Myth & Mystery with
Tracey Clarke, Kathleen Kendall, Karen Eide
Myth, nature and the human form, presented by three artists in oils, encaustic and mixed media, speak to the artists’ affinity with the natural environment and the unseen world. Steady observation and a healthy respect for the unknown helped formulate this body of work in response to nature’s watchful eye.

Andrea Keys Connell
Manassas native, Andrea Keys Connell, an accomplished ceramicist, presented her MFA thesis exhibit at Ohio University in April 2009 and is now an Assistant Professor at Longwood University. Her large objects, often showing an unnatural displacement, are a strong statement on her focus on intergenerational trauma and how a person’s past, particularly a past that has been interrupted by a traumatic event, can influence patterned behaviors that are passed through a family.
