Thursday, October 16: Rachel Coleman
Fluid Art

My name is Rachel Coleman of Shy Fox Studio and I am a fluid artist from Chester County, PA. After experiencing a trauma and seeking help, it was suggested that I practice using the right side of my brain by doing something creative, so I tried a few different mediums, but when I found fluid art, I was hooked! The way I could manipulate colors on a canvas was mesmerizing. I lost all sense of time, anxiety, and I was present for the first time in a long time. Fast forward four years later and now it is my career! I'm so grateful for coming out of the dark and finding my passion. The biggest gift is being able to share my work with others.

Thursday, October 30: Tricia Flaherty
Acrylic Art

While raising my family, I worked with acrylics, painting on old, discarded items. As my life afforded me more time, I began painting seriously with oils and found what was then my creative calling. Now I have become enamored with alcohol ink, glass mosaics, and collage. My interests are always open to new and unique mediums.
