I enjoy working in a wide variety of media and currently my main focus has been creating jewelry redesigns (altered art). I greatly enjoy redesigning jewelry as finding just the right components to collage together into one-of-a-kind pieces is exciting! Another focus is embossed metal art (repujado). Working in 36 gauge metal sheets, I emboss my linear designs which I then embolden with blocks of bright enamel paint. I developed this bold style of embossed metal from the idea to keep the designs clear and colorful which results in a stained glass quality in its simplicity. My favorite motifs include the sun, sunflower, and heart. It makes me happy when my work brings happiness to others!

Jack Comeaux
My work is Neo-expressionist in nature. I work in Oil Pastel on top of a gouache underpainting. The supports are either paper (framed) or masonite panel on 1 1/2" stretcher bars. I am building a more "market friendly" friendly body of work as some of my earlier pieces are a bit raw and personal.

For nearly a decade, artist Pettus Mitchell has traveled around the United States gleaning inspiration for his future works as well as displaying his art at local festivals and art galleries. His paintings run the gamut from historical portraits of the African Americans migration north in the 1940s to their current return to the modern south. Some of his pieces are inspired by cultural phenomena specific to the late 20th century, such as the popularity of video games and the rise of the digital era. Pettus himself is an accomplished graphic artist; he is also a CGI animator. His work is prominently featured at the Center for Southern Folklore and he is a mainstay at the Center’s annual Memphis Music & Heritage Festival. Mitchell made his first appearance at First Saturday Arts Market in March 2011.

Regina Parkinson
Most of my work is medium to large scale acrylic, oil pastel, or mixed media inspired by nature with a modern edge. While pieces range from whimsical to abstract, they generally incorporate a high contrast pallette and texture created by layering either paper, modeling paste or paint. I work to evoke a sense of joy or a feeling of connection to flora and fauna. It has been referred to as "happy art".

With her love of nature, it is only fitting that Michelle's designs are a direct reflection of nature. Her pieces combine the elements and textures of nature with the use of natural stone, fine silver, sterling and copper often combined with found natural objects like acorns and twigs. Michelle says, "It can happen anywhere. A uniquely shaped leaf, a twig, or an acorn on the ground and I am transported to a place in my mind that I cannot ignore. Until that piece of nature finally is transformed into a piece of jewelry I obsess." “How do I make this wearable art, give it movement, balance, a new life? Should it be a fantastical piece or a piece that can be lived in everyday. I challenge myself to find a way to design a work that eternalizes that fleeting perfect moment in nature with a stylish timelessness.
