Amy Genser
Amy Genser plays with paper and paint to explore her fascination and obsession with texture, pattern, and color. Evocative of natural forms and organic processes, her work is both irregular and ordered. She constructs her pieces by layering, cutting, rolling, and combining paper. Amy uses paper as pigment.
The sources of her work are from the natural world. She is fascinated by the ow of water, the organization of beehives, and the organic irregularity of plants, owers, rock formations, barnacles, moss, seaweed, aerial views of our landscape, satellite imagery, and biological cellular processes.Amy's work has been published in several books and publications on paper art. Her work is included in private and public collections.

Katrina Doran
Katrina Doran fell in love with making mosaics when her high school teacher brought tesserae to class. The pieces called to Katrina to t them together and produce something beautiful. She loved the process. Then Katrina grouted the piece and love turned to hate.
Eventually Katrina threw the piece away. Her father took the mosaic out of the trash and gave it back to her. Katrina threw the piece away again and her father retrieved it again. After a few more rounds of this it dawned on her that she was not listening to her story. “I am so grateful to my father for knowing this was a signi cant part of who I am.”
“I absolutely love seeing how a mixture of objects, thoughts and collaborations come together as my expression of the world. These expressions bring me joy and delight those who are drawn to my work.”
