JENNIFER AUSTIN
”I fell in love with charcoal as it allows for dramatic, expressive images and incredible depth. My current work is a collection of drawings that capture and interpret the beauty and uniqueness of the natural world around me.”

Jennifer Austin was born and raised in Lincoln, NE. She earned her bachelors degree in Biology from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and also studied fine art. Jennifer has always been passionate about art and loves to spend time drawing with charcoal and painting with oils.

BARBARA SULLIVAN
“My paintings are most often colorful watercolor and mixed media landscapes. I spend considerable time visually exploring my subjects and strive to create works that intrigue the viewer and give a sense of time and place. I combine my love of drawing with the transparency, purity of color and richness of watercolor.” 

Barbara Sullivan is a Signature Member of the Kansas Watercolor Society and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Nebraska Lincoln and a Master of Arts in Education, with a Museum Education Emphasis from the University of Nebraska Kearney.

BIRDS & Bs, FLOWERS and TREES (May 2023)

Photography by Patrick Grewe and ceramics by Larry Pelter. May 3-28, 2023

PATRICK GREWE
My journey in photography began in 1979 when I bought a 35 mm film camera.  I have been taking pictures ever since.  My subject is anything that I find to be interesting or beautiful.  Most often, that will be something in the natural world like flowers, trees, birds, and butterflies, which ties in perfectly with Gallery 9’s May theme of “Birds and Bs, Flowers and Trees.”

LARRY PELTER
I grew up in Newman Grove, a farming community on the banks of the Shell Creek in north central Nebraska. I have had a diverse upbringing experiencing, at times, life as a sheepherder, cowboy, railroad gandy dancer, truck driver, anti-submarine warfare specialist, electrical engineer, barista, and Zen practitioner. Throughout my life, I have maintained a passion for the arts, having studied classical and blues guitar, painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking and ceramic art with a variety of teachers. My current work is an exploration of pottery forms , masks and sculptural pieces related to aboriginal and indigenous peoples as well as early Neolithic European cave art.  I like this work for its purity of form and connections to the earth.
