Megan Dorien
26, female urban/street artist. I love to create art and put up pieces on the street. I do this because I believe everyone should be able to view fun art, it should not be reserved for galleries. I enjoy watching my pieces grow with their surroundings and decay with the seasons. My art name is “mineisyours” because I am trying to give all that I can via art.

Celeste Walls
As an Artist and Art Therapist, my journey provides me with experiences beyond the art studio. Art for me is a reflection of this journey where dreams and possibilities are endless. “Goddess” represents an individual’s dance with life to move toward the beauty of inner strength. She emerges on canvas reaching for that which symbolizes the power of strength and serenity.
Barbara Segal
Barbara Segal has earned a firmly established reputation as an important public artist and advocate of the arts in New York State. Her exhibitions and larger scale public works have consistently met with rave reviews. The fall of 2003 welcomed the opening of a sculpture park on the Hudson River waterfront in Yonkers. In 2005 “Muhheakantuck”, an MTA Arts for Transit commission, two/ seventy foot cast aluminum waves, charting the original borders of the Sawmill River. In 2007 Barbara created Artrucks, transforming 6 garbage trucks with artist-designed vinyl wraps promoting environmental awareness. Currently Barbara is a consultant for the City of Yonkers, and works in her Parkhill studio creating new works from stone.
