Bear In Snow By Esther Baran Size: 21Lx17W About the artist: My interest in art stemmed from early childhood readings. Books are one of my primary sources for images, from early fairy stories to folk tales from a variety of cultures. While Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen were my original bed-time stories, I later discovered the tales of collectors like Afanasyev and Norwegians Jorgen Moe and Peter Asbjornsen. Many other stories have been passed down and changed from culture to culture. My favorite is the Icelandic story of a young girl whose adventures are much like those of Cinderella, but in this version she rejects the prince as being too superficial, having only noticed her in her finery and gold slippers. In most of the cultures I have explored, animals play central roles in the stories. Some cultures have animals representing deities, and in some they are comical characters whose behavior mimics humans. Some of the Native American tales use ravens, coyotes, or turtles to explain the origins of the world. Some African cultures have the spider, Ananzi, outwitting Tortoise, or the reverse. The possibilities for imagery are endless. Researching each country's history and unique characteristics is part of my enjoyment in doing the piece. I like to incorporate the fabric patterns and ornamentation from each ethnic group in borders around the images. I have used the same techniques in illustrating children's books. I focused on color etchings for 40 years, but added watercolors and oils as a more direct form of expression. In all media, in addition to folktales, I do landscapes and still lifes of fruits and vegetables

Nevada Highway by Local Artist Sandie Davis Size: 12 X 36 Sandie Davis has lived and worked in the Truckee/North Shore area for over 40 years. She only recently discovered the creative magic of painting. As a volunteer graphic designer she found a love for colors that began to find expression in painting wildly with acrylics. That finally got harnessed into painting lessons starting in 2022, opening up the world of lights, darks, patterns and the brilliance of God’s earth. When she picks up the palette knife she is excited and nervous to see what will appear! She is also a local musician, accompanying the Truckee Tahoe Community Chorus, playing piano for schools, community theater and churches in Truckee.

Cold Snap By Ellen Gust Size: 25x19 Contemporary artist Ellen Gust, works in pastel and acrylic. Her work focuses on the interaction of color & light, and how shadow affects form between structures, people or landscape catching the right mood that grabs the attention of the viewer to look deeper. She has exhibited her work in numerous galleries, juried art exhibits, and is currently represented at Gallery24 in Los Gatos, California and QD Gallery, Palo Alto, California In 2022, her work was awarded Best In Show by master pastellist, Michael Freeman of New Zealand, who said The body of work talks about the artist... This work (A Sense of Futility) grabbed my attention immediately and kept it. He said of the work that it was, masterful simplicity , bliss is more, minimum mark making, with a unique style... All of this artist's submissions were amazing. In 2020, here's what art judge Christine Ivers, a master pastelist with the Pastel Society of America, had to say about one of Ellen's award winning work, Red Suit. This impressionistic piece caught my eye immediately. With a flare of daring and the rim light that surrounds the figure I knew this was a wonderful painting. This artist was able to create a three dimensional form with so few strokes I was amazed. With only indications of sea, sand and sky through the use of pure color she drew me into this scene and story. With mark making at its best and composition to interest any viewer...
