Who Are We?

 Lia has spent her lifetime depicting animals and country scenes in a wide variety of mediums, honing in on relief prints and oil paintings over the last 5 years. Her passion for printmaking follows her from her day job in silk screening to her home studio full of linocuts hanging to dry, and when she’s not there she’s outside enjoying plein air painting her rural Maryland stomping grounds.

Joe’s love of photography started at a young age and has evolved into chasing stunning effects on his self-modified infrared camera and a huge variety of filters. Obsessive research, experimentation, and his artistic eye have enabled him to produce enchanting images that are unlike any other photographer’s. By capturing a light spectrum that is invisible to our naked eyes but present all around us, Joe can show you the way things feel, not just the way they look.
