My reasons for painting evolve as life happens and time marches on. I am however, continually fascinated with nature and wild outdoor places where I can hear the wind caress the tree tops, smell the earth-like aromas our planet has to offer, and of course witness the play of light on forms and colors.

Connor Bacon
I have always been a storyteller. Flashback to 6th grade, I’m equipped with a camcorder I received for Christmas recording home videos of my family and friends. Throughout the years that followed I was constantly documenting the lives of those closest to me, without any conscious awareness that I was doing so. I truly see every moment as a possible story, and live my life to gather as many stories as possible. In recent years, I took a more direct approach and have managed to make a business out of it.

I consider myself a pixel manipulator. I specialize in digital art since I wasn’t high school. That was 30 years ago when I began my love of computer graphics.The apps on the android play store are the main apps I use. My objective has been to produce new media using generative new media apps. I like to push the limits of the app and create things that people aren’t doing yet I guess you could say that would be influencing. I find it relaxing and calming and very exciting.

Functional or decorative ceramics, pottery, sculpture. I love all things clay! My name is Emily Franklin, born and raised in Spokane. Clay is my happy place. I spend hours upon hours giggling with joy as the pieces I make bleed out of my jumbled and chaotic mind.
