"Through mixed media, yet divergent styles, Amber and Sandra take the viewer on an exploration of the power of nature to ignite, to inspire, to nurture, to calm the human spirit. Sandra Spotts is a native of Little Rock, Arkansas and a current resident of Eureka Springs, Arkansas. She cultivated a love for art at a very early age which led to earning a degree in Art from the University of Arkansas with a minor in English.Sandra spent many years teaching elementary and junior high art as well as working as a professional artist and designer. In addition to painting, usually in an abstract expressionist style, she has worked and exhibited as a weaver, paper maker and creator of sculptural contemporary basketry, winning several awards. One of her works is a part of the permanent collection of the Art Museum of Arkansas.Her love of writing and storytelling influences her mixed media painting style in which she often incorporates fragments of letters, books and other found objects and original prose. Her themes are often highly personal and emotional responses to life events, observation of nature or global events. Sandra is co-producer and performer on the live storytelling show, “Homegrown Tales.”She currently exhibits regionally and nationally. Amber Leibee, a watercolorist and amateur naturalist. My artistic intention is to record the profound peace inherent to silent moments of solitary study and observation of the natural world. My works are small, meant for an audience of one, an intimate exchange between artist and viewer. I am influenced by Muriel Foster, Alexander von Humboldt, and Clare Walker Leslie. All paints used in my palette are hand mulled using water from a local spring, this process helps me understand how my pigments will mix and behave together on paper. The majority of my work is done en plein air, rendered first in graphite, then watercolor, and on occasion finished with pen and ink details. Amber Leibee is a watercolorist and amateur naturalist.

Since the late 1990s, KAWS has been creating a cast of iconic characters steeped in the American zeitgeist that populate his work. Each with their own distinct personality pulled in part from their creator, these characters have been a constant throughline in the artist’s career. The exhibition takes its title and thematic jumping-off point from the sculpture titled FAMILY (2021), which brings together four of KAWS’ characters posed in the style of a family portrait. As witnessed throughout the show, the relationships between the figures can be complex, familiar, and astonishingly heartfelt entryways into human emotions.

Ready to attend a fun, informative class and explore knitting techniques every knitter loves to master? This class is led by expert knitter Grace Judson, who’s been a knitter for decades (she’s not saying how many!), and who has sold patterns to yarn companies and was America’s Fastest Knitter in 2002. The session will cover practical tips designed to make your knitting easier, faster (of course!), more enjoyable, and visually appealing. We’ll dive into how to easily calculate even increases, mastering invisible yarn joining, one-row buttonholes, fixing common mistakes, and smooth bind-off techniques. We’ll also cover tips for increasing and decreasing, navigating the complexities of gauge, and cables without cableneedles. And there will be plenty of time to address your specific knitting questions! Participants should bring Aran-weight or worsted-weight yarn in several fibers (at least one should be 100% non-superwash wool), knitting needles and a crochet hook suited to your yarn, a swatch of 25 stitches by 25 rows in one of your selected yarns (extra credit if you deliberately make a mistake in the middle!), and any knitting questions you have. Get ready to enhance your skills and take your knitting to the next level!
