Nancy A Jones

When I am painting or drawing, I need tranquility. This allows me to focus on the scene/nature. My response, rather than literal, is to capture competing forces in marks, colors and forms. While I respond in summer and winter to contrasting tones: in autumn and spring, it is to lines and colors. For me, a work is a heightened moment and a personal process of how my mind filters perceptual reality

Justin Hamm

Justin’s photography and poetry show, Midwestern, depicts the rural and rustic beauty and decay of Missouri and Illinois through camera and pen. Hamm’s work, visual and verbal, is equal parts inspection of the American mythos and testament against the worn-out adage that the Midwest is merely “flyover country.”
