I earned my MFAW in writing from School of the Art Institute of Chicago. My work has been platformed around the globe, including exhibitions and residencies in the Netherlands, Korea, the U.S., Wales, and the United Kingdom.
I'm currently working toward my MFA in Interdisciplinary Media Arts at Lindenwood University. Dandylying.com is my creative space where I post the mess, take the risks, and figure it out as I go.
I like creating interesting visuals in a mundane world. I like to escape into a world unknown. Life’s too short not to.
Hi, I’m Shay, a chainmail artist based in University City, Missouri. For over 18 years, I’ve been creating unique, handcrafted pieces inspired by my love of history, fantasy, and nature. I specialize in intricate, custom designs using the centuries-old technique.
Former art teacher from Dallas, TX for PK-12. Currently do social media marketing in current job role. Seeking opportunities to display artwork.
Geek Punk Store is a loud mix of protest art, underground music culture, and pop-culture weirdness. Our work is created as a direct response to the policies and rhetoric of the current administration, with a strong focus on the challenges, discrimination, and legislative attacks facing the LGBTQIA+ community. Alongside our original political artwork, we carry a wide selection of punk rock, emo, and alternative band patches, stickers, and enamel pins. You’ll also find plenty of comic book, sci-fi, and cartoon-inspired chaos—designed for battle jackets, backpacks, and anyone who likes their accessories with attitude.
Marie Magnetic (b. 1989, Jackson, Michigan) uses color, form, and surreal images to reflect on the mundane, the morose, and the magnificently mad. Pulling from her experiences, social issues, and current events, Marie’s work considers the experiences of being othered. Her art aims to explore humanity and share her strange inner world with her audience. Besides a handful of art classes she has taken at community art centers, Marie is self-taught. Marie Magnetic is a St. Louis, Missouri-based visual artist. She is queer, neurodivergent, Blackfeet, Irish, and Jewish. Marie was awarded a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Central Michigan University in 2017, working in social services and several library roles before returning to art during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2023, Marie held her first solo exhibit at Little Broken Things in Chicago. Marie is a Foundation House, Haven Foundation, and New York Foundation for the Arts grant recipient. Her work has been published in Haus-a-Rest, HNDL Mag, and Flash Frog. You can find her work at mariemagnetic.com.
David Benjamin Hults (he/him) is a sculptor, graphic designer, and space architect crafting experiences that awaken mindfulness and ignite discovery. Playing with theories of science, spirituality, and wisdom of Ancient Civilizations, David enjoys creating what he calls "Resonant Art". The images, sculptures, and thoughtful designs he makes inspire people to a more engaged resonance, or Beingness with our world. Raised in the mid and southwestern North America, David pursued a dynamic path of cross country skill and career development on his way to the here and now. Injury caused him to reexamine the proverbial mountain he was climbing and led to David claim his title of professional Artist. Hospitality, construction, design, entrepreneurship, community development, and nonprofit management skills all serve in the development of David's perspective and platform, alternativelifeguide.com. From this online portal and his Instagram, @davidhults, he shares positivity focused content and creative development with the world. David is interested in collaborating to create custom Art, spaces, and experiences. He welcomes commissioned Art pieces, particularly unique sculpture, award, and memorial opportunities. David has a wide variety of resin casting molds to design into and makes "Heritage Plate" castings using old family vessels that need new life as Artworks.

Born in San Antonio, Texas and raised in the Texas Hill Country (with excursions to the Gulf Coast regularly) I fell in love with nature. I spent lots of time in California (all over the state) and now reside in Missouri. My happy place is behind the camera taking photos.
Dea Powers is a St. Louis–based visual artist working in figurative and abstract painting. Her work explores transformation, embodiment, and the liminal space between shedding and becoming. Rooted in intuition and process, her practice prioritizes experience over narrative finality. Bold color palettes and expressive palette-knife techniques are frequently used and celebrated, creating layered surfaces that emphasize movement, texture, and emotional resonance. Her figurative work often depicts the body in states of transition—walking, turning, releasing—while her abstract work expands these themes through gesture and form, allowing meaning to emerge without constraint. Influenced by classical figurative foundations alongside contemporary abstraction, her work exists at the intersection of realism and the ethereal. Powers is also the founder of Empower Studios, a creative and healing space that integrates art and experiential practices. Her current body of work centers on themes of personal sovereignty, release, and the moment just before transformation fully reveals itself.
