Exhibit Opening/Reception: “Driftless Past & Present” by Jamie Schwaba

Jamie Schwaba is an artist from right here in Winona. She selected the name “Schwaba Drama Art” for the fun ringing sound and because her lifelong love and work inspired my visual art practice in theatre and music.

Jamie typically creates with her favorite medium which is oil pastels. She describes oil pastels as vibrant, creamy crayons that allow you to use a mix of drawing and painting techniques at once. She also incorporates the use of acrylic paint pens, an ebony pencil, ink pens, and colored pencils to add details.
