About the Artists:
Annie Eskelin, a 2004 alum of Eastern Oregon University, creates her art with materials from paper to steel and seamlessly integrates drawing, painting and sculpture in her intimate and engaging pieces. She has received numerous awards for her work at regional juried exhibitions including Best of Show, Best 2-D and Best Painting.
Kevin Boylan, a 2003 alum of Eastern Oregon University, is a glassblower and sculptor. After graduating, he began studying glass under former EOU professor and revered local artist Tom Dimond. After three years of exploring techniques in glass, he is now incorporating blown glass elements in his mixed media sculpture. He has shown at Carnegie Art Center in Walla Walla, and was a featured artist at Crossroads Art Center in Baker City in 2005. Most recently, he was invited to show at Art Slate in Condon, Oregon and was awarded best in show at the Pendleton Art Center regional juried exhibition and Best 3D at Seasons Faire in La Grande.
John Mueller, a 1991 alum of the University of North Texas, presents mixed media sculptural work that addresses some of the darker recesses of the contemporary human condition, executed with precise craftsmanship and an often mischievous sense of humor. He has had two solo exhibitions, and has won honors in numerous juried shows in Texas and the Northwest.
