David Davis
The artists of Fire and Water ART! mourn the loss of our friend David Davis who died last night at the age of 64. His faith in God sustained him through many losses and health challenges. He was a fun filled and knowledgeable teacher of art and a wonderful artist. He was a fixture in Lowell and has influenced and encouraged many budding artists. I will always remember his reference to the color 'chocolate green' and the way he encouraged and teased people to relax into the process of art. He was a very caring person and he will be missed by his many friends and admirers.

March is Women's History month
March is Women's History Month
and we are celebrating BIG at Fire and Water Art:
"Visionary Women" – This exhibit honors the importance of female
artists in today's society. Women intuitively know how to inspire,
motivate, and pave the way to a better world.
To acknowledge the role that female artists play in today's society,
the artists of Fire and Water Art will be exhibiting their own self-
portraits during the month of March, 2008.
Female artists open the eyes, ears, and minds of society and use art as a therapeutic tool.
The reception will be Sunday, March 16th from 2 to 4pm:
The artists of Fire and Water Art are celebrating the role of female artists to spark engagement with the community and say,
"Stop, you can't walk past this. This is your life!"
Women know how to invite the viewer to be a part of something
greater than themselves and to explore other possibilities. Meet
and greet our very own visionaries from Michigan.
Hear readings about the artists that inspire us.
Participate in making "Women Power" greeting cards.
