'Souvenirs' — veteran artist,

works»
In
her exhibition of paintings and photographs, "Souvenirs," at the Finch
Lane Gallery, Maureen O'Hara Ure has exposed her Gaelic roots
— deep roots, tangled by memories of childhood, Catholicism,
pedantry and the runes of modern art. "Souvenirs" — a visual
account of the artist's visit to Scotland and Ireland with her husband
Lincoln Ure, an Episcopal priest — will challenge viewers'
perceptions of the British Isles. Article by Dave Gagon in: Deseret Morning News
