Joann's Fine Foods has a knack for expressing that Austin foodie vibe. Just say "yes" to breakfast tacos! The blue sign and those fun neon lips are eye-catching as you're wandering down South Congress Ave.

Get to Know the Austin Artist: Lisa Zinna

I create what I call "fresh-squeezed, color-crazy photo art". Photography is the basis for my work, but the digital post-processing gives me the freedom to make an image into something unexpected. Techniques such as swapping colors, digitally layering, blurring, or adding photo layers of paper collages make for a nonstandard transformation. The results are fresh, the work is contemporary, and the process keeps me feeling excited to do it over and over and over again.

Get to Know the Austin Artist: Sylvia Troconis

My entire process has a recurring theme: To Discover. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to be a kid during adulthood; to be a child while keeping our adult skills in reason and understanding; to keep a child’s sense of wonder while being conscious of our own sense of amazement. In all my line of work, I use a theme that interests me, study it, and then develop some of the concepts into my visual proposal. My intention is to amaze viewers and make them curious about a subject, whether it is scientific or historic. My goal is to engage spectators with a concept that leaves them wanting to learn more and spread the word.
