Andrea Shear lives and works in Los Angeles, California. Working mostly in ink, watercolor and oil paint Shear creates cryptic imagery conveying a sense of longing and sentimentality that represent parts of a larger narrative. As a mother of two, she is especially interested in exploring themes surrounding the wonder of nature and childhood emotion and experience. Shear studied at Oxford Brookes University in England and at the New York School of Visual Arts. Upon returning to Los Angeles, Andrea worked in the visual effects industry and eventually returned to design drawing and painting.

Emily Casares is a contemporary painter and ceramic artist living in Orange County, California. Nature, spirituality, and the human figure are often at the center her work. Casares is usually unintentionally but repeatedly driven by her own self-reflection– it draws on the parallels of the wild and chaotic elements of nature and the zaniness of the human mind.
