About Cathy Barroca:A Ventura County artist and arts educator, she holds an M.F.A. in painting and printmaking from the University of Kansas and has been teaching with the Ventura College Art Department since 1998 and directed the Ventura College Art Galleries from 2001 to 2005. Catherine completed “Portrait of a Neighborhood,” a 100 foot mural in the interior of the Casa de Anza Library in 2001, and is featured in prestigious art collections such as the City of San Buena Ventura, the City of Oxnard, the Ventura County Museum of Art and History and the Spencer Museum of Art in Lawrence, Kansas.

About Barbara Brown:Barbara Brown is a California-based artist interested in figurative and landscape work. She is influenced by the Hudson River School, Thomas Moran, Albert Bierstadt, John Singer Sargent, Diego Velasquez, Artemisia Gentileschi, and Lucian Freud. She received her MFA in Painting from Laguna College of Art and Design and has studied at Harvard Business School and the University of California Santa Barbara in Fine Art. Much of her work was destroyed in the Thomas Fire in 2017. Her subsequent series on that cataclysmic event was a part of her recovery. Her work since then has been an integral part of her healing process. Learn more about her at https://www.barbarabrownartist.com.
