John Sarra received his MFA in painting from Washington University in St. Louis in 1997, where is currently teaches as Senior Lecturer in Painting. His paintings are influenced by travel, a six-year apprenticeship as a custom woodworker, and nine years of intensive home repair and restoration. He is also influenced by the methodology and philosophy of Chinese gardens.

Shiloh, Illinois artist Aunia Kahn portrays herself in many of her artworks. She combines digital photography, painting, and collage to create movie-like stills of elegant decadence and varied taboo. View more of her work at her website.

Eun Yeong Jeong is a metals artist based in Champaign, Illinois. She has studied contemporary jewelry making at Alchimia in Florence, Italy, and fine art at Kon-Kuk University in South Korea. Jeong uses organic materials including wool, wood, sand, and plants to create beautiful, delicate objects. Of her work, she states, "My jewelry investigates the mystery of creation, capturing the moment in which the void and fragment become substance." Visit Jeong's website for examples of her work.
