“Sospirando” by Siri Stensberg
Oil on canvas (2018), 24” x 36”

Siri Stensberg, who is originally from Appleton, is currently a student at UW-Eau Claire pursuing a double major in art and music. 

“A jazz musician uses a vocabulary of melody, rhythm, harmony, and timbre to improvise a cohesive solo. Similarly, in this painting process I utilize my vocabulary of color, form, mark, and line to create a cohesive idea on the canvas. This series reflects both a visceral process of applying paint to a surface and an intuitive process of composing and reacting to marks on the picture plane.” – The Artist

Volume One finds its cover art in a number of ways, from local art shows to random emails to knowing someone who knows someone who knows a great artist. The art always originates from a current or former Chippewa Valley resident. If you'd like to submit cover art, send us a message.
