PAIGE KISSINGER

"Revelation" Glass on watercolor by Paige Kissinger $2.3M

My one of a kind creations are bold. As I work in glass and other media I concentrate on each design by exploring the psychology of color, sketching patterns, sculpting textures and experimenting with light. My inspiration has developed from exposure to Italian culture and European influences. My father, a modern architect and a successor of Mies van der Rohe, exposed me to the Bauhaus Movement, dance and seeing the details. Saturated color, transparency, and movement are signature in my work.

SANDRA SMITH

"A New Path" Mixed Media by Sandra Smith $5M

 A full spectrum of emotion, drama, and passion flow in my creative narratives. My works often show the evolution of change and growth with strong before and after sentiments. The unfolding of change through time is an essential variable of my work. Several elements and mediums are used to tell this story through my art; including found objects, fabrics, notions, trims, metal, wood, acrylic paint, oil pastels and more. This narrative is subtly revealed through layers and then dramatically pronounced in boldness, juxtaposition, and irreverent combination of texture, pattern, and color that travels through the intertwining of mixed mediums.

LINDA STEPP

“The First” Mixed Media by Linda Stepp $1M

My work is unique in that each box tells the death story of a Christian martyr as a way of honoring them. My goal is to capture that special moment when they transition from death to eternal life. I incorporate movement and electricity to bring each martyr’s story to life. As a descendant of a long line of Kentucky folk art craftsmen, my parents and grandparents were my first influences. Using household items, fabric, jewelry parts and odd finds gives my work a folksy free flowing style reminiscent of my ancestors’ art.

Owner/Artist

"Bliss" Mixed Media with Kudu horn by Sharon Yeh $20M

My artwork is whimsical, free-flowing, bold, colorful, and full of life. All of my work has one ​recurring motif, the shofar. A shofar is a trumpet, typically fashioned out of an animal horn. Incorporating the shofar adds interest, texture, and sound. There is at least one soundable shofar on each work of art. I will incorporate just about anything into my work, but I frequently bring into play found objects, glass, impasto, epoxy resin, and gilding. My three-dimensional paintings and sculptures are fiercely creative and thought provoking taking one as far as the mind will allow.
