A triple-threat artist, Toney works across digital, illustrative, and fine art mediums. His ability to absorb reality and transform it into imagi-native pieces is apparent whether you’re viewing a plein air scene completed on location in Italy or a noir character study.

Toney’s work explores the relationship between animals in their kingdom and examines their role in ours. Her mixed media wildlife illustrations are a cross between scientific illustration and fanciful, expressive, almost paint-erly depictions of the creatures we share our world with.

Untraditional in a traditional medium, Sears’ work blends simple illustrated imagery with nostalgic and surprising color palettes. His knack for organic design and attentive hands-on philosophy are conveyed through complex prints that balance form, function, and substance.
