Annamarie H. Behring

Annamarie's two passions in life are simple: community service and art education. Though she has always enjoyed being creative, she only recently has begun develop her craft through painting, drawing, and pastel classes. Inspiration for her artwork is drawn from the vivid colors of Africa to the soft hues of the Cape. "Both places are beautiful in their own unique ways. I have been lucky in my life to have experienced both."

Susan Behring

Susan's first love was the ocean: "I spent summers on Seaside Heights, New Jersey, watching the waves and the sunrise every morning. I found the ocean both relaxing and calm. I try to portray that in the photos that I take. The ocean inspires me to think beyond myself."
