Stacey Ilyse is an abstract mixed media artist from Northern NJ (30 mins outside NYC). Her work reflects her 90's childhood with vibrant, neon colors, reminding her of the days of matching hot pink bike shorts and oversized t-shirts with graphic patterns. Stacey's work is often done in a square format, both on canvas and watercolor paper. The canvas is usually resin coated to bring bright, vivid colors to life. Regardless of the size, her work as a mixed media artist focuses on using a combination of acrylic paints because of the bright, vibrant colors they can produce, along with incorporating gold foil, India ink, stones, and sometimes recycled paper items into the artwork to give it an added layer of depth and texture.

Stacey's inspiration comes from many things, but mostly from her daughters. Often taking a nod from designs or symbols they like, such as hearts and stars, or inspired by the youthfulness her girls bring to her life.

Stacey says, "Picking up my brush each day encourages my daughters to continue to create their art and to set an example of how important it is to pursue the things you love throughout every stage of your life."

Michelle Daly-Padron believes in fluidity, in life and in art. She is grounded by water, nature, and a drive to never remain static. Her work conveys a sense of motion, and spans multiple mediums, from drawings and paintings to photography and mixed-media. Her pieces have been shown in galleries across the Northeast, including Makers Alley in her hometown of Frenchtown, NJ; Union Coffee in Lambertville, NJ; Scrambled in New Hope, PA; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NY.  

Michelle was exposed to art at a young age, learning from her mother, a Cuban artist who worked with charcoal, oil, and watercolor. She then received further encouragement and guidance from her high school art teachers, as she honed her skills and followed her creative passion.

As a creative and passionate artist, she was greatly influenced by the abstract art movement and the work of well-known artists like Pablo Picasso, Georgia O’Keeffe, Joan Miró, and Alfred Stieglitz. This inspired her to pursue in a degree course in Advertising, Marketing, and Graphic Design where she could bring her passions for art and design together.

Michelle balances her career as an artist with a career as a Studio Production Director—and her most important role as a wife and mother to three young girls. She supports many causes within the LGBTQ+, youth, and athlete communities and volunteers her time helping non-profits with their business challenges. Her ambition is to open her own studio and use it as a way to help people learn how to communicate their feelings in a way that elicits positive emotions from themselves as well as others.

"I have no choice. Art is healing. Art gives us an opportunity to be truthful, honest, and transparent, without judgment or qualification. It is a true expression of who we are at that point in time. It allows us to move forward and look back simultaneously and by healing ourselves art allows us to heal all- so I create because I have no choice."

Jason Moss is an emergent multifaceted artist from Pottstown, PA. Currently, residing in Berks County. He is the founder of the Jason Moss Experience, Co-founder of the Reading Artist’s Collective, published author of “That Damn Cookbook”, former host of “That Damn Cooking Show”, as well as creator of The Indigo Experience. He is a painter, sculptor, and wearable art designer.  He is successfully and continuously a recovering alcoholic and drug addict as well as a dedicated father of 5.

Jason’s philosophy is simple; art is nourishment for the consciousness of the soul. Art is about passion, spiritual and personal growth, and seeing beauty in the chaos of everyday life. With passion, intensity, and empathy; not needing more than what is needed, just enough; Moss approaches his art like he does his life. 

Letting the vibrant colors and textures direct and inspire to convey the brutal emotion of the subject matter, he intuitively translates the relationship between the artist and the medium. His art is transformative. Jason shares his own experiences with addiction and mental illness, through failure and redemption by exploring brutally honest bold colors and vibrant erotic textures. He exposes the brilliant lights and the darkest truths and allows each piece to complete its evolutionary journey to fulfillment. 

Each layered and textured piece is an explorative visual and emotional detox. Through utilizing repurposed and deconstructed materials for paintings, sculptures, and wearable art he is metaphorically repurposing trauma and growth into a visual journey of healing.

The inner battle of the creative mind is depicted with the use of vivid colors and raw energetic images. The subtle use of shades and hues bring dimension and depth onto the surface of the canvas. Movement is the best way to describe the creative process.. The combination of mixed mediums results in a spontaneous convulsion of creative energy. My whole process is raw and unrefined but elegant.
