About the Artists:

 

Janet Aly graduated Magna Cum Laude from CSUS in 2004, has participated in various local gallery exhibitions, and is included in the International Muslim Artists Exhibition at the New Orleans African American Museum of Art, Culture and History in Louisiana. Janet Aly’s paintings consist of intricate overlapping layers of pattern and texture using uniquely Islamic designs. Traditional Middle Eastern geometric patterns, and Southeast Asian vegetal motifs, weave their way through her paintings.

 

Carey Shaw received the College of Arts and Letters Dean’s Award upon graduation from CSUS in May of 2007. She is currently studying at the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art in France. Carey Shaw’s hand-dyed and stitched papers developed out of her love for nature and the earth. She is inspired by the vibrant living colors and natural resources available to her, and utilizes the natural pigmentation found in vegetables, spices, and herbs. Carey Shaw’s current work explores purity of color, natural hues, and the delicate simplicity of beauty.
