BETTINA HEHLEN
PHOTOGRAPHY & JEWELRY
2
Jen began making jewelry as a teen and
came to love the art of creating unique
jewelry pieces with color, texture,
style, and beauty. Lobelia came to
life in 1992 and was originally sold at
craft fairs and home sales. Since 1995,
Lobelia jewelry has been sold at Fuller
Lodge Art Center, and is now available
at the Los Alamos Nature Center.
The confluence of shape and color
is the common theme for Bettina in
her photography and jewelry and
continually inspires her to develop new
ideas. As a photographer she likes to
bring images alive through designing
beautiful art cards. Additionally, her
exquisite jewelry creations are one-ofa-kind, always with a touch of glamour.

LESLIE E. BUCKLIN

QUAKING ASPEN FINE ART
PHOTOGRAPHY
Kate’s love of art and gardening come
together in her luminous oil paintings.
Her still lifes, with dark backgrounds
and focused light, find beauty in the
simplest of floral images that invite
contemplation. Her floral subjects come
from her abundant and colorful garden, always changing, and reflecting
the season. Kate’s work is represented
in private collections and galleries in
New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and
Oregon.
Leslie finds joy in photographing
where she has been and what she
has seen, so she can share her experiences with everyone. Whether here
at home in Northern New Mexico, or
far away on an adventure, Leslie’s
photography features a collection of
favorite moments and experiences
she has set aside just for you.

4000 University Drive, Building 5
Wallace Lecture Hall, Los Alamos
yarnell@unm.edu
Kathi loves to paint and draw, and
while she is currently creating people
paintings, she also creates flower and
still paintings. Recently, she has added
scratchboard art to her skills, renewing
a fascination for black and white art.
Art is a very important part of Kathi’s
life, and she feels blessed to have the
talent and means to create.
The Ceramics class will exhibit a variety
of functional and sculptural ceramic
forms that showcase their ability at
hand building, throwing, slip and glaze
work. The art of reduction firing will be
well represented with works in Raku.
Also, unique aluminum sagar-fired and
sawdust-fired works will be displayed.

Valentina has always knitted. Since
the mid-eighties she has knitted beautiful, one-of-a-kind garments and wall
hangings. She also sells a wide variety
of yarns at her studio, and teaches a
technique called “Creative Knitting”.
She hopes to always be able to knit,
and to continue inspiring many more
knitters with her work.
Heather has a particular affinity for
scratchboard, where a drawing is
created by using sharp or abrasive
tools to remove the black ink layer
from a white clay-coated board. The
nature of scratchboard and the bold
contrast are well-suited to her realistic
animal subjects, and the addition of
colored inks adds a new dimension to
her work.

PHOTOGRAPHY
Bruce Warren’s photography includes
landscapes, travel, nudes and nature,
in both color and black-and-white.
While his style of photography belongs
to the school of straight photography,
all of his current print output is
produced digitally. He has traveled
and photographed extensively in
Europe, Africa, the Far East and the
United States.

Livy Snyder’s most recent work has
turned to conceptual art in painting,
sculpture, and photography. She enjoys
the tactile stimulation of working with
materials opposed to computer work.
Although she does not currently identify
with a certain art movement, she continues to grow to in understanding how
abstract ideas are conveyed through
the visual forms.

Pat creates one-of-a-kind wood pieces for art and furniture. He works
with hardwoods like cherry, maple,
mahogany, and walnut to create “flat
furniture”, and uses the lathe and solid
pieces or segments of wood to create
“round furniture” and art pieces. He

structures, grains, and organic beauty
that wood can provide.

them together with ingenuity and
reverence, with no interest in commercial
gain or constraint by precedence of elite
art. His creations are found throughout

bring joy and a smile to the viewers.
