Juan Fuentes' bold relief prints depict the lives of
people of color, women, workers and images about the
war. He was part of the now historical Chicano Poster
movement that addressed both local and international
issues, like Aparthied, the struggle in Palestine, and
the struggles in Latin America. Active in the San
Francisco Latino Community, Fuentes was the director of
Mission Grafica for ten years.

Color, pattern and rhythm all play a part in the
integration of the global and local in the paintings of
Cathy Schoenberg. The human form and the flora of the
jungle, be it here in the Pacific Northwest, or far off
places, is at play on the canvas, revealing the
interaction of ourselves with world around us. A Skagit
Valley artist, Cathy's work has been reproduced for the
posters on Mona Style, the Anacortes Arts festival '05,
and Art's Alive in La Conner.

Walt Padgett began making woodcuts in 1976, hand
printed in the western tradition, but when he witnessed
an exhibition and demonstration of the Japanese
woodblock printing method in 1978, he became enthralled.
He completed an intensive one month of study at the
Yoshida Hanga Academy in Tokyo in 1983 and has made
three subsequent trips to Japan since. His current work
reflects both western and eastern influences.
