Studio 8 is a group of artists who paint together weekly at Sunset River Gallery. They include Judi Moore, Brenda Riggins, Vicki Neilon, Linda Karaskevicus, Donn McCrary, Rachel Sunnell, Barbara Kohn, and Linda Hester (Kohn and Hester not shown in photo).  Their show, titled Diversity By Studio 8, runs from Monday, May 22 through Saturday, July 1. A reception to meet and talk with the artists is scheduled for Friday, June 16 from 5 to 7 p.m. The show  is a selection of new works in various styles and media. The work ranges from conceptual to traditional to contemporary. Individually speaking, the talents of this group are immense. Collectively, the artists pull from each other’s energy, humor, and love for diverse art styles. Says McCrary, the only brave gentleman in the show, “These girls don’t hold back!” They inspire each other; they reinforce each other; they encourage each other to take that leap. The result is an delightful combination of uniquely created pieces.
