The website also said in this previous year, the CCAC supported artists with $5,000 in grants.

After she retired, she decided to actively pursue art. I do pastels mostly and I do watercolor, Woolsey said. Im not very good at oils, but I like the idea. Woolsey also presented what she learned about fused glass art, created by melting glass in a kiln. Fused glass is an accessible art form that has grown rapidly in popularity. After I retired I thought; I love glass, Woolsey said. I think its kind of like pastels, the colors are just bright. So I got the kiln with the grant money ... thats kind of where I am now. Riley Brown, a Cedar City resident, performed one original song; Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and another original song as a duet with his girlfriend at the event. When I think of art, I think of two things, Brown said. I think of expression, and I think of dreaming and imagination. Brown said he initially got into playing the guitar to get girls, but now it is more than that. Some of the things that inspire him are people in his life including friends and love interests, as well as religion.

Cook will speak about her creative process tonight as a part of the weekly Art Insights lecture series. Cook, originally from Great Britain, now resides in New York. Over the last several years, she has been invited to participate in several shows. In 2014 she received an honoiable mention from the Portrait Society of America. In 2013, Cooks work was exhibited at the fountain Art Fair, in Manhattans Armory. Her work was also shown in France, Germany and Romania as part of the Dacia Universal Art Project. Cook is set to have her next solo show in 2016 at New Yorks Dacia Gallery. In a press release, Cook said the common theme in her work is her fascination with the human figure. Its timeless, beautiful and powerful, Cook said. Additional inspiration comes from variety of sources ranging from the old masters to modern day advertising, graffiti and body art. My goal is to combine these elements, along with my own imagination, into a cohesive, strong statement that intrigues and engages the viewer. BRENT FOLEY Quick and easy egg and cheese muffins.
