Mirvia Sol Eckert is a Puerto Rican acrylic artist working in Indianapolis. Celebrating beauty is the fundamental concept unifying all her work. She captures beauty in small moments of observation, in close-up details found in nature, in moments of emotional turmoil & sorrow. She creates in vibrantly colored compositions, or in dramatic grayscale pieces. She uses forms, shapes that are stylized with crisp edges or outlines. Many aspects of her life find their way into her paintings: her Puerto Rican heritage, spirituality, love of family, friends, & fascination with nature. She’s been exhibiting her work since 2009 throughout Indianapolis, Central Indiana, Chicago. Her art can be found in homes throughout the U.S., Puerto Rico, and Spain.

Being born in Vietnam, Cuong Tran had many struggles. Not only was there a language barrier and cultural shock, but he also had to overcome a variety of other challenges in his life. It has taught him to be patient, resourceful, hopeful. The compassion he has developed over the years drives him to truly care about the people he is around.

Cuong is a loving husband, a caring father, a cool brother, and an Asian who loves to dance. There are so many layers to him that you can probably cook a giant pot of onion soup.

He loves to help people get better at what they do and share his knowledge.
