Faye Hill
The two most important things in my life are God and family. Having faith and love captures the beauty of life around us. Family is a special gift from God. It is what who we are, and where we came from. Nature captures the essence of creation of beauty of the landscapes and for every blossom there is hope, peace, and love. I have a Bachelor's degree in Art at the University of Texas, San Antonio. I enjoy creating styles slightly derived from the Flemish and Victorian era of paintings. In the Flemish style, vibrant localized colors are emphasized. In the Victorian side style, the accent and the harmony of colors as well as the way the subjects are positioned on the canvas are clearly seen on many of my floral and still life paintings.

The land/sky is merely a foil for painting light, with a meditative feel that makes us “want to be there.” His signature includes a stylized representation of the blood clot that caused a stroke in 2011. The Indiana native holds a Master’s Degree in Structural Engineering from Purdue University.

Evan Saenger
My paintings are inspired by the thought that all the world is abstract. I believe that what I understand about the world around me is minimal. Look closer at something considered “common” and a whole verdant trove of fresh discovery is waiting. I think of my paintings as my own person rebellion against the trap of being lethargic and bored in a world as boundlessly beautiful as ours.
Jack Krietzburg
Jack was born and raised in Southern California, his ancestors among those noted for settling Santa Monica when orange groves not boardwalks was the stock and trade. Spending 29 years in Las Vegas, Jack put his artistic nature into a successful commercial printing company. Upon selling the company in 1998, Jack and his wife Sharon moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. A five-year endeavor into designing custom wood screened doors reignited his passion for painting. Jack entered, showed and sold his paintings in many venues across New Mexico.

I strive to creatively express light and mood in my paintings and continue to study art at the Coppini Academy of Fine Arts.

I am a member of the Boerne Professional Artists and the Coppini Academy of Fine Arts.
Marcus A. Cerda
My synthetic cubist paintings are like a stream of consciousness, which starts with a collage of randomly placed pieces and textures. The universe is broken down into colors and shapes via the rationale that it is comprised of circles and right angles; I paint while remaining consciously aware of color blocking and shapes. This collage style of synthetic cubism challenges and strengthens my sense of aesthetics. The cubist paintings depict the mundane in a colorful, vibrant, and transparent way, by expressing movement in the mundane objects as frenetic textural juxtaposition of shape, pattern, and color. I have developed an interconnection of self and the environment that space and time are interdependent and intermingled.

Cody Vance
My abstract sculptures, in stone and steel, have been described as water-like, flowing and liquid, or as if someone had scooped into the stone like ice cream. As a whole my sculpture work ranges from ribbon-like abstracts to classically inspired figures, bas-relief and whimsical characters; they draw the viewer in, whispering, inviting to come closer. I retired from the Air Force in 2010 after 24 years of fun and currently work as a Medical Illustrator in San Antonio. I’m a member of the Texas Sculpture Group, Texas Society of Sculptors, San Antonio Art League & Museum, and Air Force Art Program.

Sarah Mills Bailey
A native of New Orleans, Sarah Mills Bailey studied microbiology at LSU and at the graduate level, at Tulane University. Her artistic endeavors began as crafting household décor. Using paint and fabric, she applied color as a means of highlighting visual perception of form. Fabric then became the medium, but again the tool was color, along with texture, as she juxtaposed aspects of both in her designs. It was a natural progression to the elemental of abstract art, narrowing the focus to color itself, becoming not just the tool but the object of perception. Sarah lives in San Antonio with her husband and daughters.
