Lisa draws inspiration from those times alone on her bike, making connections with the environment, and from time living in the Santa Cruz Mountains."I commit to my muses most fully - to places and people and moments - alone, atop a sentimental tore-up seat on a strong blue Bianchi without any kind of a plan."

Previous Artist: Ann McBurney (4)
Ann’s been drawing and painting for work and pleasure since forever, yet she’s new to working with oil. For us she chose to evoke the romance and passion of cycling by revisiting commercial bicycle art from the turn of the last century. In using oil Ann finds the striking graphics and colorful images of these vintage designs made new again. Much as she feels when riding a bike – “like a kid again”!

Previous Artist: Emily Alice Peck (5)
As with her art, Emily works with her hands doing some remodeling and carpentry work. For these pieces, “the canvas is built of wood, using a plaster/fresco base, color oil pastels, acrylic, oil, milk and clay paints. The lines are etched, and finished with layers of wax.” For Emily, “the hands are connected to the heart.”

Previous Artist: Tess Corrinne Jordan (3)
Tess describes her work as an exploration of the way memory changes with each layer of recollection. Some things clear, others blurred. These works explore memories of September in Canova, South Dakota: forgotten bicycles in the yard, the sheen of a harvest apple.
