Featured artists:
Raymond Thunder-Sky (1950 - 2004) was not only a prolific, skillful, inventive artist; he was a Cincinnati icon. Dressed in his construction hat and clown collar, his work-coat and boots and jeans, toting his huge tool-box of art-supplies, Raymond moved from one part of the city to the next, in search of inspiration and subject matter. And he always found it. His drawings of Cincinnati form both an architectural and spiritual history that we are lucky to have.
Antonio Adams works in a variety of media and styles. His work has been in exhibits across the country, including Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and New York City. Regionally, his work has been featured at Artworks Gallery, Big Car Gallery (Indianapolis), DAAP Gallery (University of Cincinnati), Country Club Gallery, and more. Antonio has also shown in the unMuseum at the Contemporary Art Center (Cincinnati). In 2006, Antonio painted a mural at Shake It Records in Northside. He is a co-founder of Visionaries & Voices, an arts organization for artists with disabilities in Cincinnati.
The Robert S. Duncanson Society of the Taft Museum of Art selected painter Brian Joiner as the 2009 Robert S. Duncanson Artist-in-Residence from a pool of local and national candidates. A well-known figure in Cincinnati, Joiner has received an Individual Fellowship from the Ohio Arts Council and was named "best portrait artist in the city" by Cincinnati Magazine. His long list of solo and group exhibitions includes shows throughout Greater Cincinnati and across the country.
David Mack is the creator, author and artist of KABUKI published originally by Image Comics and now through Marvel Comics' imprint ICON.
