Biographies
Jeremy Bottslives and works with his grandparents on the family farm in Redland Valley PA. After 18 years in the suburbs of Chicago, providence called him to the Rhode Island School of Design, where he received a BFA in graphic design. He spent his senior year in Rome with weekend trips to Assisi, exposing himself to finocchi, penne all'arrabbiata, and the frescoes of Giotto. He teaches art part time at Messiah College, has designed several typefaces, and enjoys forays into the lesser piano works of Chopin and Scriabin. As he stokes the wood stove, Botts often imagines his renovated chicken house studio sprouting scaly legs and running through the alfalfa fields. He believes he will fly away some glad morning. |

Bryce Alan Flurie lives on his family's farm in Lewisberry PA with his artistically sympathetic wife, Jody, and children Elijah, Jael, and Tziporah.

Here he has learned that poets shouldn't use power tools and to avoid trips to the W.C. after cutting hot peppers. He has researched the Delta Blues, mysticism, and contemplative prayer, while trying to reconcile existential philosophy with evangelical Christianity. In his spare time he enjoys composing scathing diatribes against summer, television, and processed foods, taking walks in the woods, and finding various uses for his many pocketknives. And he thinks that life is nothing like a mountain railway.... |
