j. w. baker biografie

name: j. w. baker
who i am: artist
professional experience 35 years

i believe that art is about communication and i have been actively "communicating" through my art since the age of four. for me, my art in whatever medium has always been my most effective means of communicating the inspirations and observations i believe worthy of commentary.

"art transcends the ambiguity of language - a simple painting can speak volumes"

it is my belief that being an artist is neither a job, or a trade but rather a way of being - it defines who you are, and the true difficulty is not in learning style or technique, but rather in learning to accept that "definition" - i define myself as an artist in a constant process of becoming - we learn by doing and through a continued process of communicating through art, we attain the freedom to access our directness.

"true art ia a journey to rediscover the simplicity you already possess"

i believe artistic ability is a gift; a connection to the dinine through which each individual artist fosuses the infinite potential of all possibility in their own unique way - accepting this gift and allowing it to "define" you comes with the responsibility to share that gift with the rest of the world.

if we learn by doing, then it is my intent as an artist to do the work ...

"there are no shortcuts to the process"

sandi baker biografie

sandi baker has been creating art with an airbrush for over twenty years.

completely self taught, the artist prefers to work freehand using acrylics on handmade panels. she enjoys painting a variety of subjects but always strives to send a message within the art - usually concerning wildlife preservation, the beliefs of her native american ancestors, and modern women´s issues.

sandi began her artistic path early in life, out on her own and freelancing by age 16. by the age of nineteen sandi opened her own sign company and ran it for 13 successful years creating vast amounts of unique artistic signs and glasswork.

teaching herself along the way she became very skilled in freehand lettering, glass etching, gilding, pinstriping, and airbrushing automotive and sign murals. throughout these years she still painted her personal fine art works with the airbrush and found her work to be popular with collectors.

soon after closing the sign company to concentrate solely on her fine art she met and married fellow artist j w baker. they created WOLF SONG STUDIO in 2005 and continue to work together creating fine art that is sold to collectors and licensed to product manufacturers.

sandi uses harder & steenbeck´s infinity 2 in 1 and evolution airbrushes, and golden paints and mediums.
