The show will include a Featured Artist Reception where you can meet the artists and share a glass of wine. Come see the artwork and its makers at the Featured Artist Reception in The Artists’ Gallery, Friday, November 13th, from 5pm to 8pm. Barb Starner has spent her career as an artist and educator. She credits her students with motivating her to use dynamic mediums, ranging from collage and alcohol ink to oils, masa paper and richly hued watercolors. Starner finds beauty and inspiration in her surroundings. Whether in a grand-scale landscape, or an intimate glimpse at the smallest of flowers, she conveys a deep and vibrant appreciation for the beauty of the world around us. A naturalist, outdoorsman, and history buff, Don fell in love with Montana’s landscapes and rich heritage during his first visit in the late seventies. He moved his family to Churchill, MT not long after.
Becoming a popular landscape painter, he has also won awards for portraiture in juried shows. Don paints the majesty of Montana’s landscape, in addition to mountain men and other characters, both real and imagined. Don’t miss out on meeting these talented artists and discussing their pieces! Located in the Emerson Center for the Arts and Culture, the Artists’ Gallery is open Monday through Saturday from 10am to 5pm. The Artists’ Gallery is a cooperative of about 20 member artists living in Bozeman and the surrounding area. It was formed in 1992, and provides an alternative to the traditional art gallery business. Members maintain freedom and control over their own artwork, and business decisions are made collectively by the artists themselves. Advertising, gallery maintenance, website design, etc. are all handled by member artists. Members even take turns working in the gallery. Stop in any time during business hours and you’ll meet one of the artists! Learn more at artistsgallerybozeman.com. •
