OH HER STUFF IS AMAZING!

The UW-Madison's art gallery has one (picture not available on the web) and it rewards long observation. Her work is so unsettling--just a little too animal to be familiar, just a little to human to disengage.

Yeah, I bet her art is way better in person than on the screen!

I'm amazed by her skills and techniques and perceptiveness. The animals' expressions are juuust this side of human, and it's all done so subtly.
