Ben Robinson 2014

Ben Robinson a short order cook by day at Say Cheese Philly and a freelance artist by night. He received his AFA from Montgomery County Community College, and just recently (May, 2013) a 

BFA from UARTS. He produces a broad range of artwork ranging from doodle inspired ink drawings to psychological paintings that are heavily influenced by surrealism and abstraction. A common theme in Ben's work tends to deal with the relationship between contradictions and how they 

simultaneously affect and defect scenarios. He executes this idea through contrasting colors, shapes, composition, objects, etc.. Ben started out his painting career doing more rendered paintings and 

character driven compositions with a surreal edge to them. Recently, he's loosened up his painting technique and have been experimenting with abstraction ever since. Ben Robinson is influenced by 

skateboarding, music and graffiti mostly but he's been discovering new influences in things like architecture, social issues, and people in general. Ben says"There's always new influences to be 

discovered so I try to remain open and be aware of my surroundings while painting and in every day life".

Luckdog Essentia & Curios

Luckydog Essentia and Curios is operated out of Royersford, PA by Katie Lightcap, owner and entrepreneur, and Jason Peterson, co-owner and head of order fulfillment. We upcycle, repurpose, refinish and recycle! We hate throwing things away. Period.

 

 I, Katie, majored in Graphic Design and Fine Art, and specialize in making useful arts and crafts that can be incorporated into everyday life. I almost never make the same thing twice and my favorite medium is collage and decoupage. I also make all of the soaps and scrubs.

 

 

 Jason manages inventory, online sales and designs and builds almost all of the tile coasters and all of the tile tables. We both also have full time jobs, but are very proud to be able to say that in the past year Luckydog has improved and grown to full blown part time jobs for both of us. 

 

 

For this year's Fun A Day, I will be making at least one art tile each day, using mixed media to create clever and humorous fully functional coasters. We will display these along with our normal tile inventory and everything will be available for purchase at the show.
