Jacqueline Weegels Burns - My whole life I have always been involved in arts and crafts. Now, having two children, my art seems more eclectic than ever, because I am influenced by them and THEIR art. In turn it is wonderful to see how I inspire them with my stories and art. We have created art together, ranging from home made cards, watercolor pictures, multi-media images, 3-D objects and much more. My art will always be varied as I enjoy switching between small detailed pictures and larger abstract works....

Debra Lennox - My latest work explores the vibrant use of pure colors & composition to express an intangible, surreal quality of a place. Light, color and form combine to push the figurative subject into the realm of dreams, capturing a moment in between the frenzied pace of modern life, when time slows and we become open to other, magical and spiritual influences on our lives. I am a painter in many mediums * watercolor, acrylic, & oils, and collage. I live in Comptche, California, and travel often for inspiration. I use my architectural degree as a designer and draftsman on the Mendocino Coast. I am a member at the Artists' Co-op of Mendocino, where I sell original works, laser prints and art cards.
