! iil 7iiii!i ¸ i iii !i ¸ "STILL LIFE WITH WINE IN MIND," by Lisa Lee Pearce edona artist shows work in Scottsda00e Sedona artist Lisa Lee Pearce is showing a new collection of her work at the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale through June. Pearce created 16 new pieces for this show. Each one-of-a- kind piece is hand painted and multidimensional with meticu- lous precision and detail. Her work is a juxtaposition of shapes and color, using positive and negative space and exploding with bright colorful energy and a larger-than-life sense of magic. She describes her work as a complex mixture of fine art, innovative craft and graphic design. "This unique combina- tion provides me the freedom to create subject matter that resides in both realms of fantasy and reality. Ultimately the entire process is found in the viewer's interpretation of my work," Pearce stated in a press release. She has always loved art. Drawing and exploring different media and the creative process are her passion. Inspiration comes from many different sources: music, architecture, nature, light, color, relation- ships and her everyday life experiences. "Art is sometimes about life and it can only be planned to an extent. The process brings with it surprises and new possibilities. No image is so predetermined that it can't surrender to the currents of the creative process, " she stated. "My artwork inspires me and makes me who I am. I want my artwork to make a difference. I am very passionate about each piece as I watch them take on a life of their own." Pearce has been involved with the Mayo Clinic Humanities in Medicine program for more than 10 years. "Having the oppo .rtunity to be part of art in public places allows me to work on a larger scale and gives me the ability to really express myself. It is such a privilege to be associated with this program. Knowing that my art might play a small role in the patients' healing process is a very grati- fying and humbling experience for me," Pearce stated. An 18-year Sedona resident, Pearce has donated her artwork and creativity to many local charities and organizations in an effort to help them raise money for their designated benefactors. The Sedona Medical Center, Sedona Arts Festival, Sedona Jazz on the Rocks, Sedona International Film Festival, and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northern Arizona have benefited from her generosity. Many of her works are included in the permanent art collections of the Mayo Clinic- Scottsdale, Mayo Hospital- Scottsdale; Phoenix Children's "THREE," by Lisa Lee Pearce Hospital; Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Denver; and many private estates of celebri- ties and international clients.

RED ROCK NEWS, Sedona, Arizona Friday, May 28, 2010 - 5B Public reminded to leave wildlife alone The Arizona Game and Fish Department reminds the public not to remove baby animals from the wild. For wildlife, leaving young behind is generally a protec- tive slight-of-hand trick used in response to a potential threat. The baby animals have not been abandoned and should not be whisked away by well-inten- tioned individuals. Such an action could have dire conse- quences for the wildlife and could result in a fine for the individual. "The intentions are good, but the i;esults are most often a death sentence," stated Erin Butler, game specialist with the Game and Fish Office in Kingman. "The first instinct is to lend a helping hand, but people have to fight that urge." In addition to the negative impacts on the animals, indi- viduals removing wildlife are subject to citation and potential civil assessment for the loss of wildlife to the state of Arizona. Butler explained that young animals are rarely abandoned. When a perceived threat -- such as a human in close proximity -- disappears, wildlife parents will return to care for their young. Removal diminishes the odds of survival. Butler said young quail will follow their mothers soon after hatching, but if the mother is frightened, she will fly away or try to distract the perceived predator by acting injured. When the threat "is gone, the mother returns. "It's also important to remember that quail are a ground-based bird," Butler stated. "They do not lall from nests." Quail are just one example. All wildlife should be left alone. Removal of pronghorn fawns is a liability and baby rabbits, often thought to be in distress when seen alone, will most certainly die if removed from the wild. Avian parents will continue to care for a hatchling that has fallen from a nest; however, if the bird is in immediate danger, it is okay to place it back in the nest or in a nearby tree. Contrary to popular belief, human scent will not concern the parents. "It's nice to have people so concerned about the welfare of wildlife," Butler stated. "We just ask that people do what is best for the animals, and the best thing is to leave them alone.' There are other methods to help, such as keeping an eye on pets and watching vehicle speed. Pet dogs and cats negatively impact wildlife, especially in the spring when animals are born and hatched, and vehicles remain the top killer of wildlife in the nation. As for human intervention, it's simply best to let nature run its course. "You wouldn't want someone picking up your child in the front yard and dropping them off at the police station when you simply stepped into the house for a moment," Butler stated. "There's no reason to remove wildlife, either." If you have quostions abOut a situation you may contact the Game and Fish Office at 692-7700.
