Katherine Johnson, Sara-Lou Klein, John Horner, and Eric Havelock-Bailie


Katherine Johnson:  FREE-FALLING At this time of grief and turmoil, acceptance is my guide in opening to free-falling in my work.  I go wherever the process takes me, adding and subtracting, sometimes scrubbing off or following the direction of mistakes.  And moving through what doesn’t work can be an act of compassion.   I keep on until I sense that it may be a place to stop.  Whatever happens is a gift.   Sara-Lou Klien: small Sara-Lou Klein used her last name as a jumping off point to create this small body of artwork (Klein means small in German). The common thread amongst them is that they were made mostly from salvaged pieces of wood from her father’s woodworking workshop. The media of colored pencils, acrylic paint, watercolor, ink, and collage material were used to experiment with a variety of whimsical images. She is inviting the community to bring a box of tampons, pads, mini-pads, or other personal hygiene products, to the gallery, in exchange for a die-cut vinyl sticker (featuring her art). The collected items will be donated to The Action Center of Jefferson County - who assists those facing hardship and homelessness. John Horner: New Tangents; Explorations of Bas relief and its implications The Idea of bas relief had long since been of interest to myself, inspired by the bas reliefs in the Louve and the British museum bas relief panels of Assyrian and Egyptian art  and strangely enough German and French expressionism. As a painter and print maker it is for me a small step from relief printing to bas relief, so this idea was never far in the background of the artist thinking, in this experimental series I am  directly is carving  into commercial  bass wood veneered panels, the  idea being to explore the possibilities of this technique, as bas relief and by extension as relief print and painting on the panels after that, this  series and can be seen in many ways as continuation of my previous exploration of the of the fauna of Colorado as seen in earlier series though in different mediums. Eric Havelock-Bailie: Goodbye, Hello By juxtaposing two bodies of work, one completed and one emerging, I’m hoping to describe visually the transition from one world to another, going from 15 years off the grid to a place I only knew vaguely which is now my home. A real city. Nothing more and hopefully nothing less. And the title is a play on a well-known song (to be continued)... Gallery Hours: Friday: 6-9pm Saturday & Sunday: 12-5pm 6501 W.
