Spokane artist, Lauren Urlacher, brings flowers to life on canvas. Her hyper-realistic floral paintings invite viewers into a tranquil moment of stillness. In a fast-paced world, Lauren’s art offers a calming pause, encouraging mindfulness through close observation of nature’s intricate details. Her August show titled “Dahlia Days of Summer” celebrates the peak season of dahlias in Spokane when we see the biggest and best of these blooms.

In the show titled “Going Wild”, RRAFA artists are challenged to pass up the peaceful and quiet landscapes or still lifes and add action and unusual ideas to their art. A sleeping bear is a wild bear, but not a wild idea. Out with the pastel and pleasant and in with bright colors and exceptional designs! The artists are encouraged to courageously think outside the box or create something unique in the box.
