Library Exhibit July 1-August 30 First Floor West Wing:
Paintings by Jeff LeMieux

Jeff LeMieux has been a resident of the Fox Valley since 1984. Jeff is
married with two grown children. He recently graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Education with a Master of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art. He holds several undergraduate degrees, including a Bachelor of Science in Philosophy, and is currently employed as an illustrator for Appleton Coated LLC in Combined Locks and as a Lecturer in Art at the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley where he has a painting studio.

Jeff's artwork has been shown in galleries from Pennsylvania to Washington State. In describing his artistic goals, Jeff notes: "I'm working on finding a visual balance between chaos and order, a fertile zone where anything is possible. I find that paintings, though static, can act as catalysts for new ideas. My hope is that the paintings I make keep on giving. By that I mean that I'm trying to make art that changes each time you see it. Each time you look, I hope you find something new, something you didn't notice before. The colors, shapes, and ideas I use are intended to stimulate thought, interest, and debate about the nature of order and worth, and to encourage an examination of our own definitions and values both as individuals and as participants in a larger human community."
