I have been intrigued for some time with the idea of alternate realities. My abstract paintings explore depictions of energy manifesting into various forms. Three-dimensional pieces include found and re-purposed items with interesting textures and shapes

Statement:
Being immersed in the intersection of art and nature is a foundational part of my spiritual practice. Creating art, for me, is not just a process of meticulous energy and intention; it is a meditative act and a form of resistance against consumer culture and the pervasive attention economy. I create using a variety of media - primarily watercolor and ink, but also oil, embroidery, collage, and digital media. In my work, I venerate the natural world as a sacred force and celebrate the life-giving power of the female body. Much of the recurring symbolism I use has been inspired by personal life events - the power of pregnancy and birth, psychedelic experiences, growing up within patriarchal religion, and joyful, formative childhood memories. Through the process of engaging in creative work, I seek to explore beauty and interconnectedness while questioning established belief systems and societal norms that often go unexamined

Joplin artist Nancy Erwin immortalizes long-gone area landmarks by painting their "portraits" based on vintage photographs. Not only do these works preserve memories, they also document a way of life that we'll never see again. Born and raised in Joplin, Nancy has been a part of the changes from the 50's era of Joplin to present day. Her love for the landmarks that immortalize this beautiful city are captured on canvas for generations to enjoy.

I make one of a kind jewelry from found objects, re-purposed items, the unusual and unexpected. I am always rummaging through flea markets, antique stores and yard sales looking for treasures to use in my jewelry.

I have loved art since I was a small child. As far back as I can remember, I was always doing something “artsy”. Over the years, I have enjoyed many different mediums, including: Calligraphy, quilt making and fabric arts, repurposing furniture, mixed media and recently, painting. My style comes from the “little girl within me and my goal is simply to make people happy! If my artwork makes you smile, then I’ve succeeded in what I set out to do!

I have always loved art, and studied art in high school and college. Since 1985 I’ve owned & operated an Ad Agency. In all those years, I have designed logos, written jingles, created countless TV and radio commercials and hundreds of videos, but my true love is photography and painting! I have recently begun rediscovering those two mediums. The “little kid” in me who always wanted to be an artist is now doing so. The best part - is doing it with my wonderful wife, Cindy, also an artist!

Splitting my days of childhood between the North shores of Minnesota and hiking through the Rockies, it's safe to say I spent most of my time outdoors. It created a passion for the wilderness and a curiosity in American History. There was always pebbles in my pocket and a pencil or paintbrush in my hand. That hasn't changed in adulthood.
A longing to share what makes my heart sing. On paper, canvas and even on the human body. I'm never more at peace than when I am creating.

Bio: Jesse was born in Carthage, Missouri. Many of his paintings and drawings are in private collections. Some have won prizes and awards in competition. He studied Engineering, Music, Psychology, Writing, and Art. He enjoys working in the Tri-State area for its many talented personable artists and art enthusiasts. He is a charter member of Local Color Art Gallery and Studio in Joplin, Mo and teaches “Memories in the Making” classes for the Alzheimer’s Association at Spiva Center for the Arts in Joplin.
His vision emphasizes people, animals, rocks, trees and water; sometimes architecture. These become interacting symbols of abstract thought and emotions. Light as color and contrast are important like the sun giving light and reflecting off the subject matter. Often the light simply comes from within.
“I move my inner vision out where others may see it and it may remain for a while. I paint people, nature, and light. I convert what seems to be chaos into a visionary experience. The magic of painting makes imagination visible.”

I am currently working out of Art Forms Gallery in Pittsburg Kansas
I started painting at the end of 2019. This is a new journey for me and one that I have looked forward to for many years. I see where the culmination of life experiences has given me the knowledge and expertise that I need for this venture. I love learning new things and sharing with others what I have learned. I want to create art that will bring joy to those who ponder the paintings. I would like to also make pieces that cause people to think. For me art has been a good therapy, one that brings me great joy.
Artist statement:
I am Misty White of White Mist Creative Studios, and my art is a place where paint meets Holy Spirit, becomes fluid and an expression of a deeper life. Pouring out the heart of God onto canvas and other surfaces through acrylic pouring and other mediums, creating with all my essence and encouraging others to encounter the kingdom of God through the arts is a passion of mine.
