Mike Masters
Mike began painting in 1977, initially experimenting with mixed media methods to produce his very detailed and colorful dream, social comment, and portrait images. Later, he settled on acrylics either applied by brush, airbrush or frottage techniques as his preferred style. His works have been widely used on book covers, magazines and posters. More recently, he has worked almost exclusively on commercial commissions, but is now considering a return to the fine art arena. He will certainly entertain any commissions!

Tom Faught
Born in 1946, Tom began his ceramics career early when he was only eleven. He established the Russian River Studio in 1968 in California - and in 1973, Tom established his current studio and foundry on Maui. From his Maui studio he has embarked on creating his unique style - Boldness. Tom not only accents a space in a locale, he creates it. Faught is known for a daring experimental approach to his art, pushing the leading edge in both design and materials. Perhaps his most innovative development to date is his unique metalizing technique. Click on the thumbnail image on the left to view Tom's gallery.
