Also on our radar are emerging artists Riley Holloway and Megan Ping. Both artists express their keen observation of the human figure through their modern portraiture style.  Combining a sense of shock, confrontation, question, or story telling that utilizes the mediums of painting and drawing on wood or canvas.
