With backgrounds as different as their personalities, Medrano and Anderson become one in their works of art creating original one of a kind works of art. "Our process is always the same" the duo explains, "We shoot, paint and build what our individual hearts desire. Then through the shuffle of life they find their way into each others frame." Katy's beautifully soft black/white photos giving comfort and balance to Patrick's hand on soulful brush strokes and custom fit structures. A unique balance of light and darkness. 

"Patrick Medrano's 3D works, paintings, and interactive devices intrigue viewers into searching within, to face a sometimes not so pleasant reality of the world around us, including ourselves.
