Chris Amos
Ypsilanti Area

Chris has worked as a part-time and full-time professional photographer since he was a sophomore in high school (2004). He has specialized in sports, wedding, automotive (editorial & commercial), portrait, and headshot photography. Since mid-2011, Chris has worked (part-time) as the Multimedia Editor at Winding Road Magazine where he is in charge of all video content for the magazine. Chris also is a regular freelance photographer with automotive magazines/websites such as AUTOWEEK, Winding Road, and Autoblog. In early 2012, Chris became inspired by New York headshot photographer Peter Hurley and decided to create and grow a headshot photography business in addition to his work as an automotive photographer. The skills needed in both headshot and automotive photography strike the perfect balance for Chris. Automotive photography/video gives him a venue to enjoy and pursue his passion for cars, while headshots allow Chris to flex his "people skills" and ability to get the best out of those in front of his camera. Background: In May 2011, Chris graduated Albion College with a bachelors in geology and a minor in art. However, halfway through his college career, Chris discovered a passion for business, and realized his calling to continue to grow in his photography after graduation. He would become a full-time professional photographer who just happens to know a lot about rocks. Some of Chris's interests and passions include: entrepreneurship, psychology, mountain biking, grassroots auto racing, ice skating, cars, herpetology, partner dancing, geology, diet & well-being, reading books, watching TED talks on his iPad, the outdoors, talking in a Scottish accent, and oh yeah...photography (of course).

Nelson Amos
Ypsilanti Area

Artistic realism (local images, landscapes, portraits, commissions), artist services (giclées, prints, etc.), custom framing, unique gifts. Nelson Amos's early experience in the visual arts was as an art major at Morehead State University in the 1960's. After a year of study, he decided to follow a career in music which led him to Ohio State University for a Master of Arts degree and The University of Iowa for his Ph.D. Since 1975, he has served as Professor of Music at Eastern Michigan University where he continues to teach classical guitar, lute, and graduate classes in music history. Inspired by his historical music interests, Amos decided in 1997 to incorporate Renaissance and Baroque painting techniques in his art work. In 2004, the Nelson Amos Studio opened at 9 East Cross Street in Ypsilanti's Historic Depot Town. The Studio has since moved to 23 E. Cross Street. To date, Amos has painted almost 40 portraits including individuals, family, as well as corporate commissions. His painted images of Ypsilanti and Ann Arbor are favorite items having broad appeal in Southeast Michigan. Amos continues to teach at Eastern while his wife Korin assumes much of the day-to-day operation of the studio-gallery (custom framing and sales of his original art work).

I have studied many styles of oil painting. I most frequently fall into a subjective tonal impressionist style of painting. I love to paint on location, in plein air, around Michigan and other places in addition to my studio work. Having grown up in a rural environment, I enjoy the simple quiet places in nature. While exploring the forest trails, or driving the country roads, I am reenergized, completely at peace, among the seemingly tranquil existence of nature and the wildlife so fortunate to live there. You will find me in these places, painting what excites me, capturing feelings of a place that can be far more reaching than paint can express.

Ann Arbor Area

Kate is an improvising musician who specializes in woodwinds, primarily saxophone. She collaborates with a number of musicians in the area to produce music that is based largely in "free improvisation," i.e. music created in, by and for the moment of its performance. Kate's background is in classical and jazz saxophone study; she recently graduated from the University of Michigan with a masters degree in Improvisation. While there, she also focused on Creativity and Consciousness studies, which applies the methods and ideologies of contemplative traditions (meditation, for example) to the process of art-making. Kate just released her first CD, Improvised Duets, with guitarist Gary Prince. The album was recorded in Ann Arbor, and features 11 tracks of completely improvised music. Although the concept could be considered somewhat avant garde, the individual songs are tuneful and concise, inviting the listener to contemplate the interaction of the two performers and the sounds they're capable of producing together. Kate is also the Administrative Director of the International Society for Improvised Music, an Ann Arbor-based non-profit dedicated to promoting improvised music and the community of musicians who foster its development. She recently directed their 4th annual conference at UC Santa Cruz.

I have enjoyed wearing many hats, working with all kinds of artists in many different capacities. The most influential step I’ve taken in my career as an artist is with public mural art. After 10 years of developing community mural art programs, in South Eastern Michigan, in the fall of 2007, founded public art business, TreeTown Murals. Tree Town Murals is committed to promoting the visual development of local communities by fostering initiatives that support public art. By enhancing our neighborhoods, city centers, and parks with public artwork, we stand out as a community that makes art a part of our daily lives. I believe mural art should reflect the community it lives in, in addition to encouraging community involvement and economic development.
