media and collage art by Marsha Balian and Katie McCann will be presented at

on Saturday November 14th at Artbeat, 1880 Solano Avenue in Berkeley
from 6-8 p.m. The event is free.
Self taught Oakland artist
Marsha Balian admits resistance to following directions and prefers to invent
her own techniques. Her work incorporates found objects and images combined
with her own drawing and painting. Her art has a strong narrative quality, avoids
what might be literal and attempts to engage the imagination of the
viewer. Humor is never far behind.
English artist Katie McCann
currently lives and works in Berkeley.
Her intricate collages are inspired by childhood memories and some of
the strange creatures she encountered in her imagination. The drawings and images that she finds in her
collection of old books are cut up and transformed into paper hybrids that
surely could be found at the bottom of the garden amongst the beetles and the lilac.
