His furniture, household goods, vessels, and sculptures are beautifully crafted. Learn more at www.resurrectedwoodworks.com.

Lori George

Lori creates expressionist florals and abstracts with vivid colors and layers. Working primarily in acrylic, she often incorporates pastels, collages, and paint pens. She also teaches free art tutorials on Let’s Make Art and Olive and Archer’s Unbound program. Learn more at www.lorigeorgeart.com.

Jen Foster

Jen creates intricate pen and ink drawings influenced by the chaos and symmetry in everyday life. Negative/positive space, perspective, and tonal gradients guide much of what she creates; clean, straight lines alongside tangled, organic elements add contemplative depth to her art.

Rebecca Bancroft

Everywhere she looks, Rebecca sees bots waiting to be reunited with heads, appendages, and bodies. It has become her mission to rescue these parts, reassemble them, and release completed robots into the world again. Made of vintage metalware, each bot has its own name, story, and personality for you to bond with. Meet them at www.thebotconnection.com.
