Sullivan, of Elmira, began her career as a cartographer on Cape Cod but today is a "representational abstract landscape painter. …the geologic and geographic structures, organic scents and earthy hues found close to the land and sea were embedded upon my soul at a very early age and continue to inform and influence my life and work." This is her third Finger Lakes. Magyar, of Rochester, is an assistant professor at RIT. She celebrates her Native American heritage by incorporating traditional Micmac techniques, designs and materials. "With formal education in engineering, business and art, I appreciate all types of making—whether the process is by hand, machine, or organization." At MAG, Magyar was one of the artists featured in the 2012 exhibition Changing Hands: Art Without Reservation 3. This is her first Finger Lakes.
