My creations are handmade and one-of-a-kind, with unique vintage elements carefully handpicked from antique markets in France. In designing my creations I combine vintage elements with modern material creating eclectic, elegant and playful pieces, recalling days gone by. http://www.perleamies.com
My work is a series of doodles chronicling the adventures of my robot, monster, and animal friends as they deal with the hardships of life, love, and loss in a two-dimensional world. When they are kind enough to sit still for a pose, I bring their many triumphs and travails to life with acrylics on stretched canvas. Visit my Etsy page
Most of my pieces are the oldest and most basic form of art. Drawings. They range from detailed color renderings to quick sketches that somtimes capture more than the more labored illustration. They focus on people, periods of time and pieces of nature. Each is imbued with an interesting twist or interpretation that reaffirms the power of the pencil for communicating a certain cachet that the camera can't capture and the average onlooker might not catch. From cave to canvas it all starts here... with the drawing. http://www.brettghall.com 713-557-2954
Mod-Tops
We are dedicated to finding a new life for discarded objects. We rescue and upcycle broken, used and discarded pallets, give them some tender loving care and create unique pieces of art for your home. After deconstructing and refinishing the pallets from all over the world, we combine different colored pieces to create a random pattern of hardwoods and pine. We finish our pieces off with a ""bar top"" shine and glossy finish that enhances the wood's natural beauty. We create furniture (coffee tables, night stands, benches, headboards) with mid-century hair pin legs as well as Texas inspired wall hangings. . www.mod-tops.com 832-499-1063

Watercolor Expressions by Mike Vollmer
I have been painting watercolors seriously since 1984. My initial passion was to paint landscapes and explore texture methods in watercolor. Since 2000, I have been interested in prophetic art after seeing it done as a part of worship during church.
713-550-3304
Currently I am generating abstract, expressionist paintings using primarily acrylics as my tool of experimentation. Toss a Pop Art influence into the mix to round out what impacts my style. Mixed media is an increasing influence with many works incorporating plaster, copper wire, organic elements - sand, salt, rock, glass as well as print media. A few even include a favourite old shirt to worn to wear again. My art is diverse in subject and is extremely colorful and textural. It should provoke more than one sense in you.

I am a landscape and nature photographer living in Houston, Texas. My goal is to seek out inspiring rural locations and subjects, either natural or man-made, and capture them with the medium of photography to create fine art of the highest quality. http://www.herschbachphotography.com 713-454-9468
My paintings are based from direct observation. I take my French easel out into the city I call home, Houston TX. The subject matter, although always changing, is often the confluence of what I love about Houston; it's buildings, bayous, highways, tree lined streets and lush parks and gardens. I hope you can see the beauty of Houston in my Urban Landscapes. 713-305-6626 http://deatlyart.com
The basis for my love of photography has always been the belief that each photograph is a memory - a reminder of a particular place and a certain time. Whether it is a flower in my backyard or a landmark in a foreign destination, each image represents part of my past, my history. http://www.emgimages.com
Michelle Macy
My artwork is all about passion! Passion for nature, colors and life! My color palette is influenced by Impressionism, my emotions by Expressionism and my style by abstraction. My influences are Van Gogh, for his passionate use of impasto, Georgia O'Keefe for her stylized portrayal of nature and Pierre Bonnard for his phenomenal use of color. My inspiration is the sea, florals and the intuitive expression of emotions.
Shadow boxes - A shallow rectangular box with a transparent front used to protect and display small items. A lot of creativity goes into making shadow boxes. I use found objects, personal mementos, imagination and various media.

Michelle Turner of Turner Studio Pottery
Howdy ya'll. I'm Michelle Turner, a native Texan from La Grange, Texas and now a local Houston ceramic artist. I have two very different lines of ceramic art. The first is my collection of playful, bright and modern contemporary castings. I use found objects and give them a new life as functional household utensils and decor such as sugar bowls and oil bottles. I love the stories of the everyday objects in our lives and how we cling to the sentimental value of what could have been someone else's trash. I also have a line of decorative raku--fired sculpture and home decor pieces. Many of these have marks made by horsehair and feathers. Some are inspired by snippets of a dream and others from faded childhood memories. Many of my sculptures are figurative and include screen-printing on clay. I hope you enjoy these pieces as much as I enjoyed creating them. http://turner-studio.com
In creating my pieces, I want viewers to feel them as much as they see them. I combine realistic images with the elemental use of color and texture. I strive to induce a feeling that renders words somewhat inadequate.
