Evening in Fairytale Village II by Kate Gundersen
 
Kate Gundersen grew up in rural Northern California in a house surrounded by orchard. At Grinnell College in Iowa, she studied painting & printmaking. After graduation she went to Africa with the Peace Corps, then pursued a Master’s degree in social work at Tulane.
Art in one form or another has been integrated within each stage of life: assembling materials for a hut in Africa, enhancing a dwelling with stained glass windows, painting large-scale abstractions. The ancient art of paper-cutting, Scherenschnitte, is her latest focus. 

Fascinated by graphic features in the natural world, Gundersen creates images of moving leaves, squirrels on wires, cloud formations. The negative space is as intriguing as positive. Much of her mental energy is devoted to analysis and planning, studying inherent limitations in the medium, and meditating on ways to create movement in otherwise static compositions. Her desired end: a scene one can step into. To see some of Gundersen’s work, visit her website at: www.kategun.com. We hope to see at the reception on September 11!
