Artist of the Month

Jet Martinez's work is "summed up as an obsession with nature, pattern and color. There is a division between what I consider personal work (paintings), and public work (murals). My public work is more concerned with social issues relating to the human role within nature. These works are elaborate compositions with high attention to detail and the use of light refracting materials to draw the viewer's attention." www.jetromartinez.com

Window Display of the Month

Scott Broady's display of road signs, antique license plates and automobile memorabilia has been held-over for a second month!
