Martha Inman Lorch is known for watercolors of her favorite places.  She is inspired by her international travels, as well as her experiences closer to home.  Her style is representational, with a touch of abstract expressionism.  She uses layering, wet-in-wet techniques, and visual texture to express the soulfulness she feels for her subjects.  

Renée Kelleher is an impressionist oil painter who finds delight in beautiful surroundings wherever she lives or travels.  Big city skylines, hillside vineyards, restaurant and chapel interiors, and corner flower markets inspire her alike. 

Margie Hildreth is a watercolor artist who loves the way the medium moves and blends.  It is a medium that requires a collaboration of sorts — a dance between artistic control and then allowing the serendipitous play of water and pigment to surprise and delight.  She uses vibrant color to show the contrast of light and shadow and likes to drop in unexpected colors or splatter to evoke a sense of casual fun in her paintings. 

Oil painter, JILL BANKS, teaches multiple classes a week over three semesters each year; exhibits at  top fine art festivals; sends work off to juried exhibitions; paints in juried and invitational plein air competitions; takes on a small number of portrait commissions; and travels for personal painting trips and inspiration. Stylistically, she continues to evolve from realism with feeling to impressionism with even more emotion and simplification.
