Vincent Watts III & Bowen Kline

"My paintings explore more of a cultural environment in urban areas, which has leaded me into mixed media.

I use wood, canvas, newspaper, old sogns and other found objects to help me undertand my relationship to the world around me."


Alyse Ziede

"Life begins and ends with a beautiful mess of opportunities...
It's opportunities where the classis and distinct combine in refreshingly unexpected ways. This is beauty defined by Alyse Ziede.

Alyse's designs have been worn by famous stars such as Halle Berry, Keri Russell and many others."


Brian Patrick

"Through the lens of his camera, Chicago photographer Brian Patrick captures a wide variety of subjects. Be it the human form, rusted metal or complex architectural shapes, Brian always presents keen focal points along with contrasting textures and elegant lines."

Artist
Brian Garay
"The act of painting is an intensely personal one. Painting is about having a vision, a thought, and a desire to communicate on a level of intimacy that conventional language will not allow."




Koru Street
"To prove that eco-friendly can be fun, colorful and even silly sometimes. And can go beyond the environmental benefits to improve the lives of others all around the world."




Found Objects
"At Found Objects, fashion isn’t about trends, labels or what’s “hot” at the moment. It’s all about cultivating a sense of style that makes a statement about the wearer and reflects the spirit within."
