Carlyn Janus - Chicago (Via IIART)
(New works this May)
I am a Chicago\Brooklyn independent artist. A graduate of The School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a focus in acrylic and mixed media painting on canvas and paper — specializing in abstracted landscapes and mid-century modern inspired graphic forms. I have been working professionally within many art fields, including fine art restoration, graphic design and interior design, for over 20 years, with career as a full-time fine art painter starting in 2012. I am represented in galleries and private collections throughout North America. I am deeply tied to nature and the environment not just through my painting themes but also with efforts towards a plant-based and low-waste lifestyle — living and working with a conscious effort towards conservation and renewable resources.

Megan Davies - Lynchburg and Gordonsville, Virginia
Megan Davies is an artist based in central Virginia whose inspiration comes from the simple, joyful moments of life. By taking what would otherwise be lost, the artist preserves memories in her work. While the source of these joys may vary – from botanicals to landscapes, from busy bus stops to bugs – Davies ties together her subject matter through the consistent use of unique contour lines and a calm, earthy palette.
