“It has been the aim of my work to make visible the invisible influences upon us, while being deeply interested in the spiritual side of life and highly motivated by beauty. As my art progresses, that mission has become more centered. Now I aim to also listen.”
I listen to that wee, small voice.
I listen to the loud, thunderous roar.
I listen to the voice of the birds.
I listen to the breeze in the trees.
I attempt to listen to the voice of God in and around us all.” — Barbara Desrosiers

ONE HECK OF AN ART SHOW
By Jerry & Cher Hanzl
Everyone knows Jerry and Cher. They are the couple who do that crazy stuff with their photography. Their images are always such a fantasy. It’s like they are painting with photography on a digital canvas. Jerry joined forces with Cher when she retired and together, they are true surrealists at heart. Their surrealscapes are fantasy worlds meant to be traveled through with both the eyes and the mind.

No longer safe to work with the chemicals used in printmaking Esta has entered the realm of fiber art, combing both fiber and printmaking. This work is the expression of my desire to keep on working.
