Dillon Public Library Showcasing Three Local Artists During Downtown Art Walk

DILLON — Dillon Public Library will welcome the community to meet three local artists during the downtown Art Walk on May 8 from 5-8 p.m.

The featured artists — all from Dillon and related to one another — will showcase a variety of artistic styles and mediums ranging from acrylic and mixed media to epoxy resin and fine arts.

Caitlyn Feldt will display artwork created through acrylic and mixed media techniques inspired by thousands of nature photographs she has captured over the years, along with photography taken by her father. Her work focuses on small, fleeting moments in nature that often go unnoticed.

Jaime Feldt, an epoxy resin artist with about seven years of experience, will also be featured during the evening. While continuing to grow and experiment as an artist, she said she especially enjoys creating Halloween-themed pieces.

Also featured will be Beatrice Penn, a student at University of Montana Western pursuing a degree in fine arts. Penn hopes to use her artwork as a bridge for those struggling with mental illness. Her work draws influence from ecology, horror, chronic illness and printmaking.

Community members are encouraged to stop by the library during the Art Walk to meet the artists, view their work and support local creativity in Dillon’s downtown businesses.
