Diana Herring presents a selection of silkscreen and drypoint prints with a playful and contemporary
feel. A graduate of Stanford, Herring was first inspired to study art by the works of famous Bay Area
artists of the '50's and '60's. She has studied with many teachers and traveled extensively to view
original art in the US and Europe.

The title of her show is "To The Studio." The artist explains, "I have spent much of my life either in the
studio or thinking about other artists in their studios. Studios are places of contemplation where all the
experiences of an artist's life come together.

Ginger Slonaker's new works on paper, board, and canvas are a collection of imaginary portraits that
focus on the parts of ourselves that typically are less obvious to the viewer.

Slonaker suggests that often our visible selves project a different reality than what is going on in our
inner lives. One's outward persona does not tell the whole story; However, even though the weight of
the inner world can't fully be exposed, neither can it completely be hidden, and Slonaker's portraits offer
a view into each character's 'other reality' through the expressionistic eyes.

The show's name, 'Partial View', refers to our being able to see only part of a person's reality but also
highlights the fact that our bias influences what we choose to see.
