Derek Sibiski
Hello, I am an artist from Baltimore, MD with a BFA degree in Illustration from Towson University.  I typically work with a wide range of media, from oil paint and watercolor to digital paint.  Additionally, I apply new and creative techniques within my rendering of the whimsical and darker edges of both reality and surreal fantasy.
Rose Anderson
          Born in Maryland in 1977, Rose Anderson spent her childhood sequestered in her mother’s carefully curated environment of religious indoctrination. When Anderson was 14 years old, her mother joined a cult to keep her children safe from the false doctrines of mainstream society.       In 1999, trapped in a loveless union within the cult, Anderson gave birth to her third child in as many years. As her husband’s efforts to control her escalated, she fled with her children and entered the workforce directly from a place of utter poverty and ignorance.
