NATURE ELEMENTALS
Lori Lynn Hoffer • Oil Paintings
Jacqueline Strauss • Fabric Beasts
Nature elementals are associated with one of the four elements of nature: earth, water, air, or fire. LCA resident Lori Lynn will be showing new oil paintings featuring water scenes, local landscapes and botanical images. While her work focuses on the beauty and power of the natural world Jacqueline's beasts explore our elemental human-ness. In ways both playful and plaintive her sewn creatures reflect many moods, emotions and states of being. Side by side the work of these two local artists integrates both a sense of color play and enjoyment of simple basic beingness.
