Jamie Daniels, Spystress
Jamie Daniels makes jewelry from recycled records. She grew up in Rhode Island and lived in Kansas City for a few years before deciding she needed to move to the West Coast. She is inspired here in a community that is eco-friendly and supportive of artists. She loves being creative with unlikely materials. After a silversmithing course, she stumbled upon a unique "found" material to use in place of sheet metal. She says, "It's easy to make pretty things out of brand new stuff. BUT, it is way more interesting to make one-of-a-kind items using salvaged material."

Julie Bramman, nudge
To her mother's chagrin, as a child Julie Bramman stashed paper under her bed, saving scraps to create books, cards, and games. A one-time student of art and printing, now a current student of library science, Julie combines these interests to create art from discarded library books and scrap paper (paper sample books, atlases, maps, and tissue boxes are faves). She loves her paper crafting tools and is happiest when punching tags. A single parent of two lovely daughters, Julie retains a ridiculous stash of paper that she uses for creating cards and gift tags.

Linda Womack, Linda Womack Designs
Linda Womack loves to take photographs and use them in unconventional ways!
Her work pairs modern digital photography with the ancient technique of encaustic painting in which beeswax, resin and pigment are layered to produce a deep, translucent surface that captures and reflects light. She often collages other materials into the wax medium, including dried plants, natural fibers, and handmade paper. Linda also teaches workshops in wax painting techniques at her studio in SE Portland. Her award-winning work can be seen in galleries throughout the United States, and on HGTV's urban craft show, "That's Clever!"
