John Morris
As a traveling artist with over 30 years of experience in the art world and clothing design, I specialize in creating large-scale murals that transform public spaces and foster community engagement. My work reflects a deep appreciation for cultural diversity and aims to bring beauty and inspiration to each location I visit. Through collaborations with local organizations, schools, and businesses, I design and paint murals that capture the unique character and history of the communities I serve. My journey is driven by a passion for art, travel, and meaningful connections, enriching both the spaces I beautify and the people I meet along the way.
Casey Jewell
Hi y’all my name is Casey Jewell and I am the owner, creator, and everything in between for my business ‘Just Jewell’. I am a mixed media artist based out of South Jersey/ Philadelphia. My favorite things to work with are found objects, newspapers, and sharpies. I love to create custom portraits of everyone, pets, underwater creatures and anything with nature. My inspiration for mixed media is using any recycled materials, I can get my hands on. Growing up I was told “I could make anything out of anything” and I took that to its most literal meaning in my art. I love connecting nature with found objects and watching the cycle of its life restart.

Cassidy Colgan
In my work, I explore the intricate relationship between society and the natural world using unconventional mediums to reflect our consumption habits and their environmental impact. By incorporating thrifted frames and repurposed materials such as candy wrappers and balloons, I create reverse glass paintings that serve as both a mirror and a tribute to our planet.
Each piece playfully venerates Mother Gaia, showcasing the beauty and fragility of nature and its cycles. My art invites viewers to contemplate their own connection to the environment, urging a deeper appreciation for the world around us. Through vibrant colors and layered textures, I aim to evoke a sense of wonder and respect for nature, while simultaneously alchemizing trash into treasure.
By transforming discarded items into a celebration of life, I hope to inspire a conversation about sustainability and the importance of honoring our Earth. My work is a call to recognize the beauty in our surroundings and to protect the delicate balance that sustains us.
