Penney-Rohner is the hotel’s artist-in-residence and teacher with soft pastels and oils as her mediums of choice. Spears’ painting style is Ala Prima, working wet-on-wet, with collections at Santa Barbara Museum of Art, the Chicago Lighthouse and Kaiser Permanente. Urry’s works in oil employ a layering of color and glazes to create realism, while her acrylics have a foundation in abstract pouring methods with realistic subjects. Barger creates profound art under the recurring tutelage of a nationally-recognized master Edwin Kayton.
