I am a full-time nurse and after years of capturing a variety of life's special moments through my camera lens, I created my first website in 2013.

Sunday Afternoon, by Irene Olson

"Watercolor has been my passion for the past 10 years. I am always looking for the next photo to take and develop into a painting. I am a member of Madison Watercolor Society and the Madison Art Guild." - Deb Gleason

"I moved to the USA in 1967 from India. I am influenced by the colors and rhythms of India and the Vibrancy of Madison and Dane County. My work reflects both cultures. I was always interested in the arts, and after retiring from medicine, I pursued art, gardening and making bread. My art is in corporate and individual collections and I have been featured in the Dane County Cultural Affairs calendar. I love what I do." - Irene Olson

"My collages are made from discarded box labels, bumper stickers and 'pesky' address labels. Odd color combinations are dictated by my material sources. I hope to tickle your eyes' funny bone with color and shapes. I am dedicated to recycling, so all my works are original compositions. When one of my compositions finds a home, there's always another on emerging from the point of my knife blade onto a nice colored box I rescued from a dumpster." - Karen Loper
