The Impact of Original Art
-
The Beauty
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This is especially true when it comes to art. There are so many dimensions of beauty that can be found in a piece of art that speaks to you. The medium, the subject, the technique, the perspective, and so many other factors all come together to deliver a piece of art that is truly your own.
-
The Feeling
Art should speak to you. It can transport you to another place and another time. It can stimulate all the senses to create a feeling that is embedded in your memory and recalled at each glimpse. Whether you want cheery or gloomy, relaxing or energetic, reflective or inspiring - the right piece of art should give you all the feels.

The Story
The perfect piece of art often comes with a story that is personal to you. The subject could be a landscape from a faraway village discovered during your travels. The artist could have a story overcoming adversity to pursue her passion for the art. Your heart will tell you when a piece becomes part of your story.

Tyler Pack
Tyler found a love for drawing the human form and it spurred his desire to complete a BFA in Illustration. His love for classical artistic tradition only deepened through living abroad in Italy for several years where he could study the works of Renaissance Masters up close. After finishing a Masters degree in Italian with an emphasis in Art History, he found himself back in his high school art classroom teaching art and Italian. Tyler has been accepted into several prestigious juried shows. He loves the simplicity and yet poignant symbolism associated with still life paintings, and the beauty and form of simple objects. Tyler resides in Utah with his muse/wife and two children.
Kelly Lee
Born and raised on the West Coast, Kelly finds daily inspiration in this beautiful part of the world she calls home. She has always kept a sketchbook and continues to study art whenever she gets the chance. Kelly has benefitted from the wisdom of many teachers along the way, both during her college years, later in art workshops and classes at home and abroad. Though her work is now largely self-directed, she continues to learn from an ever-expanding community of fellow artists.
Kelly currently lives in the Bay Area with her husband and children. As a family, they love to hike and spend their days at the beach. Fortunately, her family is very supportive of her enduring habit of pulling out an easel wherever they go.
