Meet our artists

James Barefoot

ARTIST AND CO-OWNER

A native of Bedford County, James has lived and worked all over the world.  Always interested in creating and building new things, he is thrilled to be able to feature his ongoing work in our in-house studio.

Casey Beal

FEATURED ARTIST - MAY 2025

Casey is a visual artist based in Meyersdale, PA, known for her intricate and evocative depictions of the natural world—particularly insects, birds, aquatic animals, and plants—through both detailed illustration and expressive painting. With a background in biology and a Master of Science in this field, her work bridges the gap between scientific observation and artistic storytelling, inviting viewers to explore nature’s overlooked or hidden elements with new curiosity and reverence. 

Michelle Moats

Michelle Moats

FEATURED ARTIST

I love finding innovative ways to felt colorful wool fibers to create interpretive paintings. I am especially inspired to capture the emotion of expressive human faces. I’ve experimented with these elements - color, design, and texture - in a variety of textile and fiber arts over the years--sewing clothes, costumes and even flags, reupholstering furniture, quilting, knitting, weaving and most recently, visible mending.   It was knitting that lead me to fiber painting.   

Collin Cessna

Michelle Moats

FEATURED ARTIST

Collin Cessna is a visual artist living in Baltimore County Maryland. He studied visual arts at the George Washington Carver Center for Arts and Technology. In college, he studied Environmental Science and worked in the field for several years before returning to a life of creating art. Currently, he works out of his studio in his Baltimore County home.  

Jennifer Judd

FEATURED ARTIST

"I like color and texture and big art and loud laughter. That is what I bring to the canvas through my work.  Having spent almost 24 years in a profession that required me to wear a uniform and follow rules, I found that making art helped keep me balanced. "

Gretchen Davis

FEATURED ARTIST

Gretchen, a Bedford native, is a self-taught artist specializing in sterling silver jewelry and leather goods.  Since 2007, she has used traditional techniques including soldering, stone setting, and granulation to create one of kind jewelry pieces.  In 2019, she began working with vegetable tanned leather to craft functional leather goods.  Her work has been on display at the Omni Bedford Springs Resort, Backstage Alpaca, and the Elk County Council of Arts Gallery.

Paul Seymour

FEATURED ARTIST

For over 30 years, Paul has been studying painting from various artists across the country. He started as an acrylic artist specializing in folk art but eventually transitioned to an oil painter with an interest in still life painting, floral painting, and most specifically, landscape painting. Paul can often be found outside behind an easel as he realizes that plein air painting and learning how natural light works is essential in developing the painterly realism that he desires.  Currently, Paul splits his time between plein air painting from life and studio painting as he finds that one informs the other.  

Wendy Heiges

FEATURED ARTIST - JUNE 2024

Wendy is a visual artist from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.  She works in different media, creating one-of-a-kind mirrors, frames, and jewelry.  We are honored to feature a collection of her jewelry at Composition Art & Wine.

FEATURED ARTIST - JANUARY 2024

Fiber Artist, Art Quilter, and Instructor.  "I love creating with fabric, thread with a little bit of inks, acrylics, and oils."

Traditionally wire is manufactured by a process known as drawing.
