Susan Chapman currently resides in Clarkesville, Georgia and serves as an instructor of art appreciation, drawing, and design for Truett-McConnell College. She is a graduate of Mercer University, North Georgia College, and Clemson University. Her love for design and drawing complements a twenty-year career as an instructor at the elementary, middle, and post secondary level. As a generalist, Susan enjoys the simplicity and directness of drawing. Her sculpted figures give form to the playful mood that resides within us all - a characteristic she considers particularly important in the creative process. "My art, as well as my teaching allows me to carry youthful characteristics with me into my adult life and take joy in the creative process that is perpetually unfinished."

m. Mike Padgett
Marietta

James Michael Padgett has been the East Paulding High School Fine Arts Department Head from 1990-99. He began painting Georgia themes about five years ago. His wish in the near future is to contact the Georgia Department of Tourism and publish a booklet including his work as well as the work of his student's about places to visit in Georgia. Michael feels that it is important for teachers to also have an area of studio, art history or actively participate in an organization such as Georgia Art Educators Association. Many teachers have talents in many different areas, they all teach but some produce art; some study art and write about it, some help others with their professional development.
