In March and April, acrylic paintings by Auna Kaufmann-Schwartz will be on view in the Steinhauer Trust Gallery.

Kaufmann-Schwartz’s acrylic paintings are bright and colorful interpretations of wildlife, bringing vibrancy to the portraits. This series focuses on native Wisconsin wildlife, and her selection of species is informed by her interests as a wildlife ecology student.
