Stephen Keyton
Dumpster Diving Master, Stephen works exclusively with found objects. "I use them as I find them and take suggestions from them as I build each piece. I am as much a witness to the process as I am the master of it. "
Brenda Luckin
It is the visually decorative trappings of the 70’s and 80’s that has influenced my work. The fashion, architecture, film and of course the color were like an explosion. Artists were making work that reflected the popularity of their own time. As my work progressed, my materials changed, but still focused on popular visual ideas. I became observer,commentator and artist.
Tom Schultz
Tom Schultz was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1939. Basically a self-taught artist, he studied privately with Charles Bunnell in Colorado in the 1950s. He arrived in New York in 1959, at the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement, and met artists connected with the New York School of painting. That experience inspired him and expanded his outlook on painting.
