Artist Rob Sowers, “I find inspiration in so many things that I find it difficult to limit myself to one theme. This is apparent in my work by the variety of subject matter that I paint. My work is primarily oils, but I have experimented with acrylic in abstract images. I have always enjoyed painting. My current area of interest is figurative, combining elements of realism with other more abstract elements.”

9) Artisans’ Guild Gallery
224 Nw. 2nd Ave. 11am-10pm Daily!
Our featured artist of the month is Karen LeMonnier. Karen began her journey as an artist, painting on location. Art school introduced her to working outdoors rather than in a studio. Her style and enthusiasm come from the Impressionist artists. What she has gained from the Impressionists is that it is best to trust her senses rather than what she thinks she knows, and to take her inspiration directly from nature. Her goal is to approach each painting with a fresh, open awareness of the scene, allowing her to learn from each painting.
