Sam Steph Art
Multimedia 2D and 3D abstract constructions. “Reconstruction” is a word I’ve used to describe my style. As a child I was always taking things apart and rearranging them to suit my sensibility.” My education in architecture and furniture design come through in my art.

Jo Edwards
As a studio artist, I have the freedom to adjust colors and composition of ordinary landscapes with unusual colors and styles.
I’m calling this first painting of 2025, Easy Landing, finished! I don’t know what it is about the sound of waves, the smell of salt air and cry of seagulls that lift my spirit and calm my soul. My love for painting seascapes seems to grow with each finished piece so look for more to come.
Magda Knop
I think I was in 4th grade when someone told me I had something with colors. But it took me quite some time before I really started painting, first I was painting in an impressionist style, just because I fell in love with the colors of Provence. But my real love is abstract painting … there is so much creativity involved. It’s all about colors, balance, energy …

Teresita Gil Art
Flow art changed my life. Pouring gives me the ability to create unique and different artwork, that works for me. I love the versatility and the many ways to enjoy, my mind explodes with colors and freedom of expression allowed with this medium. It is non-objective expressionism! Hope to bring joy! Welcome to my imaginary world of color! 832-338-9672

Kathleen Buys: KBuysArt
Kathleen Buys’ birds are a perfect juxtaposition of realism to abstract. The organic bare wood elements layered with washes of paint is a beautiful compliment to the photo realistic birds painted with oil. The bird invites viewers to come closer to investigate brushstroke for proof that they are not photos.
