Stained glass
I have been making stained glass and mosaic art for over 30 years. My works include window panels, tabletop art and custom commissions. I also teach classes and sell glass to students.
Handcrafted gourmet cookies made from our own secret recipes. As a tribute to our TN heritage we blend a splash of Tennessee Moonshine into most of our recipes. Just enough flavored moonshine to add a burst of flavor but not enough to upset the preacher.
Raeus Jae Cannon is a fiber artist using knitting and pin loom weaving to create one-of-a-kind wearable art pieces. Raeus discovered her mother’s 1930’s pin loom at age seven and quickly was hooked on the little loom that kept her occupied for hours. However, the loom was set aside for more than 40 years until after Raeus was introduced to knitting. Raeus focuses on the back of a garment that’s so often ignored. She wants people to compliment the wearer from the front saying: “you look wonderful today!” from the back she wants them to hear: “your coat/sweater is beautiful!”
I create apparel with a purpose, quirky paper goods, and city maps. All of my product is hand drawn and then created into printed goods. Why waste time and hand draw? Because I'm a strong believer in the power of something that is handmade with love and care!
I am a Knoxville native and recent graduate of the University of Tennessee with a BFA in 2D art. I love bold color, pattern, pop culture, portraiture, fashion, and most importantly the wonderful city I live in!

I come from a long line of women makers. I sleep under quilts that my grandmother made, my head rests on pillowcases that my aunt embroidered, and my memories are full of time spent watching my mom and grandmother create. I create one of a kind items through embroidery, quilting and other fiber arts. The majority of my sewing and embroidery skills are self-taught, and I’d like to think there is a little bit of genetic love seeping through.
I love creating designs that have a clean yet organic feel; hammered textures, mixed metals, personalized detailing, and of course, PEARLS! Jewelry makes a statement, and means something different to each of us. I most enjoy the feeling it offers as a gift for the times in life when we celebrate milestones, need a smile, want to remember, to support, or just to feel pretty. I design and make each piece by hand, and to order. Connecting with my customers is very important to me. :)

His products are crafted by hand with no automated machinery using old world techniques.
After spending over 20 years as a fulltime mom for three children, I returned to my love of drawing and watercolor in the Fall of 2009. I specialize in drawing and painting flowers, nature and portraits. I’m especially fond of combining animals and flowers in the same piece. I use acid free papers and high-quality pencils and pigments, and all originals are sealed with a museum quality spray. I believe our lives are filled with lovely small moments that can easily be missed, therefore it is always my goal to try and capture them on paper. (At the moment, the best place to see recent work is on my Facebook Art page.)

Founded in 2009, Attack Monkey Productions is a full-service entertainment, event, and arts agency who seeks out the things that are cool and brings them straight to you – from music to moonshine, the traditional to the avant-garde. AMP specializes in the development and promotion of unique, high-quality brands and experiences. Our philosophy is simple: build brands that are authentic and offer the best possible experience to our artists, clients and the general public.
Services include artist management and development, creation and oversight of special events and festivals, talent buying and concert promotion, public relations, and marketing. We offer a wide range of consultation services as well.
The bottom line? We're promoters, but not the kind who are looking for a quick buck. We're more interested in spreading the gospel of the brands we love. We want to create memorable, impeccable events, produce incredible concerts that will leave people breathless, and introduce the world to their new favorite artists. Ultimately, we’re fans ... and if we're a fan of you, we'll make sure people know about it. You've heard of many of the brands we represent. Those you haven't heard of? You will soon. We'll make sure of it.

We love being able to make high quality and affordable bath and body products that are not only fun to use but also good for you and your body. We make everything in small batches to ensure top quality and we only use the best high quality ingredients in all of our products.

I started out with a small handsaw and I used it to cut up a pallet to make a shelf. I was advised to start adding color to my pieces to make them more appealing. I have since experimented with different finishes and different types of wood. I have also expanded beyond just making plain shelves and am slowly transitioning into more intricate work.
I am an interior designer by trade and education, but I have been a maker all my life. Over the years I have explored collage, embroidery, quilting, knitting, murals, painting, and drawing, but I am currently focused on drawing and painting with the hope of experimenting and incorporating more 3-D elements.
