PHOTO SPECIAL I (HI II ISI W.IHR This letter boxwill; be part of the BIG Arts exhibit at Founders Gallery on Monday, Dec. 3 An exhibit featuring four artists <\ hn I'LMSJ \hc cw\ and challenge the mind comes to BIG ARIi> Founders Gallery Monday, Dec. 3 on 900 Dunlop Road, Sanibel. While obvious grandeur - the setting sun, a glisten- ing ocean, snow-crested mountain peaks - is so often revered, the splendors of everyday simplicities are oftentimes overlooked. Paul Rodino has spent 10 years exploring and observing the outside world from behind his camera, using a blend of traditional and modern techniques to create images that capture those underappreciated moments of beauty," Richard Rosen's sculpture and painting combinations and woodworks are a. reflection of his environment; from his travels to world events to the people he's met. His stimulating works evolve intuitively as he finds abstract images in •both natural and man-made objects such as clouds, rocks, trees, and skyscrapers. Anica Sturdivant's Bubble Wrap and Earth Pod series ask us to delve beneath superficial judgment. The Bubble Wrap series began as a description of the allure of popping bubble wrap and developed into an explo- ration of self-control. The Earth Pod series is an integration of the sacred and the earthly. The pods were broken open to allow us to marvel at the inside arid avoid judgment based solely "on exterior. Referred to as a sly commentator, Kathleen Walsh OUTDOOR creates spontaneous, open-tp-interpretation mixed SEATING media that invites speculation. Her work as a psychiatric nurse lends itself to her drawings and inspiration.

Your online guide to SW Florida! crs 5> Us Thanksgiving tables were a Lee County this year. Bank Of The Islands last week thanked all of their customers, fellow islanders and employees who partici- pated in their Fifth Annual-Thanksgiving Canned Food Drive. More than 200 cans and boxes of food were © donated. i-ts "You think of the Salvation Army around the holidays and in times of crisis, but they are quietly working to £3 help those in need all year long," said Bank of the Islands manager Rob Lisenbee. "When we learned how depleted their food bank was, we knew our customers z would want to help us improve the situation, showing © their true island spirit to help those less fortunate." n Islanders who donated canned goods in the bank £• lobby on Monday, Nov. 19 received a small thank you gift from the bank for their own Thanksgiving tables. n The Salvation Army accepts contributions, including donations to their food bank, throughout the year. to Contributions can be dropped off at the Red Shield © Lodge, located at 2400 Edison Avenue in Fort Myers. SPECIAL TO THE ISLANDER For additional information about how you can help, Bank Of The Islands manager Rob Lisenbee, right, call Ginny Clayborne at 334-3745.
