Dorothy's chosen medium is colored pencil, has lived most of her life in Colorado. From early childhood it had always been her dream to be an artist, but it wasn’t until she had worked many years as a registered nurse that she had the opportunity to attend the Colorado Institute of Art where she majored in graphic design. Since that time she has worked freelance as a muralist, a portraitist, and an illustrator of a children’s book and paper dolls for Doll Reader and Teddy Bear Magazines.

Hunter's art career began in 1964 with drawings of Godzilla in battle with squadrons of fighter jets. His fellow first graders were his early collectors for these scenes of chaos, which were all free for the asking. Hunter now works primarily in Acrylic, creating still life and representational art which incorporate a mystical, soft focus background. The subject matter varies, but his goal is to reveal the wonder of the hidden world around us.

To Heidi, there is “perfection in the most minute of details and a glimpse of eternity in the quickest of moments and the tiniest of shapes, forms, and structures.” Ms. Snyder also works in colored pencil, and has brought a variety of works, incorporating southwestern themes and extensive reference to Native America, to this exhibit.
