Jesse Tobin McCauley: My latest collection is called A CHORMATIC WHIRLWIND. Simply put this current work, over that last 6 months, focuses on joy, happiness and freedom. My work is meant to turn a bad day good - to be playful and spontaneous, to suspend any worries and just let it all flow. I lean into vibrant saturated colors and strive for playfulness. It's all about unplanned surprises and taking a break from reality.

Terrence Hanlon: I have an eclectic portfolio, but I find that plants, landscapes, and cityscapes appear in a lot of my work. My only camera, at this time, is an iPhone 15 pro max, and my computer is an iPad 6. I do all my editing with those two de

Terrence Hanlon: I have an eclectic portfolio, but I find that plants, landscapes, and cityscapes appear in a lot of my work. My only camera, at this time, is an iPhone 15 pro max, and my computer is an iPad 6. I do all my editing with those two devices and the free version of Snapseed. I edit shamelessly until I get the photo I like.

Torin Porter: In these welded steel sculptures, what I am exploring and giving form to are experiences that bring personal associations that resonate as universal.

Susan Dibble: In my paintings I try to find a balance between order and chaos. I focus on the composition and arrangements of images so that when the painting is complete an energetic movement is created by how line, color, form, and figure come together to make the whole-a kind of order made by a collection of dynamic images and moments in time. I include numerous sections in each painting that capture stories, relationships, and conversations-a collection of experiences in my life transformed into symbolic imagery. I am a choreographer and think of my paintings in a similar way to making a dance in which there is movement created by combining rhythm, feeling, line and unpredictable positioning of action, color, symmetry, and asymmetry. When I sit down to paint, I am often surprised by what arrives on the paper. I am drawn to the possibility of joining mystery with clarity. In a way my paintings offer unthreatening complexity and chaos balanced with calmer and quieter forms. The balance of opposites is important to me and I try to show the dynamic energy that is evident in the movement between the opposites of order and chaos.
