Twelve Days of Christmas: Mixed Media by Jen Dunham

Most people are familiar with the English Christmas carol, The Twelve Days of Christmas.  For this exhibit, Dunham has re-imagined each of the twelve days and used vintage library card catalog cards to help tell the story.  Each piece is created in pen and ink, colored pencil, and soft pastels.  The surface for each piece is created on is six catalog cards leaving the information printed on the cards to show through the artwork and give “clues” to the subject matter of the drawings. Open during regular library hours.
