Artist and art educator Lacie Tucker will be exhibiting at Downtown Billings Alliance. Tucker will be showcasing her bold lined and expressively chromatic series inspired by plants, flowers, and still lifes. Affordable art for sale and light refreshments provided.”
Lacie Tucker was born and raised in Big Sky Country. Currently, Tucker is the art teacher for Elysian school, teaching a range of students from kindergarten to 8th grade. Fueled by her great love for education and a passion for art. Most of her studio practice is inspired by her students’ playfulness and willingness to experiment in material and technique. Typically using painting, printmaking, and installations as her vehicle of communication. She also practices and on rare occasions performs in both movement arts of belly dance and poi.
Her love of Pop Art shines through her current series as Tucker uses still lifes of flowers and plants as a jumping off point. She experiments with bold colors and thick gestural lines. The graphic style dances a line between abstract and naturalistic as well as iconic and observation. Tucker uses her bold lined and expressively chromatic series to show a new perspective on still lifes and objects around us.
When not in the studio, you can find Lacie creating lessons for her students, cooking for her husband and loved ones, taking on commissions, and traveling all while continuing to paint and dance along the way.

“French Lover” Acrylic on Canvas This abstract expressionist painting is full of vibrancy and vivid emotions from my 6 -week residency in Orqueveaux France. The emotions of its graceful hills, the landscape, and the beautiful artists I knew there, so moved me that I went up into my atelier with love on my mind. Color and life were breathing into every brushed movement… it’s as if my life and heart were joined in the same heavenly place all at once.”

Hedden-Empire Gallery welcomes two Montana artists, ceramicist Clare Jurczak, and painter Cody Gabel for the April ArtWalk.
Clare Jurczak is the ceramicist behind Elk River Clay, a small pottery studio in Worden, MT that produces functional stoneware pots. Clare is passionate about working with clay as she can use her medium to explore imagery, color, and texture while creating useful objects that can be infused into our daily lives. Clare’s work is often inspired by the subtle beauty she finds in the native plants and wildlife of the prairie landscapes surrounding Billings. You can learn more at elkriverclay.com ,
https://www.facebook.com/elkriverclay/–, https://www.instagram.com/elkriverclay/
Cody Gabel is Montana-born but grew up in and around Anchorage, Alaska. He has been back in Montana for over 15 years. Art has been a main passion of his throughout his life and will continue to be a full-time goal of his. While learning to paint, Cody’s early work consisted mainly of realism in portraits and landscapes. As his skills have developed, he has become more inspired to toe the line between abstraction and realism. He wishes to remain diverse and open-minded, not limiting himself to any specific subject matter or style, hoping this will help him grow as an artist. His current work has a strong emphasis on loose brush work, vivid color, and storytelling.
Whether it’s painting mountains, animals, buildings, or celebrities and athletes, Cody’s main objective is to show his passion and style. In the words of the great Bob Ross, “You know that this piece of canvas is your world, and in your world, you can do anything that your heart desires. On this piece of canvas, you have absolute and total freedom, that’s what makes it so fantastic.”

Mark Ager
“My art work is inspired by the street art, tattoos and modern design. I like to experiment with images that bring an element of energy and entertainment. As an artist I like to use my own time to enjoy our skatepark to manifest what I sit down to the canvas and create. I also help out around town and that’s where I believe that art is a love letter for the soul so being apart of the community as an artist I’m extremely grateful for the opportunities I get to share my passion and work.”
