In this exhibition of her latest body of work, retired faculty member Terry Spehar-Fahey introduces audiences to the world of Idaho ranching families of the Pahsimeroi Valley. Spehar-Fahey collaborated with photographer Kirstie Lambert, who lives part time in Ventura, California, and part time in Idaho, where she documents contemporary ranching life.

“When I first saw Kirstie’s photographs, I was just taken aback by how she saw the world,” Spehar-Fahey said. “Her images looked as if I had special-ordered them for my purpose. Throughout my career as a watercolorist, though the subject matter has changed, I always sought to create a sense of space and light, of how we see, for the viewer.”

Spehar-Fahey, a retired Cal Lutheran senior lecturer of art, works in watercolor primarily and has taught watercolor along with a variety of courses including Art and Psychology; Visual Art in Education; Drawing; and two courses co-led with a colleague: ComicComm and Imagining Venice.
