Bivins of Eatonville\, Washington is best known by gallery patrons for his unique and mysterious clay masks. Lindholm of Kalispell\, Montana is admired for her paintings of colorful and whimsical animal images - or "happy art" as Steve Gibbs\, former gallery owner\, defined it. The exhibition runs through April 8.\n\n \n\nOpening Reception: March 10 from 5 8pm in conjunction with Music Walk sponsored by the Coeur d'Alene Art and Culture Alliance\n\n \n\nArtist Talk and Demonstration: Saturday\, March 11 starting at 1pm at the gallery\n\n \n\nThis month's show sponsor is Collective Kitchen Public House.

Chris Bivins will impress viewers with an intriguing collection of mixed media pieces\, including vintage guitars\, clay masks\, and mixed media collages. Each piece draws on a diverse range of inspirations\, including ancient cultures\, lowbrow art\, and tattoo design. Leather\, copper\, typewriter keys\, dice\, and other found objects embellish Bivins' work\, adding interest and variety. The artist believes his short attention span lends itself to mixed media that combines the old with the new.\n\n \n\nShelle Lindholm's twenty-plus pieces showcase dancing bears\, mingling deer\, watchful birds\, and other playful compositions inspired by the critters that meander and frolic outside the artist's studio at The Nuthin' Fancy Ranch located eight miles from town. Lindholm fashions and cuts simple paper templates of the animals and assembles them to find a fresh and lively presence. With layers of wax and acrylic paint that influence color and create organic texture\, she brings her subjects to life.\n\n \n\n About the Artists\n\nChris Bivins has been making art since his brother first taught him how to draw with "smelly Magic Markers" in their basement in Alaska. When not making art\, Chris is a graphic designer and part-time ranch hand who also enjoys playing the guitar and eating Mexican food. His masks and other mixed media pieces have been part of various group shows at The Art Spirit Gallery.\n\n \n\nShelle Lindholm holds a BFA from Stephens College in Columbia\, MO. Her past work as a pattern maker and furniture painter has influenced her creative style. Lindholm is active in the Montana arts community and teaches various workshops in the region. The Art Spirit Gallery has proudly shown her work since 2015.\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nUPCOMING SHOWS AT THE ART SPIRIT GALLERY\n\n \n\nApr. 14 May 6\, 2017\n\n13 Gallery Artists Frank Boyden\, Michael de Forest\, Catherine Earle\, Mary Farrell\, Reinaldo Gil\, Robert Grimes\, Yuji Hiratsuka\, Michael R.
