#	Artist & Title	Artist Summary
33	Abby Lederman and Catherine Malcolm – We Did Art Our Way	Over-the-top creativity and love of people, especially our families, keeps our bond strong. Our art is who we have become. Everything we do is dedicated to a world that works for everyone — no exceptions! As elders, we have endured many failures and disappointments yet remain a joyous “yes” to life.
34	Andy Monks – Le Saut Périlleux (The Perilous Leap)	Le Saut Périlleux is a meditation on the perilous leap, what Kierkegaard called the leap of faith, stepping into the unknown. Centered on an unfinished sculpture inspired by the Fool tarot card, it holds the weight of dreams half-built, of giving up and still continuing, and of a friend whose life, too, paused mid-sentence. In its incompletion, the work becomes whole — a quiet altar to the almosts, the not-quites, and the beautiful stories we keep building.
35	Bruce Torquil Campbell – Forgiveness	Through successive acts of mark-making and erasure, this work embodies the dance between chance and intention. Beginning with spontaneous marks, each layer represents a willingness to risk the existing image for the possibility of transformation. The 13 photographic stages chronicle both failures and discoveries, mirroring how forgiveness allows us to remain playfully engaged with life’s imperfections. Like children at play, the work embraces uncertainty, finding beauty in the courage to begin again.
36	Corrina Sephora – Dwelling in a Sea of Time and Space	Through my work, “Dwelling in a Sea of Time and Space,” I’ve transformed my conversation of being a “local artist” to being an “international artist, on the global stage.” I accomplished this by creating this body of work and exhibiting it in Venice, Italy, in conjunction with the Venice Biennale. In the work, I combined nautical and cosmic imagery, reaching beyond societal limits of expression, and fulfilled my promise to create art that transcends boundaries.
37	J.D. Walters – The New Cyclone Racer for Downtown Long Beach, California	“The New Cyclone Racer!!!” displays the world-class hybrid wood/steel rollercoaster that I envisioned and co-designed in a rollercoaster design program, called No-Limits 2. This program is highly developed and presents rollercoasters as they would actually run in real life. The program is highly detailed and specific in regards to physics, forces, weather, and more. If a designed rollercoaster can operate properly in No-Limits 2, it absolutely will operate in real life.
38	Judy Lee Chen Sang – In the Raw – Beyond the Scars	This piece represents the ability to upgrade conversations from hurt to inspiration. Inspired by Judy-Lee’s personal journey in discovering the other side of scars and the common emotions that accompany the soul, Judy-Lee explores the rawness of scars. What is a scar to you, may not be a scar for me, so we explore in the visuals and narration looking at scars and what it could take to transform.
39	Lynnie Sterba – Artist’s New Beginning	“After The Vortex” embodies the theme At Play in the World, Risking Failure by transforming a “failed” painting into a vibrant new creation. Rather than erasing the past, remnants of the original work become integral, adding depth, texture, and wisdom. This process mirrors the playful, risk-taking nature of art and life—where setbacks are not endings but opportunities for reinvention. Embracing uncertainty, the painting evolves, celebrating resilience, creativity, and the beauty of transformation.
40	Marget Ayer – Sigrid and the Viking	Margot Ayer writes science fiction, fantasy and romance under the name Kerry Lee. These stories take place in the world of Evertide, a planet that pulls humans from every period from the Stone Age to the future. Sigrid Valkyrie must have a daughter to continue the line. She takes a risk with a Viking who seems to be perfect — but is not.
41	Paul Freyermuth – Joyfully Igniting Miracles	I failed again and again at making art, trying to draw anything recognizable. Inspired by Impressionists and later Pollock, I still felt “not good enough.” But this piece is where I chose to play anyway. I let go, embraced color and chaos, and risked failure for the joy of creating. This painting is a stand for my promise: that all people are joyfully working and playing together—igniting miracles, one bold brushstroke at a time.
