Pop-Up with featured artists:
Hailey Glass is an illustrator & mixed media artist living in downtown Denton, Tx. Her work is heavily nature inspired and juxtaposes bold color & line work with the free flowing edges of the natural world. Drawn to the details that some don't see, she takes pride in the slow meditative pace in which she works, curving every line with tact & layering colors with fun thoughtfulness. She has a focus on design and showcasing imaginative versions of the world she, and all of us experience. To contact, commission or collaborate email haileylynnglass@gmail.com
My name is Haris Feratovic. I'm a partially colorblind artist born and raised in Coppell Texas. At times I check the labels on my paints, or don't, and just see what happens. Each subject is completely random, it can be me testing myself with something like a tiger, or it can be raw emotion pushed onto a canvas by my fingers. I use oil paint with my fingers, brushes, and palette knives. Each piece is a challenge since I have never taken an art class. I started a year ago, and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. I'm a graduate of UNT with a psychology degree pursuing physical therapy, althought at the moment I work and try to experience life as much as possible.
