How can keep my boyfriend from driving drunk without causing a scene? Whats wrong with causing a scene considering the alternatives include loss of license, accidents, injury, and possible death? Some things are worth causing a scene for even though it may be uncomfortable. Which is more uncomfortable, having a fight with your boyfriend about drinking and driving, or burying him? - ; and that niche son acts strangely sometimes but I think he is My too young to be an alcoholic. Right? Not necessarily. A 1985-8- 6 youth survey sponsored by the Parents Resource Institute for Drug Education showed that 10.4 percent of 8th graders used beer or wine once a week or more frequently. The average age that kids take their first drink is 12. A person is never too young, too old, too smart, or too successful to be an alcoholic. Trap lEdlnttaDir something interesting, Karen, listing sheep and cows among her favorite subject matter. I like my paintings to have a kind of abstract look with a realistic feel, she said, explaining that the subject may be everyday, but she looks for the interesting in the patterns of light and dark and the design that runs through the picture. There are paintings stacked around her living room on their way to somewhere else. A close-u- p study of the back of helmeted heads in a football team lineup, or another of a different line-u- p a row of cows with hides that look blue in the shade of an old tree, ora flock of sheep on the road caught for a moment with dramatic light illuminating their fleece. Glancing around the room further one notices a collection of antique dolls on the mantle and various other items full of character peppered throughout the room old lamps and other curiosities. I like having things around my house that have history, she said. I collect old dolls. When I get a doll I know some little girl held her and loved her. I used to run a consignment shop in Kaysville, you ed scene. I paint for a while and then I get stale. When I need a new direction I take a class, said Karen. My work is sort of organic grown on its own. Karen has been showing her paintings for less than three years now, but has received recognition already. Salt Lake County has purchased one of her pieces and Cliff Lodge has acquired one as well. Im doing something Ive always wanted to do, she said. Its great to be able to. My mother was an artist and stated n. rs widely-recogniz- niche is painting with watercolors. The most fun for me is when I can take an object that everybody sees all the time and turn it into rl a.m.-noo- under the instruction of Roger Cushing. She has taken classes from Nancy Lund, Osral Allred and Carl Purcell, all artists on the Utah art By MELODY SMITH Special to the Reflex-Journ- ll when she was very young she would teach us to look and to see, explained Karen. Ive always viewed things differently and I was looking at the colors, line and design in things real early. Looking back, I can see that Ive always tried to find an artistic outlet in my life, mused Karen. She recounted having numerous craft projects going at once, and getting involved in outside endeavors as well, for example, serving as costume director for Davis High School. My kitchen was a workroom for two years, she laughed. Then she stumbled upon a saying somewhere that hit home for her: Im so well rounded I dont have a , know. I like original things, not like everybody else has. I like things with personality. I go on emotions more than sense, she chuckled. This year will be Karens third to display her work at the arts festival of Main Street USA Summerfest. In addition to her paintings she had a new edition of posters, a reproduction of a floral she painted. She has also experimented with a new process to make ink prints. I love doing outdoor shows like this, she said. In galleries you dont get the reaction. I like to hear what people like and dont like. Karens first lessons in waterco-lo- r came at Viewmont High School point. So I had a garage sale and sold off my craft projects and other stuff. Watercolor is my really true love. I had to say, Look this is what Im going to spend my time at. You can get so busy you can make yourself crazy. Karen has also had a well rounded professional life. Among the unlikely jobs she has held in the past are dogcatcher of Bountiful, crew leader on flood control, and a member of the bull gang for Phillips Petroleum. She has sold mens underwear, sold advertising, and worked as a soda jerk, as well as a commercial artist for O.C. Tanner. She feels her checkered work experience has helped her as an artist. dont think you can have an experience in life doesnt ex1 pand your horizons, she pointed out. And, you cant know how to portray something without experience of it. When I was a dog catcher we went after cows, skunks, raccoons, rats. I know how those animals feel like the bumpiness of wool on a sheep. If you can portray that feeling on paper it comes through and becomes more real. Karens painting is extremely personal to her. There are some commissions I just cant do, she said ruefully. If you dont really feel it, you cant get it on paper. But most paintings she under Just a water balloon thrown from a moving car. Just kids out having a good time. Just a young girl out for a walk with her friend. Just turned her head in time to catch the water balloon on the side of the head near her eye. Just a concussion with sinus hemorrhage.
