| www.mathisfineart.com The landscape paintings of Karen Mathis
portray the interplay of land and water, often featuring shoreline gardens and
boat reflections. Living on one of the coves off the Tred Avon River on the
Eastern Shore of Maryland, she has had a first hand opportunity to experience
the ever-changing personalities of shoreline during all seasons of the year and
times of the day. From the special quality of light at dawn and dusk to the
exciting sparkle of water at midday-all appear in her paintings.

www.anywheregourmet.com/KurtPlinke/ Careful observation and creative interpretation are hallmarks of Kurt Plinke's
artwork and his teaching style. A working artist for over twenty-five years,
Mr. Plinke has developed in his work a personal style and message. This
personal imagery is a continuing thread throughout his art. His work ranges
through scientific illustrations of nature, loose studies of wildlife and
environments, to abstract imagery of nature, man and the human condition.

| www.ZeiglerFineArt.com Website for M. Joyce Zeigler, Oil Painter. Mrs. Zeigler likes to
paint waterfowl and land birds, flower gardens, country scenes and other views
of nature as observed all her life on the Eastern Shore of
Maryland. "Painting has certainly enriched my life. I
find working with color exciting. My object in painting is to combine what I
have seen and experienced in a pleasing way--to capture the essence of the
subject and record it simply."
