Austin based artist Greg Pettit has been painting in a variety of mediums since 2006, primarily working with airbrushed acrylics since 2016. Greg's paintings synthesize his love for rhythm, pattern, and movement merged with his life-long interest in dream states and observations of the natural world. These influences together toggle the line between representational and abstracted spaces and forms.

His process incorporates sculptural references, photography, and stencil design as a means of developing his painting ideas.

“My compositions are usually determined by narrowing in on some satisfying and unpredictable moment in a still-life set up I've created. I collect mundane objects, strip them down and paint them, and reassemble them into novel forms and environments. By decontextualizing my references I free them from any outer meaning or purpose. They function as a surrogate for me to impregnate with my own subconscious language. The objects provide enough in terms of lighting and corporeal form for me to add a sense of realism into what I do that would be harder to arrive at purely out of the imagination.

I feel like this process gives me an avenue to explore the rhythmic, patterned structures that underpin natural form and human design, as if our brains urge us to create things that conform to the design principles of nature.”

Kyle Saldaña is a multidisciplinary artist whose work includes sculpture, painting, and digital design. His practice involves oil and acrylic painting, pen-plotting, 3D-printed works, and Arduino-driven projects. He enjoys working in vastly opposing mediums to explore where processes intersect, and vice versa.

Kristi Brooks (b.2002) is a painter with a BFA from the University of Texas at Austin.

I consider myself a chronically nostalgic person, often yearning for comforting moments from the past that hold precious stories. The concept of freezing moments in time is both my primary goal and motivation, and I rely on the visual language of photography to translate this feeling into my paintings. I’m drawn to images that exist in in-between spaces which offer subtle hints towards mood, sound, or even temperature. I hold these memories and faces close to my heart, and I hope that you, as the viewer, can find comfort in exploring my paintings.

Lenora Pousland (b. 1999, Burlington, Vermont) is a painter based in Austin, Texas. She began studying painting at the age of eight and has never questioned her path as an artist. From 2019 to 2021 she attended Paris College of Art, focusing on painting, and she now lives and works in Austin, continuing to expand her practice.

Pousland says: "I attempt to make painting a place where light, memory, and movement converge with technology and desire. Motifs emerge from fleeting moments, invasive thoughts, and polished digital imagery, suspended within a liminal space. In this space, the work traces the shifting boundary between the organic and the contrived, questioning how digital culture reshapes both identity and perception. Together, these elements blur and overlap, echoing the complexities of the modern human experience."
