Elizabeth King Stanton

Elizabeth weaves quilting motifs into her paintings, capturing scenes from her daily life, most recently focusing on her experience as a mom. In her words, “My days with my daughter are a wonderful blend of contradictions: busy and slow, bold and cautious, unpredictable and repetitive. My recent paintings mirror these contradictions.” Learn more about Elizabeth here.  

Henrik Simonsen

When asked what he does, Henrik says he paints, but he thinks he should say he draws. Drawing is central to his nature scenes—a simple and direct delivery of shape and form, which he coats in washes of color, always leaving bits of the drawing that came before. Learn more about Henrik here.
