Rex Adams

Visual Arts: Photography

I love the suddenness of photography - the immediate relationship between the eye and the shutter, the serendipity of being outside in nature searching for glorious moments and getting them inside my camera.

My name is Amanda Boekhout and I am an artist and mama living in Tallahassee, Florida. My partner, two children, cat, pup, and I live in a cozy home in the beautiful northern Florida Capitol city. Surrounded by giant live oaks and pines, swaying moss, singing birds, and chattery squirrels; the days are bright and breezy and the nights are warm and humid. Inspired by my time living in Florida and North Carolina as well as extensive travel across North America and Europe, I am in awe of the immense beauty of this planet and the creatures and creativity that encompass it. Being raised by a hard working moon worshiping mama and a cabinet making craftsman father, I learned to appreciate the magic of nature, the importance of learning and excelling at your craft, working efficiently, and relaxing and traveling often. I received my MFA from Florida State and also taught visual art as an adjunct instructor there for 6 years. I spend much of my time rearing my two young children and practicing yoga. I thrive in the art studio and truly appreciate the time I get to create is solace. My work is an offering for the divine feminine. I strive to experience balance of masculine and feminine in the world. My artwork is my contribution to this goal. Namaste.

Serena Corson

Multi Arts; Performing Arts; Teaching Artist/Instructor: Guest Speaker for Schools/Classrooms, Illustration, Multi Arts, Painting, Performing Arts, Photography, Private Lessons for Adults, Private Lessons for Kids, Teaching Artist/Instructor, Visual Arts; Visual Arts: Guest Speaker for Schools/Classrooms, Illustration, Multi Arts, Painting, Performing Arts, Photography, Private Lessons for Adults, Private Lessons for Kids, Teaching Artist/Instructor, Visual Arts

Serena Viola Corson is a multi-disciplinary artist living and working in Tallahassee, Florida. She was born in 1996 on the beach in North Carolina, but moved around the nation several times growing up with her single mom due to financial instability and the 2009 recession. In 2010, they found a home in a small timeless town on the East Coast of Central Florida. Serena's paintings explore the relationships between women and non-binary people trying to survive under the many agonizing forms of modern life amidst the perishing environment. Her art centers moments of collective joy, platonic pleasure and radical friendships. The mostly feminine-presenting figures Serena paints are always uncensored. These figures are either self-references or inspired directly by friends and community members. In a time where it's hard to imagine alternative structures of human society, she also seeks to present a multiplicity of possible post-work utopias. Life’s inevitable messiness is reflected in the looseness of her brushwork. While the work mainly deals with heavy and daunting issues, Serena aims for the work to always retain an uplifting sense of freedom, spontaneity and immediacy.

Vivienne Dumas

Visual Arts: Illustration, Mixed Media, Murals, Painting, Photography, Visual Arts, Works on paper

I am always looking for ways to improve as a professional artist and be able to apply it to the real world and a career path. I have been learning and practicing art for many years in and out of the school environment. My academic achievements in art earned me the art department award of my program in 2018, a Pinellas Art Education Association award of merit in 2019, and a spot on the National Art Honor Society as president which I am continuing with this year. My proudest achievement was winning a Scholastic Art Nation gold medal in 2018 and being able to travel to New York for the ceremony. My art practice has changed over the years in order to make my own signature style and to make my art more unique to myself. My life experiences are represented in my art, like a recent diagnosis of diabetes and deaths in the family, when I express myself on the canvas. I've elevated my skills to be practiced in a lot of different mediums ranging from watercolor to pen to marker. I have an infinity for black and white, which stems from my grandmother's artistic eye. Most of my recent pieces have been monochrome to honor her due to her recent passing.

Matthew Forrest

Graphic Arts; Media Arts; Multi Arts; Visual Arts: Graphic Arts, Graphic Arts, Illustration, Media and Visual Communications, Media Arts, Mixed Media, Multi Arts, Murals, New Media/Technology, Painting, Performance Art, Printmaking, Sculpture, Visual Arts, Works on paper

I am a multidisciplinary artist. My art can take the form of painting, printmaking, collage, drawing, digital illustration, and animation; it often combines mediums. My style is heavily influenced by pop art, psychedelia, and my background in graphic design. Much of my work utilizes recognizable pop culture icons to create a visually appealing image and an instant connection to the viewer. It is also not uncommon to find rainbows, stars, flowers, and other nods to the psychedelic experience or preternatural. Themes common to my work include pop culture, flawed heroes, substance abuse, greed, violence, trauma, death, and healing. I know that art cannot cure all of the world’s problems, but I think it is important to make an effort, so I hope that by engaging with my art, the viewer will question their own relationships with these subjects. Although there are myriad issues that can be addressed through art, I have chosen these concepts for their relevance to my own life experiences.

Ivy Frankenfield

Visual Arts: Ceramics, Painting, Printmaking, Visual Arts, Visual Arts Instructor

I am a self-proclaimed "potter-for-life" that also likes to dabble in other mediums such as watercolor and printmaking. A majority of my artwork is inspired by nature and my surroundings and is sometimes laced with deeper meanings not always apparent to the viewer's eye.
