Jason Holley
Sierra Madre, CA

Jason Holley is an artist, illustrator, teacher, and musician living in Los Angeles. He teaches illustration at Art Center College of Design in Pasedena, CA. His artworks are often made up of images painted on paper, cut out and collaged together. When a client returns an illustration to him he often peels his favorite images back off of it to re-use in personal work or other illustrations. For this reason, most of his illustrations survive only in reproduction. This history also contributes to the aged and dirty quality of his work. Holly’s work is simultaneosly raw and incredibly sophisticated and delicate.

Maxwell Mcmaster
Los Angeles, CA

Maxwell McMaster is a Los Angeles based multidisciplinary artist/designer. His work is primarily a reaction to his surrounding environment, or a reflection of past experiences. Maxwell explores a wide range of styles and techniques within his work, allowing the concepts to dictate the aesthetic.
