Wanda Kay Bowman: "In try ing to sum up some reasons for my love of art, I've found a task not easily done. Basically, I have com bined two strongly enjoyed hobbies in my life: my love of animals and my necessity to draw. "I feel a strong compassion for animals and I think that their lives are at the hands of human choice. I want to portray them in such a way as to cause emotional attachment and basic human understanding ? hopefully softening human hearts toward the gentle sides of their nat ural instincts. When I draw animals I want people to want to protect them and to think of the choices they make and how they effect all others around them." ? Richard Greenberg: " Inspired by the Renaissance painters, I began painting in the 1970s. I always enjoyed people and their many ges tures and expressions. Through my art. I have captured some of what makes the world go round." % ? Robin Leftwich: "As I progress in my study and practice of art, I find my work to be influenced the most by primary cultures. The ancient cultures of Africa and American Indians are very relevant to todays society and are usually not noted for their contributions. I find myself drawn to the symbolism that is there." ? Leo Rucker: "I paint every thing from family matters to genre paintings ? even science fiction can be found in my portfolio. I con sider pencil and oils my strongest mediums. As an artist, I hope to appeal to the discriminating collec tors with my wide range of subject matters, while inspiring young artists to pursue their dreams.

Bobbe Wright: "Illustrating adventures and diversities and Afro centric expressions is the art that imitates my life." ? Robin Ziesk: "I don't believe art is 'difficult' to view or compre hend. It is more open, more easily accessible than most people think. My sculpture is an attempt to make people view the world in a different way. It's three dimensional and takes up space the way we do. It's real, concrete, there for you to touch, that fascinated me." - -k ^ k k k k k k k k k k k k Holiday Events k in ? Downtown Winston -Salem /vf A /?A >?A itA ? ^T ? ? ? ? ? Winston Salem Square .
