Join Fairbanks Arts Association in the Bear Gallery this April for two colorful exhibitions featuring work by artists Kim McNett and Katelin Hiller. \;
\n\nFantastic Fens by Kim McNett
\n\nKim McNett is a naturalist\, artist\, and wilderness adventurer living in Homer\, Alaska. At the heart of her work is a curiosity and love for the natural world. McNett explores the intricacies of the natural world and blends scientific illustration into the realm of impression and imagination.
\nFantastic Fens by Kim McNett is supported\, in part\, by a grant from the Alaska State Council on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts\, with additional support from Rasmuson Foundation.\n\nLight + Variable by Katelin Hiller
\n\nKatelin Hiller explores landscapes and seasons in her mixed-media drawings. Hiller is informed by qualities of photography and focuses on light&rsquo\;s drama at a high latitude. Hiller&rsquo\;s drawings were made on the notion that we are not just connected to but rather part of the natural world\, and the evidence is in our almost subconscious expression of and reaction to weather patterns.
