James C. Christensen

James C. Christensen is inspired by the world's myths, fables and tale s of imagination, Christensen wants his work to add up to more than a beautiful-if sometimes "curious"-looking work of art.  Recently retired as a professor of art at Brigham Young University for over 20 years,  Christensen continues to be a "professor of Imagination."  Viewing the world as his classroom, his hope is that through whatever he creates be it a fine art print, porcelain or book he can convey a message, inspiration or a simple laugh.  He believes that teaching people to use their imagination helps us find solutions to sooth the stresses of everyday life or get a little lift to help us keep going.  In short: all things are possible when you share Christensen's philosophy that Believing is Seeing."

Bev Doolittle

 Bev Doolittle is synonymous with the word "camouflage art."  nevertheless, it has always been the stories and ideas behind Bev's art which have intrigued and challenged her the most, remaining adamant that her use of camouflage is a means to an end (to slow down the viewing and storytelling process) and not an end in itself.  Always and innovator, Bev has created a new, interactive format in visual storytelling.  And she's even added a new twist to the use of "camouflage" to slowly reveal a hidden message.
