Jennifer O'Cualain: Artist Information
This year’s commemorative festival poster, titled Tangerine Twilight, was painted by artist Jennifer O'Cualain. The artwork reflects the warmth and color of the Tubac landscape and the spirit of the festival. O'Cualain will be available throughout the festival to meet visitors and sign posters at the K Newby Gallery and the Rotary booth. A full signing schedule will be posted on the festival website prior to the event.
Brian Schader: Artist Information
Phoenix artist Brian Schader creates one-of-a-kind, handcrafted fire tables that blur the line between functional design and sculptural art. Each piece is thoughtfully built by hand, combining durable materials with inventive forms that invite both warmth and conversation. Schader’s fire tables are as much about atmosphere as utility—transforming outdoor spaces into gathering places through light, texture, and flame. No two are alike, making each table a distinctive statement piece designed to be lived with and enjoyed year-round.
Mark White: Artist Information
For over 30 years, Mark White has created kinetic sculptures that are both visually captivating and expertly engineered to last. Collected worldwide, his wind-driven works bring continual movement and elegance to outdoor spaces.
Handcrafted in Santa Fe, New Mexico from premium materials including stainless steel and copper, each sculpture is finished with thermally applied patinas designed to withstand the elements. Over time, the verdigris patina on copper naturally deepens, enhancing the sculpture’s beauty and individuality—making each piece a lasting investment to be enjoyed now and passed on for generations.
