Susan McDonald
Susan McDonald looks to her surroundings to serve as inspiration for her pieces. Both organic and geometric lines especially catch her interest, such as an unfurled tendril on a stem or the pleasing pattern of texture on the bark of a native tree. In the wearable art she creates, she references the theme of natural adornment through simple and fluid design elements.
Stacey Brown
Stacey's original photography will be featured in a new way through transfer techniques, collage and acrylics. Additional original artwork through encaustic design will also debut at this Peace by Piece.

Pat Collins
Pat Collins creates mixed media art featuring her many stenciled images. She draws inspiration from a variety of sources - roadside billboards & signs, Celtic mythology, current events, pop culture - whatever triggers her imagination. She developed “Handcuts,” which she calls “unique art objects & offbeat artifacts" to apply her images to functional art. Peace by Piece will showcase glassware and glass objects, among them wine glasses and ornaments etched with images by the artist. T-shirts and earrings are also available
Claudia Goode
Claudia Goode is a mostly self-taught mixed media artist, who has been creating art all her life. From hand-painted clothing to mixed media collages, creating things has always been a very important and constant desire in her life. Art infused with sensitivity and mysticism moves her soul.
