Red Hot Art Festival is a community supported art festival featuring over 100 emerging artists from the Twin Cities metro area. This will be my first art festival and first showing of my work in Minnesota since graduating last spring. I am excited to be showing outside of Mankato and at such an exciting event! There will be tons of local bands, art battles, food, and, of course lots of great art to look at and to buy. Red Hot Art is an annual event put on by Steven's Square Center for the Arts. More information as well as a music list and directions is available at www.redhotart.org.

Painting on Windows, Carpe Diem Hair Studio, West Bend, WI 2009
ARTIST STATEMENT
The work I have featured in this show challenge the way in which the brain interprets sight. Our brains have several preconceptions when looking at a painting. We assume that the object held within a picture frame is flat. We assume that paintings are actually two-dimensional even though they often suggest three-dimensionality. We assume that dark colors recede and light colors advance. We assume that the surface of a painting is all that we should consider. We assume that the subject is placed on top of the background to cover it up. My paintings, prints, and collages challenge the viewer to put away these misconceptions and believe, instead, what the eye is actually seeing. My work has deep historical connections but the idea of changing the way we see could not be more applicable and significant to our world today.
