Jen Otey
I am a wife, mom, professional artist, and elementary school teacher. I have been showing and publishing art all over the world in galleries, magazines, books, and websites since 2004 and teaching art classes and camps with children since 2005. In 2007 I began hosting workshops with people of all ages. I love bringing people together in the creative process. I truly believe that making art changes the world, because it changes who we are within. "Be the change that you want to see in the world."

Aurora Lucas
Jill-of-all-trades; I’m a mother of 4, wife of 1, and artist/healer/hippy in my soul! We live on a small farm with a huge garden, 7 Donkeys, 2 mini horses, 8 goats, 2 pot-bellied pigs, 2 cats, 3 dogs, and a partridge in a pear tree! I draw most of my inspiration from nature and embrace organic shapes in my pottery pieces. Wonky is wonderful!

Patty Younger
I have spent my life in Southwest Virginia teaching the youth of Wythe County. After obtaining a Batchelors degree in Commercial Art, I substitute taught while I job searched and fell in love with the profession. I began by teaching elementary art and the next year, 1991, I was hired to teach high school. I am still there today. Through college and the military I have explored cathedrals, museums and castles in 5 countries. I still prefer to be in Southwest Virginia with my husband, 2 kids, family and friends.
