Steve Kowalski
“Working in the figurative is a combination of life before me (the model) melding with the amazing visual influences of my life, captured canvas, paper or sculpture. I think as a society, we take ourselves too seriously. High pressures and in some cases the absolute drive for perfection determines the focus. I don’t want my art to convey that. I want it somewhat naive and playful.”
The Whitney Book Corner is pleased to exhibit a selection of a mix of monotype silk screens and collage. All pieces are available for purchase.

Barb Lennox
“My paintings are built on a series of layers, colors, and marks along with an exploration, a search, a digging for clues, a making of mistakes, of changing course, of leaving behind and a discovery of something new. It’s a practice of distillation and finding what is essential, potent and meaningful, and letting go of what is not. It’s a series of questions and responses.”
