JAMES BORGER - has been painting for nearly 30 years, with private collectors all over the Midwest. Corporate collectors included SNR Denton, St. Luke's Hospital and Hinkle Law. His mastery of both landscape and still life is highly unusual among painters, and slightly surreal for how he merges the two.

JOHN SEBELIUS - has works with private collectors in Boston, New York and Kansas City. He has exhibited at the Rhode Island School of Design and the Gonzo Museum in Aspen. His bold abstracting of the human figure, based on a mastery of that genre, reflects a highly disciplined approach in a singularly unique style. John was named Best Artist of 2012 by the Lawrence World Journal.

Pastels by KAREN HERMAN. Energy and brightness influence her compositions--vivid reds, greens, blues, yellows and purples. Her drawings using pencil or charcoal are equally absorbing, and soothing.

Stoneware by JEFF WIEMAN and YUKARI LEE. YUKARI has been celebrating life with her work in clay since the early 90's. Her sculptural work attempts to understand the beauty of being through the evolution of forms.

JEFF WIEMAN has been an academic surgeon for most of his professional life. He began studying ceramics in 2011 and found that organic element of woodfiring brought exceptional emotion to his forms. Fishnet Secuirty is among his collectors.

MIKE McMULLEN'S phtography is the product of light, film and traditional darkroom techniques. The entire creative process is controlled by the artist and done by hand. He learned his technique partly through Ansel Adams, and is collected nationally.

Derrick Breidenthal and E. Spencer Schubert have shared a studio space for four years. Each has spent more time with the other's art than any other person. Their subject matter and medium are different, yet both deal deeply with the human experience to inform their content. The reality of their shared space is unlikely, but it's working. Their work is collected by clients such as Saint Luke's Hospital, the Missouri Capital Building, and private collectors throughout the region.
