ANDREW CHRISTMAN – Painter
My paintings explore the tension between modes of visualization associated with both scientific and intuitive understanding. The techniques and methods that I employ synthesize the painterly and improvisational conventions of expressionism with the rendered and didactic conventions of zoological illustration and field guides. Drawing upon sources from both Eastern and Western naturalist traditions, my intention is to cultivate an empirical artistic approach rooted in the observational study of a subject and the excavation of the emotive memories of that same subject. 267.694.7709 |

CAROL COLE – Artist
Carol Cole combines ordinary objects in artful ways…through her skill and vision, junk is transformed, becoming almost invisible in its new configurations. The viewer first appreciates the bold forms, varied textures, and rich colors of her sculptures, and only after careful looking, recognizes the repurposed familiar components.
Carol’s work is in many corporate and private collections. She maintains a large inventory of available pieces and welcomes studio visits by appointment. |

SARAH GUTWIRTH – Painter
My current work deals with the concepts of relationships contained within collections and taxonomies. Some of the imagery stems from Renaissance science, some from folk taxonomies, and some is derived from collections of different kinds. I always seek to avoid the space of traditional still life, while still referencing its history.
Sarah Gutwirth is a Professor Emeritus of painting at Murray State University, now living in Philadelphia. Her MFA is from Pratt Institute and she holds a BFA in painting from the Pacific NW College of Art and a BA from Reed College. |
MELISSA MADDONNI HAIMS – Fiber Artist
Melissa is a sculptor based in Philadelphia. She creates graffiti, soft sculpture, and large-scale installations using knitted and crocheted yarns. And other stuff. She sews unconventional quilts using vintage fabrics and subversive text. Her general work ethic can be considered fast and furious. She hates the color pink. Actually, she hates most colors.
After attending a long list of East Coast art schools studying sculpture, painting, and printmaking, her career began in New York City in the 1990s. Eventually, Life led her back home to Philadelphia, where she lives with her husband and daughter. Melissa’s work has been shown in galleries and museums and is held in private collections throughout the United States. In 2014 she was featured on an A&E network television program about artists who make work out of unusual materials. She has been yarn bombing internationally since 2010. |
