Artist Statement: 

Rice and Beans is a collaboration between Geoff Campen and Diana Ruiz. We are artists and architectural designers interested in the interaction between constructed reality, and the natural world. Geoff Campen explores these themes through architectural and construction imagery. He finds and displays inherent order and chaos in both construction and nature. He then contrasts these images with natural materials and colors. Diana Ruiz creates organic forms and surreal botanical creations with found objects, wood and wool in many variations. She is inspired by creatures (real and imagined), and collects a little of everything. Diana Ruiz and Geoff Campen are married and live, work and make art in San Francisco.

Artist Statement:  

There is an element of play in my work, even with ominous subject matter. My favorite support material is brown kraft paper that encourages my spontaneous approach.  In addition to acrylics, my mediums include oil on panel and canvas

 

 

Bio: 

A San Francisco based artist with a studio in Hunters Point Shipyard and Pt. Reyes, Ann Phelan has been exhibiting nationally since the 1990’s. Although several decades younger, Phelan’s work shows the influence of the art of Lawrence Ferlinghetti who has been a mentor to the artist.  Phelan’s own work has an independent approach to the realms of dream-states with a fairy-tale like symbolism and a color-palette closer to European painting that links her to her great grandfather, Wickenden, an antiques and art dealer in Auvers sur l’Oise who sold work of Corot and Daubigny.
