SUMMARY:Featured Artist: Lynn Shield
DESCRIPTION:Lynn Shield\nFeatured Artist\nDates: October/November 2024\n \n“As a Western artist\, I strive to capture the essence of the West in my bold and vibrant paintings. Inspired by the beauty of Montana\, my artwork features wildflowers\, horses\, wildlife\, cowgirls\, and cowboys. With non-traditional materials like Brusho® crystal colors and alcohol inks\, I achieve unique color variations that reflect my love of color and passion for painting. I infuse energy and excitement into my pieces by incorporating techniques such as splashing\, splattering\, and dripping paint. I’m always excited to see what’s next!” \n\nABOUT LYNN

SUMMARY:Billings Arts Association - Cynthia Kessler
DESCRIPTION:Cynthia Kessler\nBillings Arts Association\nFEATURED ARTIST \nDates: October/November 2024 \nI am a retired elementary/jr. high teacher.  My first interest in art was working with children in art and crafts\, urging them to create without judgement. I have worked many summers as an arts and crafts counselor at a church camp outside of Red Lodge. \nMy watercolor experience started about 12 years ago with the encouragement from my cousin to try watercolor. Since that time I have taken lessons from Lance Johnson and others. My favorite topics to paint are landscapes\, animals and old buildings.  I have other hobbies including beading\, quilting and stained glass. \nOften we feel in order to be creative we must have some sort of talent that produces something good enough to be hung on a wall\, not just a refrigerator. As we age we often are afraid to explore our creative side. We should find the child in ourselves and enjoy the journey of creative exploration. ​​​​​​​ \n​​​​​​​​​Cynthia Kessler \nPORTFOLIO: \n\n  \n\nABOUT BIILLINGS ART ASSOCIATION

SUMMARY:Rachael Deyle
DESCRIPTION:Rachael Deyle\nWelcome New Artist\nDates: October/November 2024 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“I’ve been absolutely terrified every moment of my life and l’ve never let it keep me from a single thing that I wanted to do.” – Georgia O’Keeffe \nMy art education had a modest start in High School under the instruction of Artist George Fredrick VanBuren in Wright WY\, and then at Northwest Community College in Powell WY\, under the instruction of Artist John Giarrizzo. \n“Humility is the precondition for learning and why it’s one of the highest moral virtues.” – Jordan Peterson. \nI am a member of the Billings Art Association\, Cody Country Art League\, and I attend traditional figure drawing sessions with “Black Hands Group” at MSUB – Billings\, MT. I am also a mother\, wife\, and in the daytime hours\, work as an insurance agent “Superhero.” \nI’ve taken inspiration from great artists in history\, merely standing on their shoulders as they say\, studying their works\, process\, and absorbing bits of assorted philosophy from Georgia O’Keeffe\, Alphonse Mucha\, Gustav Klimt\, Andrew Wyeth and even the Italian Old Master\, Caravaggio. Each of these ‘Greats’ share mastery of technique & medium\, and the drama of story. Technique is imperative\, and I’ve worked over the years to develop my skills in the essential elements of Art & Design. \nAs Pablo Picasso said: “Learn the rules like a pro\, so you can break them like an artist.” The Vibrant color palette & crisp line quality of my body of work is the outward expression of my inward reality. It’s been said of me before\, I make things “tick.” I believe this inward buzz of energy comes through in my work and speaks to the viewer of enthusiasm\, positivity\, and daydream. Art spans all disciplines\, and many of my works are inspired by my own Mental Images while reading from Authors such as Neil Gaiman\, (Gerald) Brom\, C.S. Lewis\, Frank Delaney\, Jordan Peterson\, etc. I pull from my roots then\, as a Storyteller; “Every story is THE ONE story” and “I told you that story so I could tell you this one…” \n“Even in literature and art\, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will\, nine times out of ten\, become original without ever having noticed it.” – C.S.\nLewis\, Mere Christianity. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSOME OF RACHAEL’S WORK \n[Holed UpHow I'll Always See HerLet Her Run ThenLife Study - Reclined with Glasses 2Life Study - Reclined with GlassesSkull - ExposedLife Study Conte TorsoSnowmaidenTheoSelf Portrait in Objects \n
