Colleen Webster

A signature member of the Western North Carolina Plein Air Painters, Colleen Webster was awarded the Regional Artist Project Grant in 2003. She paints en plein air, working exclusively in oil.. In her own words,"The outdoors is my studio, a place for long visual meditations that coincide with brushstrokes. Painting for me not only reflects nature but responds to it. I cannot simply paint nature for I find myself interactingwith it, afftecting by it and changed by it."

 

 

Jesse Lee

 
 
 
 
Jesse Lee's beautiful mirrors and metal wall hangings incorporate copper, reclaimed barn shingle, ceiling tile, aluminum siding, and "just about anything I can cut with hand shears and get a small nail to hold down" Jesse finds inpiration from nature and the history behind each piece of metal he uses. His work is ever evolving and he is glad to create custom pieces.
