Artist Spotlight 12: Nathan Holman and Jess Miller

These two artists will be in the spotlight together because I asked both of them to trade work with me and they both said NO.

Nathan Holman
While visiting Nathan's studio I was fortunate enough to get to wear one of his masks.
His masks are amazingly intricate, and well crafted is an under statement.

Lets thank a sponsor.

Lets thank Home Builders Association of the Sioux Empire for providing us with materials to protect the gallery during Take the day. Again, none of this would be possible without the support of our community. Remember the name.

Alan Montgomery
Alan has some awesome shows planned for 2011 at the DSU gallery, make sure and ask him about them.
Make sure and check out the DSU link below, there are some great images that I was unable to copy and put in this spotlight.



An absolute honor.
