BARBARA WIDMEYER TRAUTH  We sum up Barbara's paintings with the word WARMTH because they are alive, true and reassuring in the full sense, composed of defined edges and vigorous strokes that combine to present gentle moments of beauty. Barbara's style perhaps is a metaphor for the persistent strength, effort and hope life requires to earn those moments.

RON HOFFMAN  Before, during and after his tenure as Director of Media Services at Northern Kentucky University teaching honors classes and film studies, Ron captured family, friends and places in a photographic style that is ironically cinematic. This exhibit premieres a retrospective of his character driven portraits and thematic explorations. In a word, Ron's work is LIGHT, a "natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible."
