Art Lovers: This Post is for You

A new and unique exhibit is coming to the Book and Bean Cafe for the months of September and October.

The exhibit will feature the work of four Joliet artists: Matt Coundiff, Terri Ellinger, Topher Gleason, and Sue Midlock. The artist reception will be from 6 to 8 p.m. Sept. 27 at the Book and Bean Cafe, 3395 Black Road, Joliet. 

All four work in very different styles. 

Matt works mainly in colored pencil and market and is also a tattoo artist.

Terri specializes in watercolor, gouache, pencil, colored pencil, mixed media and ink, and creates custom portraits of people, places and pets.

Topher uses watercolor and ink.

Sue, a vampire author, works in a variety of mediums, but for this show, she will be displaying her photography.

The only connection between these four artists is that they have all created art for some of my different books. For this reason, the exhibit is called, "The Art of the BryonySeries," because of all the art displayed, although not featured in any of the books, will echo the styles.

Much of the art will be available for sale. Cash sales are accepted at the register. For other payment methods, contact the individual artists directly. Additional flyers will be available at the cafe with the artists' email addresses.

In addition, all four artists are taking commissions. So if you have an idea you'd like to bring to life, or if you are a local author and need a book cover or interior illustrations, these four artists have experience.
