Kelsea Rothaus is a self-taught artist based in Spokane. Her work explores themes of the human condition and the interconnectedness of the universe. Using primarily ink and water to embrace both unpredictability and permanence, each creation is shaped into a moment in time, with quiet tension between light and dark.

Kelsea's latest body of work looks outward to the stars and universe while reflecting on what it means to be human. Using her own style of ink wash, she embraces a process that is fluid yet permanent. Each mark is final, and echoes the irreversible nature of lived experience. These dreamscapes are subtly embellished with detail, inviting you to slow down and look closer at the art or into yourself.

Stop by the Liberty Gallery located in the Historic Liberty Building from Jan 25th to Feb 28th... stop by First Friday on Feb 6th to meet Kelsea in person!

Sheri Medford's creative process shifts between portrait & figurative painting, and designing "soft sculpture" animals. Primarily a mixed-media artist she is fascinated by the human form and tries to capture moments in the lives of the people she paints.

Sheri also enjoys designing and creating soft sculpture animals, and recently has begun turning 2D images into 3D soft sculptures. More than "stuffed animals" for toys, they are one-of-a-kind designs sewn by hand.

Stop by Pottery Place Plus in the Historic Liberty Building this Feb to see Sheri's original work ~ come by First Friday on Feb 6th to meet Sheri in person!
