Bethany Waggoner

Each stencil is drawn by hand and cut out with an exacto knife. Each color layer has its own separate stencil and paint is sprayed to print each layer. Often finishing touches are added with paint pens. Linocuts are hand drawn designs, printed with ink and embellished with paint pen.

Marissa Fuchser
BAs a resident of Seward, Marissa enjoys living and working in Alaska's unique landscape. She likes to focus on small moments and things people often miss and appreciate the little details that make up our surroundings. The shape of a bird's wings, the way it moves in flight, or the colors that cause it to stand apart or blend in are things that we don't always think about. She is practiced in wood sculpture and now works primarily in acrylics or gouache. She enjoys working with a variety of materials and testing the limits of each one.
Liza McElroy
Liza grew up in Hartford, VT, but early exposure to Alaska in the form of a 3rd grade geography unit left her homesick for a place she had never been. Determined to fulfill her childhood dreams of mountain climbing and gold panning, grizzly bears and sourdough pancakes, she got up here as quickly as she could. Liza first arrived in Seward as an illustration intern at the Alaska SeaLife Center. She has lived in Seward on and off since that time working as a freelance illustrator/muralist/artist. She lives here now with her husband Ed and puppy Mayday.
