Cheryl Chidester
As long as she can remember, Cheryl has thought of herself as an artist and, although it has sometimes been challenging, she has strived to stay connected to that part of her. The creative process has been an integral part her life while life experiences have influenced her art. Earning a BFA from Eastern Michigan University followed by a Master of Science Degree, she has held a number of art-related positions – graphic designer, gallery manager, art instructor, muralist, set designer, architectural historian. While her art can be described as eclectic, it shares common themes. Chidester’s work is often inspired by nature and her travels and employs textures, light and color to convey her impression of a subject matter, place or culture. She works in a variety of media and frequently combines techniques and media, exploring where it will lead to in the creation process and in the finished piece.

Pamela Day
From her studio in Wixom, Michigan, award winning Detroit-area artist, Pamela Day creates imaginative, expressive, unique figurative sculptural ceramic work, and paintings. Her work can be described as stylized-realism. Pamela is a fine artist with a concentration of art work that begins with clay – versatile in figurative sculpture, clay reliefs, tiles and wheel-thrown work. Also, she paints with gouache – an opaque watercolor, creating collage-like paintings, and expressive flora and fauna. Pamela has also combined her paintings to create background and environments for her figurative ceramic sculptures giving an in-depth story and illustration for her figures, this combination of techniques included in her Grimm Tale Series. http://www.pameladaystudio.com |

Beverly Koivunen
I am a curious artist, more or less self-taught and inspired by nontraditional techniques and mediums used by creators all over the world. I frequently catch myself going down internet rabbit holes, coming up for breath, newly motivated, but there is never enough time. I tend toward revisiting old favorite artistic techniques, like stained glass and embroidery but with a new twist. Experimenting with painting on Silk and manipulating Cold Wax medium, combining them here and there for a mixed media work. I am also a color junkie attracted to bright and shiny objects, most of which can be found stashed in my personal Room of Requirements. bkoivunen@aol.com |
