CORRIE LAVELLE has always been passionate about art, design, and style. A self-trained ar�st, Corrie feels her life journey has been preparing her for the world of fine art. In 2013 Corrie experienced a personal tragedy. She began exploring mul�-medium art as soul therapy, to encourage her to reclaim her unorthodox sense of art. What started as basement hobby quickly evolved into a shared studio and gallery in Sea�le with three other local ar�sts. Currently Corrie is working with encaus�c paint. Corrie states, “When I’m creating a piece the exterior of my life blurs and my soul moves into focus. I see myself in every piece. Stroke by stroke bits of my life appear. Emotions, experiences, thoughts. One by one they compile onto the board, until a story is created. And when heat is applied to the wax the edges blur, layers are revealed, and I am reminded how beautifully complex life is.”

LIZ JARDINE grew up in New York City, “The best possible place on the planet for a budding young artist.” As an undergraduate student at the State University of New York, Jardine concentrated on tex�le design and clay forms. Upon gradua�on, she appren�ced at various tex�le and design studios in New York City, where her garment designs were sold at several designer bou�ques. Returning to more tradi�onal media, Jardine appren�ced with a graphic design studio and began freelancing as an illustrator and art director. This work paved her return to watercolors in florals, landscapes, s�ll life and abstracts. Today, Jardine flourishes in varied media but especially favors acrylics for their textural and form-building abili�es. Jardine’s apprecia�on for nature inspires her crea�vity. She paints from the heart, and believes her collectors can feel her love of the pigments and the composi�on.

RANDY HIBBERD was born in Hun�ngton Beach, California, and later moved to Phoenix, AZ. Upon gradua�ng from high school, Hibberd enrolled at Arizona State University in Temple, Arizona. A�er his gradua�on in 1994 he channeled his full a�en�on into his pain�ngs. During his first two years of college, Hibberd was an understudy and an appren�ce for two na�onally known ar�sts. Here, hands-on experience helped him realize that pain�ng was what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. As a student, Randy was fascinated by the power of color, and the ability to convey emo�on—even without specific imagery. As his pain�ngs evolved, he explored and experimented, adding more deliberate texture and depth to his pieces. Pain�ng in his own studio since the year 2000, Hibberd has begun to achieve renown as an ar�st. His works can be found in many galleries across the United States, and also in many residen�al and corporate se�ngs.
