists:
Malcolm Edwards – Photography
I strive to achieve a peaceful intimacy with the subject matter and the viewer. I photograph people, the land and landscape in color and in black and white. The photographs, while differing in subject and technique, reflect my need for close contact with beauty. www.medwardsphoto.com

Betty Hageman – Painting
Betty’s recent work looks closely at microenvironments, the background surfaces brought forward as subject; archetypal habitats such as earth/dirt, water/ice, fire/plasma, air/gas/sky. The paintings are created by applying many thick, transparent color layers that wrap around the canvas and exhibit a depth and translucency similar to encaustic or polymer resin. www.bettyhageman.com

Lisa Snow Lady – Mixed Media Acrylics
Lisa’s love of botanical form and recent studies in horticulture have inspired her work. She enjoys layering texture and color into her mixed media prints and paintings to express fleeting beauty renewal and hope. www.lisasnowlady.com

Sue Robertson – Acrylic Painting
Sue Robertson works primarily with acrylic on canvas, board or watercolor paper. Her style is loose and very colorful. She considers herself an experimental painter and often incorporates elements such as ink, graphite, paper, clay and whatever other things she happens across. Whether she is painting figures, still life or abstracts, the subject is simply a vehicle for the color and stroke. www.suerobertson.net.

Also on exhibit will be two large carved wooden heads by Vashon sculptor Shawn Nordfors. Nordfors has exhibited his work throughout the Northwest and has several pieces in public collections in the area. The sculptures will be on exhibit at City Hall through August. www.shawnnordfors.com.
