Elle Mendoza - Hello I'm a senior Media Arts Design Major at UMKC. Art for me is just spewing my thoughts and ideas onto paper or canvas. Sometimes they turn out into something thoughtful and meaningful. Other times they turn out into a splat of random thoughts that make no sense.  

Meagan Gardner - A little punk, a little grunge, possibly 3 opossums in a trench coat. Following the weird and letting the eccentric out in the only way she knows how - with art!

Lili Pujols HI I’m Lili and I am an art student at UMKC. Art has always been an outlet me. I make art to help me process, feel things, and to just kind of get it all out. Sometimes it’s more personal, sometimes it’s serious and intentional, but most of the time it’s just about being expressive and having a little fun. Stay crafty!!  

Solana Rivera: Raised on Van Gogh, Tim Burton, and the love for all things 80’s in an eccentric, colorful home blossoming with creativity; Solana Rivera channels it all into their art. Everything they absorb in life becomes symbolic into the stories that their pieces tell. Their roots and upbringing are sacred pieces to the puzzle. Solana’s Mexican heritage as well as the badass women they descend from are the most inspirational elements to their pieces. “
