Katya Krenina has a passion for book illustration, and for translating the written word into images. She is influenced by her Eastern European roots and feels a strong connection to folk art and storytelling traditions. She has published more than 15 books, which have won national and international awards, and has exhibited her work across the country and abroad.
David Moore received a Master of Fine Arts from Syracuse University. He has exhibited his work in galleries and cultural centers both regionally and nationally, and is a recipient of the 2007 Light Work Grant from Light Work in Syracuse, N.Y. His photography books, “False Idols” and “Ephemeral Beings” are in the collections of museums and galleries throughout the United States.
Jen Gandee is a ceramic artist and graduate of the Syracuse University School of Art and Design. Her work explores the place where art and craft collide, combining recreated historical forms and reinterpreted traditional patterns and techniques with found objects and appropriated modern imagery.

His teaching experience includes 28 years as director of the art department at Henninger High School in Syracuse, N.Y.
