Brian Paynebpayne63@verizon.netBioBrian D. Payne is a full time artist whose life long love of art has brought him to realize his dream of being a professional artist. A graduate of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, Brian is currently freelancing his talents in both the commercial art and fine art fields. Watercolor and water based media are his specialty as he combines a love of nature, sometimes humor, and always an expressive style to incorporate into his unique art. Landscapes, floral, wildlife, and children are just some of the subject matter he enjoys to paint while he admits that it is hard to categorize him into any one. From his home based studio in Girard, PA, this life long resident of Northwest Pennsylvania is constantly inspired by the world around him. Through his art, Brian welcomes the viewer into his world and invites them to explore the next inspiration just around the corner.

Dan Sharpdrsart@comcast.netBioDan attended Michigan State University where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art. Finding a niche in the world of children's art, he's enjoyed great success and fulfillment illustrating and pleasing art directors and clients for more than twenty years. Dan is extremely versatile and reliable, thoroughly acclimated in the world of digital art, and truly understands the needs and challenges art directors have. As one recently put it, "Dan is a dream to work with". In his free time, Dan enjoys cycling the rural roads of Michigan where he's logged about 10,000 miles over the last several years on his beloved carbon fiber racing bike, as well as other athletic pursuits such as softball, golf and wallyball (Yes, there is such a sport, and it's intense). He also plays guitar (so- so), and has built several acoustic instruments from scratch. He is a member of the Guild of American Luthier's.
elizabeth o dulembaelizabeth@dulemba.comBioElizabeth O. Dulemba, a.k.a. "e," was beamed to this planet with a pencil in her hand. When she stopped chewing on it, she started drawing and drawing. Eventually she started talking and telling everybody about her crazy dreams and ideas. "Write it down," they said, "we don't want to hear it." Elizabeth had the last laugh because now she does it for a living, but she still chews on her pencil. Elizabeth is an award winning children's book illustrator and writer. Her first picture book, THE PRINCE'S DIARY, was named No.1 2006 Valentine's Day Pick by Book Sense. Her latest is the bilingual PACO AND THE GIANT CHILE PLANT, for which she's been learning to speak Spanish. She writes for the SCBWI Bulletin and along with other illustration projects is currently working on her second novel.

Jim Caputojim@groggydog.comBioJim graduated from art school in 1986 and began his career as a graphic designer for an ad agency in Philadelphia. After doing work by hand for a few years, he finally acquired a Mac. This allowed him to move on as an art director working for a few design studios along the way. Illustration has always been his passion and in 1998 he opened Groggy Dog Studios. After sending out a promo piece, he landed an editorial illustration for the Wall Street Journal Classroom Edition. Groggy Dog Studios was up and running. “As a kid,” Jim said, “ I was always reprimanded for daydreaming and now I'm getting paid for it!” In 2000, he left Philadelphia and moved to Orlando, Florida. While looking for a full-time job, he took the time to develop his technique and experiment with a mixed media of watercolor, pastel, colored pencil, and brushed ink. This allowed for a fresh look and began doing work for magazines such as chickaDEE and Muse. After nine years of working as an art director by day and illustrator by night, he decided to make illustration a full-time gig in 2007. Jim quips, “My neighbors are convinced I’m hiding under the Federal Witness Protection Program.” His client list includes The Kennedy Center, Scholastic, Ideals Publications, Norwood House Press, and Harcourt. In his spare time, he enjoys physical fitness, going to movies, reading, and spending time with his dog Donovan. All of which provide an endless amount of inspiration.

Kerry Valenzuelavalenzuela.kerry@yahoo.comBioMy art begins in my imagination, trickles down my ear and arm, around the brush and onto the page. I want to inspire children to do the same, to begin whatever they do with wonder and creativity. My work exists to cultivate their imaginations to the fullest, so that they become adults that will bring dreams to a dream less world; and to bring adults back to a place where they can begin dreaming again.
