2019 EAST Studio Tour

I use charcoal, ashes, soil, acrylic and wax to create paintings that combine abstraction and figuration, exploring the space between grief and joy, the place where heaven and earth converge.

Caitlin is a local illustrator. Her work is rooted in a midcentury influence, through the lens of modern existence. She focuses on a representation of repeat patterns and texture in our natural world, and messages of strength and acceptance. This love of smaller details is what the artist brings to her audience: an appreciation for the lovely things in life.

I’m but a young afro in a city of dreams. I accredit my work to the creative juices I consume from cartoons and ‘mom’s approved-life giving water’, generating a spirit bomb of ideas that I plan to ride alllll the way to my destiny. (fist bump)

Inspired by music, my mixed media portraits are visual love letters to the sounds, personalities, and moxie of those I admire. I choose materials and techniques which lend themselves towards looseness in order to playfully explore and portray a sensation of vibrant energy. My art embodies a spirit of colorful fun with an intent to uplift and celebrate!

I am an artist and educator who is interested in ideas of connection and interconnectivity. My paintings explore ways in which people, nature and objects interact with one another to form a complex whole that operates (often unrecognized by the participants) as a system. My Draw Your Own / Mail Art Series encourages participants to create and share reflective and original works.

I explore patterns to create a language through imagery and repetition that is designed to be interpreted by the viewers inspection and introspection. I play with the partnership between the viewer and the content and seek to play with that transient moment between initial perceptions and the understanding that develops through exploration.

In Brian’s world, dumpsters contain treasure, and gold can be struck in a scrap wood pile by the side of the road. The reclaimed wood that forms the foundation of his work is often rife with blemishes, knots, and nail holes. A resident of Austin, Texas, Brian’s work embraces the beauty and resilience of his home state.

The sculptures explore cast light and shadows effects from the sun. As the sun tracks across the sky, it creates ephemeral moments on the surfaces of the sculpture and surrounding area.
