Kim Frohsin, who now makes her home in San Francisco, was born in Atlanta, Georgia in 1961. She studied at San Diego State University, the I'Institut pour les Etudiants Etrangers, Aix-en-Provence, France, and the Academy of Art College, San Francisco.

Her work is held by the San Jose Museum of Art, the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, the Office of the Governor, State Capital, Sacramento, and the United States Department of State. Her work is also in numerous corporate and private collections, among them the Morgan Flagg Family Collection, Buck Fine Arts, Adobe Systems, Inc., Neiman Marcus and the Gap, Inc.

Frohsin began exhibiting in the San Francisco Bay Area in the early 1990s, and in 1993 was included with Nathan Olivera, Manuel Neri and Stephen De Staebler in an exhibit of "Four Figures from the Bay."

Frohsin is at home with painting, drawing, monoprinting, and mixed media. Her subjects include the female figure, landscapes and cityscapes, as well as “objects" and series that attract her attention, and which are most often autobiographical in nature.

 Award winning artist, Peggi Kroll-Roberts, was trained at Arizona State University and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Peggi worked as a fashion and advertising illustrator before making the transition into fine art.

Using intense color and value to accentuate her subject, she moved into fine art with a bold palette, a love for small paintings and a very loose style that achieves a lot with a few very energetic brush strokes. She prefers to suggest reality than render it.
 
Inspired by her children she paints beach scenes and other aspects of their lives. She also breaks away from the conventional still life by painting scenes of cosmetics and the occasional coffee cup or slab of butter. Peggi's work gives us a new appreciation of our own daily life.
