Sally Pettus | Visual Artist

Redesigned Sally Pettus website. Sally works in many media: oil, pastel, graphite, collage, faux finish, gilding, and bronze. Since the mid 70’s, her art has focused primarily on images depicting the natural world. It is clear that she does not follow any one idea, making the artistic totality of the work difficult to pin down. In 2000, she discovered the challenges of bronze sculpture, and have continued to find its properties well suited to this way of seeing. Change, for me, keeps her subjects alive.

Mady Berry | Fashion and Textile Design

Mady is a storyteller, creating her own reality by means of humor, hyperbole and disguise. Her work aims to be approachable, yet beneath the surface suggesting feelings of unease. She is interested in how a garment can create a mysticism surrounding the wearer and how something familiar can be presented in a foreign or unfamiliar way. Through fabric and texture manipulation, whether it is knitting, beading, shredding she gives her garments a life of their own. Firstly, she is a painter. The process of translating her paintings to fabric is an important facet of her practice. She does this through screen-printing and painting directly on the fabric with dyes. She aims to create an imaginative world, which transforms reality.

Richard Sober | American Painter and Poet

One of the finest painters and poets I have ever known approached me to rebuild his existing website, staying true to the original design with tweaks to it's user interface and creating individual pages for each painting, currently numbering 225.
