Rebecca Joskey is an emerging painter with 20 yrs working experience as a mosaic artist and 6yr as painter. Abstract expressionism has been her focus with geometric images and bold color combinations. [more]

My work exists in the spaces near memories and experience. I look to engage the viewer in a visual discourse between the inherent sensuality, (history), of the figure and the fiction of memory’s recreation of experience. [more]

Assemblage artist Sallie Godwin said that as a child, she’d escape to a world of her own invention, a well-ordered world where everything made sense. She’s still doing that in her art. Although she works in many mediums, each piece brings together different, often disparate, elements that make a harmonious whole.

Sallie’s collages often feature analogous color schemes that contrast with dramatic juxtapositions of geometric shapes. In her works with found objects, she uses deconstructed costume jewelry, children’s toys, and game pieces to tell stories that often bring a smile to the viewer.

Story telling was important in Sallie’s first career, journalism. A native of Virginia, she earned a degree in journalism at the University of South Carolina, where she also took art history and graphic design. She moved to Oklahoma in 1981 and began a career as a reporter for the Tulsa World, then later, public relations. She joined Urban Art Lab Studios in February 2019.

Hannah Gardner was raised in Tulsa, OKlahoma and in 2017 graduated with a BFA in Studio Arts from Santa Fe University of Art and Design. In 2018 she attended Penland school of crafts for a concentration in ceramics.

Tulsa interior designer Julie O’Connor has more than nineteen years of experience creating interiors for residential clients and hospitality projects.

Julie has experience with Tulsa’s historical building renovations, such as the Edward Delk Restaurant in the Philtower Building and several historic homes.
