Markus Lindsey Photography
Meet Markus Lindsey, a photographer with a passion for freezing moments in time.
Based in Georgetown, Texas, Markus started with old-school 35mm film, capturing the world in classic black and white. Those early days in the darkroom created a love for the craft that still shines through today.
As a wildlife and landscape photographer, my commitment is not just to freeze moments in time but to transport viewers into those moments, allowing them to experience the beauty, serenity, and vitality that define the natural world. Each photograph is an invitation to step into a different dimension, to connect with the profound stories that unfold in the silent language of nature.
Aaron Porter – Damon Arts
Acrylic Paintings
Aaron grew up drawing prolific piles of characters from his imagination. He and his father Dare would spend hours together exploring the properties of different mediums, from ink to sidewalk chalk, building blocks to fogged up mirrors. Everything held the potential for creative expression, a philosophy that Aaron has kept close as an adult.
After 14 years in New Orleans, showing his work on Jackson Square in the heart of the French Quarter Aaron relocated to Austin, TX in 2022.
Kathleen Lundy – ShadowWorks Jewelry
ShadowWorks Jewelry has 18k gold and sterling silver fine jewelry that is handmade by Kathleen Lundy in Georgetown, TX. Each piece of jewelry Kathleen creates begins as an idea, followed by a quick sketch then an in-depth drawing. She works with the metal to bring her design to life using the traditional goldsmithing techniques of forging, forming, sawing, soldering, carving, and chasing and repousse. She textures the metal with hammers, burs, punches and organic surfaces. She incorporates textures that are inspired by sites she visited when she lived overseas in Asia and Africa and traveled around the world. You can see the influence of the natural environment that inspires Kathleen in each of her pieces: leaves, tree bark, rock formations and more.
Kathleen’s work has clean lines with a mixture of textured and patterned metal. She accents pieces with precious stones such as diamonds, sapphires and rubies and uses unique natural stones such as boulder opals and tourmalines as focal elements. Wearability of her jewelry is important as is the ability of collectors being able to make the piece their own by stacking or layering.

Abstract Encaustic and Mixed Media
What I love as a painter, I play with – color, texture, marks, and symbols. By “play”, I mean that I paint abstractly, beginning each work simply with a few marks and colors to evoke a mood or a thought, and then reacting intuitively, I grow each piece layer upon layer until it speaks of an experience, concept, or mood from my unconscious or memory. I find the “aha” that comes bubbling up delightful and inspiring, and it keeps me coming back for more “play.” My color palette is deeply influenced by my central Texas home – limestone, blue jeans and blue skies, red chili, rusted barbed wire, and spectacular aqua and orange sunrises and sunsets.
I choose to work most often in the medium of encaustic. Why wax? – The layers of wax help tell the story through either revealing or obscuring elements in the work. In addition, it can be worked quickly and yet can stay in process and evolve indefinitely. Plus, there’s fire – painting with fire for sure adds to unpredictability and therefore more play. Recent play has extended to working with watercolor and acrylic for the way the medium type gives a different tone to the work.
