Little Man Bowens, (born 1940) is an outsider artist in the classic sense, in that he is untrained and driven to paint daily to quiet his mind.   His visions include spacemen & rocket ships, cowboys, kings, leggy space women & super heroes.  Inspired by his parents and faith and having given up alcohol, he is fueled by coffee and soda water and paints with supplies he gets from the craft and hardware stores on his bus route.  Most of his paintings are double-sided. When he runs out of board he paints on anything at hand, scraps of wood, cardboard boxes or his clothes & shoes.  He favors basic colors of black, white, red, yellow, and blue with the occasional green.  He almost always includes text and circular motifs, acting as framing elements, which gives his work a compositional graphic complexity.

Ike E. Morgan, (born in Rockdale, Texas- 1958) has always enjoyed painting portraits.  His earliest known paintings from his high school days were historic portraits and he painted George Washington from the dollar bill when he was in the Austin State Hospital, where he resided from age 17 through age 41.  Ike works in series based upon the materials he has on hand and what is in his mind.  His work can be created with a wide range of materials.  Ike is a confident man with a great personal style and loving manner. He paints every day,  enamored with historic portraits and occasionally adding in pop culture figures from his youth, birds, or animals. This past year Ike transitioned to living in a nursing home and still paints everyday.  He is currently obsessed with painting sheets of money.

Andy Don Emmons was born in 1966 in Fairfield, Texas, about an hour south of Dallas. He went to school in Huntsville, graduating from Sam Houston State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1990. Now, he lives and creates art from his studio in the town of Waxahachie, building a sculpture park on the grounds of an old chicken farm, and commuting to work cattle at his ranch outside Fairfield. His art cars have been shown far and wide, including at the Bob Bullock Texas History Museum in Austin, and his work is in the collection of the Art Museum of Southeast Texas, in Beaumont.

His life and work are permeated with an outsider sensibility, with rural imagery mining the lineage of earlier Texas regionalists like Otis Dozier and Jerry Bywaters. However, the feel of his work is more eccentric and visionary, in some ways kin to the paintings of Reverend Johnny Swearingen, whom Andy met as a young man. His work also feeds off the psychedelic vibe of bands like Thirteenth Floor Elevators and The Butthole Surfers, so it is no surprise he is a performing musician as well, playing as a part of Outhouse Moan and Inferno Texino.
