JessBecauseArtCoArt Originally inspired by vintage travel posters, I love the way they made the destination feel extra special. My drawings feature our local places with a little bit of that “travel poster” magic. I call my style “polished reality” and I create art to capture the feeling and memories created by the special places in all our lives. It’s the little details that make our every day places feel extraordinary.https://jessbecauseartco.com

Katie Flack Painted Dots I create my artwork using high-quality acrylic paints, paintbrushes, and dotting tools on hand-selected rocks and canvases. My process is entirely freehand and intuitive, meaning I do not outline or sketch my designs beforehand—I allow each piece to evolve naturally.
Without pre-drawing, I begin placing dots allowing the design to flow organically. I build layers, adjusting spacing, size, and symmetry as I go. I seal my artwork with a protective finish to preserve its colors and durability. https://www.etsy.com/shop/KatieFlack
Deer Brush Studios Quirky and fantastical art, cards, books, and earrings. http://deerbrushstudio.com

I am a SW Portland resident, OHSU doctor, BIPOC artist, and a PPS parent of two! My friend Arlene and I have shared a booth at the Rieke Art Fair for the last 2 years and it is our favorite event!
Lulu Ludlum Postcards and Prints of my Analog Collages and my Photographs .www.lululudlum.com
Amy Wing Designs Using techniques such as stamping, casting, hammering & soldering I transform recycled sterling and gold-filled metals into simple and elegant pieces that are both wearable and fashionable. I am inspired by travel to places near and far, and I transform the shapes, colors and textures I see around me into my work. I love creating beautiful, meaningful jewelry inspired by my family, and designed to celebrate the events, large or small, in your life. www.amywing.com
