An energetic synergy is released when Lisa Medendorp’s abstract paintings and the surrealistic sculptures of Amy Wilkinson get together. The dancing, twisting painted forms on canvas create a fitting surround to the restrained tension held in sculptural suspension.

The totemic, somewhat figurative forms in Medendorp’s paintings evoke mythological styles, The Lake Marcher’s series can be interpreted as being mythological

July 6 through 29Southwest Michigan PrintmakersReception Saturday, July 29, 12:30-2:00 p.m.Jansma Gallery at NCCA-Artsplace, 13 E. Main St., Fremont. 231-924-4022.

Originating from the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts’ print studio in the mid-1970’s, the Southwest Michigan Printmakers is a diverse and informal group of regional artist/printmakers dedicated to the creation of hand-made and fine art prints. Meeting bi-monthly, the group encourages artists working in printmaking and promotes excellence in the various print mediums. Through exhibitions of their works, SWMP helps

to encourage public knowledge, understanding, and support for printmaking.

The prints from this invitational were exhibited at both Little Cities Gallery in Kalamazoo, and in the Ginza Tower Gallery in Tokyo, Japan. The exhibit encompasses a wide selection of printmaking materials and processes.

The KIA print studio is enjoying renewed interest from the community. Artists and students actively utilize the well-equipped studio for classes, workshops, and personal use.

Paul’s photography reflects a combination of talent, technical skill, knowledge of his subject, human nature and the environment. Enjoy his stunning Michigan scenes.

Sheryl budnikJuly 25 - September 16

Many of Sheryl’s paintings are about water, the ocean and the Great Lakes. Other portfolios show landscapes and abstract paintings. Using oils and palette knives, she intuitively builds the paint skin, strives for a visual flash-point and search es for unknown places of the spirit. Her painting surface is visceral: color, movement and light define the image.

The Turtle by Tamara Hirzel

Sentinel by Lisa Medendorp

defenders of the environment who march across Lake Michigan with the ever changing weather fronts.

Wilkinson utilizes wrapped wire and other fibers to create an eclectic weaving of reclaimed materials. Her themes involve strength, beauty, and perseverance lightly veiled in nostalgia, and encourage frugality when considering our resource allocations.

The two artists share a respect for the environment that is evident by the re-purposing of discarded materials in Wilkinson’s rustic assemblages that are in harmony with the themes that underlie Medendorp’s paintings. The use of interwoven shapes and materials in the works by both artists echo the interconnected web of nature.

With their sixteen foot camper and their 97 pound dog, Butter, they have been touring nationwide.
