$<h1>Renate Brady - Artist</h1><p><span class="\"\\"link\\"\"">renatebrady@centruytel.net</span></p><p>Born and raised in Frankfurt, Germany, Renate now lives in Columbia, Missouri where she maintains her studio. Renate received her Bachelor of Science degree in arts and graphic design from Columbia College in Columbia, Missouri in 1980.</p><p>Renate studied under Sidney Larson at Columbia College. Larson, who was both a student and friend of Thomas Hart Benton, is a muralist, historian, and art Conservator. Under Larson’s direction she painted a 22 foot mural of a rural landscape for the District Government Building across from a Thomas Hart Benton painting.</p><p>“There has always been a desire within me to be creative, whether I was painting or designing a logo for a corporate image.” After a long career in commercial art, she decided to fulfill her dream and devote more time to her paintings, focusing on both regional and international subject matter and allowing herself to appeal to a diverse audience. Her style came from her graphic arts background.</p><p>“I always loved the feel of paper, and choosing to paint on paper rather than canvas was consequently an obvious decision.” Her medium includes pastels, watercolor, acrylic, pen and ink. Color, whether brilliant or subtle, is the element that drives her to create. Her work reflects nature in natural and abstract forms. All works make an open statement to the viewer, and are filled with feelings, sensations,and vibrant bold colors.</p><p>Renate’s work has received numerous awards in many juried and invitational exhibits, local and regional.</p><p>Her work is represented at Ayers-Too Gallery, Hannibal, MO, the Atkins Gallery, Columbia, MO, including there Community Exhibits Program.</p><p>Renate’s paintings are included in public, corporate, and private collections throughout the country and Germany. Primarily she does commissioned paintings for private collectors.</p>$

$<h1>BARBARA SCOTT DAWDY</h1> BScottDawdy@gmail.com <p>My parents would probably tell you that my fascination with mud began at a very early age. I spent hours in the yard mushing together “master sculptures.” My poor parents also encouraged my fores into dance, theatre, vocal music and photography.</p> <p>While earning a B.A. in English at a small, liberal arts college in the early 1990s, I “<i>found myself</i>” in literature, philosophy, creative writing, and photography...and fell in love with the art and craft of ceramics.</p> <p>My writing and design skills helped me land my first PR job in 1996. I moved from Jefferson City to Portland, Ore. shortly thereafter, where I completed my master’s degree in organizational management.</p> <p>Blessed with a successful career as a sales and marketing executive, I never lost my sense of <i>play</i>. My passion for the performing arts, the written word, photography, design and ceramics, was never exhausted.</p> <p>This sense of playfulness often comes through in my work, as does my fascination with the exploration of one’s <i>spiritual journey, </i>or <i>inner </i>life. My work is mindful. It is ever-evolving out of the complex influences shaping my discovery of self through reflection and meditation.</p> <p>I am drawn to the mystery and power of symbolism and the study of ancient and emerging belief systems and cultures. I am fascinated by the mysteries of life and the power of faith, prayer and intention. I believe in the power of presence – of connection – both with the medium itself and the people we are able to touch in this life.</p><p><img src="%5C%22%5C%22images/stories/barbarascottdawdy.jpg%5C%22%5C%22" alt="\"\\"\\"\""> <br></p>$

$<h1>James Crow</h1> <span class="\"\\"link\\"\"">jjcrow@wildblue.net</span><p>James Crow, a native of St. Louis, has lived in central Missouri for over three decades and has been an artist and teacher for most of that time. He holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of Missouri in Printmaking and Drawing, but enjoys working in various media. In addition to etchings, stone lithographs and monotypes, he works in oils, watercolors and pastels. Much of the subject matter for his work comes from landscapes and cityscapes found locally. He has been with Lincoln University of Missouri since 2005, and teaches a variety of two-dimensional art courses. Teaching and making art are labors of love for Crow because, as he says, “Nobody goes into teaching…or the field of art, for that matter, to get rich. You have to love it.”</p>$

$<h1>Ann DeRosier <span class="\"link\""> </span></h1><p><span class="\"link\"">missphoebe@embarqmail.com</span></p> <p>A native of mid-Missouri, Ann DeRosier grew up with the influences of her European ancestors on her thinking and her artwork. The architecture, home artwork, and teaching from various schools stressed traditional basics in thought and artistic expression. A strong belief in the importance of good drawing skills has laid the foundation for her work in any media. However, through her own development and understanding, the element of expression of the soul has taken on a more important role. With the technical basics of the elements and principles of art, one can then be free to express the innermost meanderings of the mind in color and other experimentations. Currently she is exploring Missouri landscapes and other scenes of nature.</p> Ann has received a B.S. in art, a teaching certificate, and a Master’s degree. She has taught elementary, college, and is currently teaching at Jefferson City High School. Ann has painted professionally since 1976, specializing in portraiture. She teaches pastel workshops in the summers and often throughout the year and has a studio in her home.$

$<h1>TERRY MARTIN</h1><p><span class="\"link\"">www.williamwoodsart.com</span><span class="\"link\""><br>tmartin@williamwoods.edu</span> </p><p>My name is Terry Martin; I am an artist and teacher. I have taught at William Woods University since 1988. Preparation for my present work included, being a graduate student, teaching assistant, instructor and gallery assistant for the University of Missouri Columbia. Other valuable life experiences before I became an art professor include: public school art teacher (grades 7-12), art director, illustrator, commercial artist, designer, and volunteer in various art therapy settings. I am a signature member of the National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society, The International Society of Experimental Artists, Best of Missouri Hands, and a member of the Mid America Pastel Society and the Missouri Watercolor Society. Other valuable experiences include: past board member of the St.Louis Artists Guild, and the Columbia Art League. I was an early participant in the Plein Air traveling painters: Artist’ Along the KATY Trail. Commercial projects include painted murals for Jefferson City Council Chamber, other large paintings for Fulton Building, William Woods Kemper Art Ctr., YUM Brands Foods, Louisville KY, and a volunteer effort to donate a contemporary version of the Last Supper for Pleasant Hill Free Methodist Church, near Portland, Missouri. I advocate for organizations such as Capital Arts that have the potential to bring people together, and celebrate creativity differences among individuals in a no judgmental society. When people recognize individual creative difference, other differences that are often surface differences, may not matter so much. When we celebrate creative worth and contribution to society, we all are more united and respectful as a community.</p>$

$<h1>Bob Colvin</h1> <span class="\"link\"">colvinsphotography@embarqmail.com</span> <p>Colvin, a Jefferson City native, first began taking pictures as a way to document where he was and what he was doing. After a trip to Yellowstone National Park in the late 1980s, his hobby grew into more than a pastime when he realized the limitations with the equipment he was using.</p> <p>Through self teaching, workshop training and local classes, he has since traveled the country and the world photographing images that captures his love of the outdoors and his passion for preserving our natural world. Bob Colvin’s travels, love of wildlife, and nature come to life in his photography.</p>$
