- Rhonda Grudenic

- Her work is ghostly and ethereal. But there’s a spiritual quality to it as well. And while Rhonda likes to have control of most things in her life…she gets her best results in painting when she “lets go” and follows her instincts!
- Fashion Designer Kayla Kennington

- Kayla Kennington has been creating one-of-a-kind silk clothing and Showpieces for galleries, individual clients and shows for over 30 years. She won the "Crème de la Crème" Award in the Bernina Fashion Show in 2001 with the "Butterfly Coat," and again in 2002 with the "Fire Blossom Phoenix," and received the Bernina Hall of Fame Award in 2003. A National Speaker and Educator, Kayla travels widely, giving workshops, retreats, trunk shows, fashion shows, and inspirational slide presentations. She also writes for national sewing magazines; she is a contributing author for Threads Magazine, Designs in Machine Embroidery, Belle Armoire, and Fiberarts Magazine. Modular Design for Couture Artwear is Kayla's small pattern company, translating her more subtle couture garment designs into a pattern collection; she includes detailed directions for her unique signature seaming styles and many illustrations, addressing the abilities of both beginner and advanced sewers. Kayla’s patterns have no facings, no zippers, and no buttonholes, and lots of creative potential.
