Led by the pitching of junior Seth Crum- mer and senior Matt “Shoobie” DeAngelis, the Miners were able to defeat the Eagles in both games by final scores of 8-2 and 9-6. In the first game of the double-header, the Miners brought in five runs in the sec- ond inning to take a 7-1 lead before Adams City got on the board in the top of the fifth inning. By then it was too late, however, as the damage had already been done with the Miners racking up 10 hits in the game. Junior Darian Lujan led the team with the stick, going 2-for-3 with two RBI’s in four plate appearances. DeAngelis also drove in two RBI’s for the Miners, who picked up their first win of the season. Crummer picked up the win from the mound, going six innings while facing 24 batters and tallying nine strikeouts. He was also handy with the stick, going 2-for-3 from the plate with one stolen base. The bats stayed hot in the second game of the double header, with the Miners jumping out to a seven-run lead before the Eagle’s bats woke up late in the seventh inning. They were only able to muster six runs, however and the Miners walked out of Cen- tral Park victorious in the two-game sweep. DeAngelis got the win, going three in- nings while striking out three batters and sophomore Vance Ferraro picked up the save with five strikeouts. Ferraro also led the Miners from the plate with a .667 aver- age, going 2-for-3 with one RBI.

ART & LITERATURE Carnegie Public Library hosts Weigand Art Show By Steve Block The Chronicle-News Sometimes an artist just has to take the plunge and devote himself to pursuing his dream immediately. For Artist R. Erik Weigand that time is right now, as he explained at the Thursday open house celebrating his one-man art show at the Carnegie Public Library. Weigand’s abstract paintings and photography will be on display until April 1. He moved to Trini- dad just about a year ago from Pennsylva- nia, finding a small studio apartment on North Commercial Street and began living the life he’d always dreamed of having. He spent many years as a truck driver and cook back east, but found those occupations unsatis- fying to his artistic temperament. Now he’s hoping to make a go of it in the chal- lenging world of artis- tic endeavor. “I’ve been doing photography all my life, but I was a work- ing fool. I just really need to be an artist because that’s who I am,” Weigand said. “For 22 years I’ve been putting my time and energy into build- ing these skills, and I feel now I’m prepared to present myself.” His show includes many fine photographs of natural scenes in Southern Colorado, but the focus is on his oil paintings. He said he uses the photographs as a way to inspire and inform his paintings. “I personally love to spend time in the riverbed,” he said. “Most days, I’ll spend at least an hour being down where the water is. I also enjoy going out to Earth Mountain Farm. It’s a great place and they’ve got a very therapeutic space out there. I’ve stayed out there a couple of weekends, and I really love places like that. Just hiking around. I like to get up on some of the hills near the college and take photos of the peaks.” He said his coming to Trini- dad was done on a whim, as he looked for a place where his ar- tistic career could flourish. He’s spent the last five years putting himself through a meditative program, trying to figure out where he’s going with his life. He does a lot of reading and is very familiar with technical manuals. “My focus became quantum mechanics and the power of our creative visualization, and knowing that without our spe- cific intent, and motion in a par- ticular direction, nothing gets done. Without motion, nothing happens. In quantum mechani- cal fashion, that’s what brought me here. I got tired of doing what I was doing. I quit my job and started looking for places out here.” He’s been welcomed to Trini- dad by fellow artists Rich Co- lumbo and John Raggio, among others. “There are other artists in town who have welcomed me here.” Some of his abstract paintings undergo changes in the artistic process. “With the abstract paintings, I’m just painting the nature scene, and when I get to a certain point things will start to present themselves. You’ll get facial features and other things, and I’ll enhance them once I start to see them appearing. Sometimes other people coming into the studio will look at what I’m doing and say, ‘Hey! Look at what I just saw.’ Sometimes I’ve had things pointed out to me and I don’t see it for three or four more days. I’m looking and I don’t see what they saw. Then suddenly, boom, there it is. It’s all in the eye of the be- holder.” Some of his work got good reviews at a January art show held at Gallery Main, he said.

ART & LITERATURE
Carnegie Public Library hosts Weigand Art ShowBy Steve BlockThe Chronicle-News
Sometimes an artist just has to take the plunge and devote himself to pursuing his dream immediately. For Artist R.
