About the Artist
Artist Mary Beatty-Brooks finds endless inspiration in nature, often creating still lifes of her flowers and plants. "Whatever I paint is usually inspired by light, space, movement, color, and the way things grow," says Mary. She studied Fashion Figure Drawing in college before transitioning to General Illustration and later earning a graduate degree in Biomedical Illustration. After a 29-year career as a medical illustrator, graphic designer, and photographer, she returned to painting. Her studio, often cluttered, overlooks the woods and her bird feeders, with her dog, Buddy, keeping her company while she works. When not making art, Mary enjoys gardening, walking in nature, and spending time near the ocean. In the summer, she does face painting and henna tattoos at a local amusement park.

A glowing still life of sunflowers and wildflowers arranged on a rich blue backdrop. Artist Jeff Fleming describes his painting style as kinetic impressionism. Jeff started the piece with a pencil sketch on the canvas, then with gloved hands, he generously applied oil paint using his fingers. Jeff says he created this scene purely from imagination.
About the Artist
Artist Jeff Fleming uses fingerpainting to create exuberant portraits of dogs. Growing up in Southern California, Jeff was first introduced to fingerpainting in kindergarten. He painted through high school and college and won several art awards, including Best of Show in a city wide student competition. After graduating with a degree in journalism and advertising, he went to work as an art director. For the next 40 years, he created print, radio and television ads for a number of top agencies. "After retiring in 2019, the clouds of stress and pressure cleared and allowed me to set my creative energy free," says Jeff. He began developing new techniques focused on the excitement and energy of painting. Today, he uses a variety of methods and tools, including fingerpainting wearing nitrile gloves, traditional paint brushes, bamboo shish kebab sticks, kite string, spraypaint and splattering. While working, Jeff always listens to music, including Broadway musicals, dance music and rhythmic Hawaiian tunes.
