I title series of my work, Small Offerings. The work addresses people and situations that touch my heart, focusing on the importance of sacred personal rituals and the objects we surround ourselves with and use in our daily lives. 
I am forever drawn to sacred ritual objects for their mystical significance and inherent beauty. I am moved by the intimate shrines people passionately create in niches by their doorways, inside their homes and yards, in their businesses, on roadsides, and in public spaces; merging religious and domestic objects together in homage to God, living and deceased loved ones or causes they were passionate about. 
I want my work to entice the viewer to slow down, experience a quiet moment, be reflective, be grateful, and look at, and act in the world around them with intention.

Statements from the Artists

Rick Yasko

My watercolors often appear as a somewhat free-for-all assemblage of randomly selected images. Though images are selected by strictly casual visual criteria, associative relationships are often present. The ground is a complex mix of patterning, reliefs, text commentaries & asides, along with clustering of repeated images (my persistent Greek Chorus). Compositions rely heavily on subjective associations that open into a unique poetic vein. Stenciled phrases hint at allegory, building a suggested story line. Patterns provide a way in which to unify the composition and address it as a continuous construction, my visual gameboard.
The multilayered images exist on a stage where the fragility and instability of a seemingly certain reality comes into question. Viewers may carry away a spark of an idea that will allow an exploration of beliefs and situations, possibly challenging their assumed realities in the process.
