Annie Meyer, "I am interested in the human figure, and abstract landscapes. I’ve drawn the figure since high school and work directly from a live model. My work has evolved into what I consider an abstract sense of time and place.  With it I aim to translate the sense of identity I feel with these landscapes and figures that are both from my childhood and myself today."
Miro Merrill, "Through the act of painting, I become the bravest and most confident version of myself. This therapeutic process quiets the critiquing part of my brain and I lose myself in the exploration of mark, movement, and color. I’m inspired by the abstraction of natural forms: using a variety of marks to explore the soft twists of a body, the contrasting textures of vast landscapes, and the countless colors within a fallen leaf.
Mel Townsend, "This new series Figures and Flowers was created from using the mass stack of figure mixed medias I have created over the years from life. In this series I wanted to combine the feminine flower with the figure, I wanted the fragileness of the flower and the figure to be a force of strength when presented together.
