This month’s featured artists: Roxana de Leon & Diego Brindis - Studio Techs

About Roxana: Roxana is a 90s baby born in Mexico, raised chaotically throughout the North Americas, and currently working in NYC. Chasing the thrill of a well-made piece of art, she seeks to delight the eye through often figurative and colorful works. Training in fine arts on top of a life-long revelry in wacky mixed media practices combine to form her style and sensibility. 

About Diego: Diego is a glass maker, educator, and an occasional screenwriter. Originally from NYC he likes to spend his time making vessels and stemware, reading, writing, and playing sports.
