"Two Solo Exhibitons: Lollie Groth, Like a Buddah and Nancy Skrimstad, River Juice"
2001-06-30 until 2001-08-05
Visual Arts Center on Maui
Makawao, HI, USA United States of America

Hui No‚eau Visual Arts Center on Maui is proud to present its 2001 Solo Exhibit featuring Lollie Groth and Nancy Skrimstad. This inspiring show will exhibit a selection of mixed media, prints, paintings and drawings by these whimsical adult artists.

Lollie Groth
I use painting as a way to get to a better place, a state of mind that is uplifting; I hope that that gets translated in the viewing.‰ Lollie Groth‚s states, For me, art can be that empty space, a space to have fun in and a space to find relief from the machinations of the mind. For the past five years I have done icon-like pieces, brightly colored portraits of beings who I find inspirational. The work which I am just beginning to do and which I want to do more of involves an emphasis on process. So a piece might be a study of line, a meditation on line, while another might be a meditation on meditating and would incorporate a blown up two-dimensional page that would function as a painting. I am a writer and like to use writing with my art work.

Nancy Skrimstad
I am an artist who finds that when I finally master a certain technique or subject matter, the challenge is gone and I get bored. When I reach this stage I must shift gears and begin to push, struggle, and humble myself into a new relationship with my art. The boredom starts to slide into excitement as a new challenge emerges. I am very pleased to say I am in the stage as I prepare for my upcoming show. My imagery is evolved from the passionate side of my being. I do not know why I create what I do but to be quite honest I don't want to know, what fun would that be?
