Maud Gatewood (1934–2004) is an exceptional figure in the art history of North Carolina and the American Southeast.

Anna Buckner is a painter in the most expanded sense. An interdisciplinary artist and maker, she creates compositions at the intersection of textile patterning, graphic design, and painting.
