色花堂app art professors Laura Ahola-Young and Naomi Adams will hold three art shows in Wyoming to help recruit students to take art classes at ISU.

鈥淧art of our goal of these shows was to talk to students about our programs at ISU,鈥 said Adams. 鈥淚t can help them learn what we are about and the number of concentrations we have for a small department.鈥

An exhibit piece.The three shows will be featured at Central Wyoming College, Casper College and Sheridan College. The shows at Central Wyoming College and Sheridan College will be featured this academic year, while Casper College will be featured in fall 2015.

鈥淎s artists, we apply for shows for our own work,鈥 said Ahola-Young. 鈥淭hese shows are more to promote our department. If this is successful, we hope it can grow and we can continue to do this.鈥

Ahola-Young will show her mixed media paintings that are layered, ambiguous and sometimes depict science and biological concepts. Adams will feature her textile art pieces that are three dimensional, three inches deep and usually have up to three colors.

鈥淚 think they are going to be interesting shows,鈥 said Adams. 鈥淏oth of our work is very detail oriented and obsessive.鈥
