The artwork on display features a wide variety of mediums: stoneware, collage, bronze, small canvas paintings, and more. The artists participating are local and regional artists… like René Fleming, David Martin, Melissa Duncan, Janis Carper and so many more. The exhibit theme, “Little Works speaks for itself” says curator and art director of the Josephy Center, Pamela Beach. “I’ve seen exhibits like this in Portland and it’s really fun to see what artists come up with when there’s a size limitation. Asking artists to create art that might be out of the comfort zone becomes adventure. We decided on art smaller than 7 inches. The artwork in the show ranges from whimsical to the highest artistic level of skill.”
