After leaving Bradford Art College in 1979, with a
Diploma in Art & Design, Trevor began his career as
a trainee art director at a London advertising agency.
Those were the days before computer graphics
and Trevor was delighted to be drawing for a living,
producing magic marker visuals of advertisements and
packaging for a variety of big brands and household
names. In 1986 Trevor became a freelance artist.
He started with advertising work from contacts he

had made while employed in the industry, but it was
illustrating for greeting card publishers that rekindled
his childhood love of painting. Today, Trevor’s paintings
can be found reproduced on prints, cards, jigsaw
puzzles and collector plates all over the world. His
favourite subjects always recreate the past on canvas,
reflecting his interest in steam and vintage vehicles
and his love of the countryside.

Tracy Hall is a watercolour artist who specialises in painting nature
in detail in all its forms. Working exclusively in watercolour (both
transparent and opaque), she enjoys the versatility of the medium
and paints from life, photographs and imagination; more often than
not all three in the same painting. Her images include everything from
flowers and pets to wildlife and miniature art.
It was after discovering miniature art in 2007 that a new and exciting
chapter began, enabling Tracy to balance commissioned work for
private and commercial clients with something purely for herself. She
was instantly hooked and deeply honoured to be presented with
several awards when she first exhibited her miniatures the following
year, including the prestigious Gold Memorial Bowl from the Royal
Miniature Society.
Her work has also been used to raise funds for endangered
wildlife and conservation and she is an elected member of several
international miniature art societies. Tracy continues to exhibit regularly
in the UK and abroad and works from her studio on the shores of
Scapa Flow in Scotland - surrounded by paintings-in-waiting!

Sheila Lee Elstad lives with her husband in Breezy Point, Minnesota.
Originally from Baltimore, Maryland, Sheila Lee was close with
her Irish grandmother. “Nanny” amused Sheila Lee for hours on
end, telling stories from the old country and that love filled with wit
and the Sisters at Blessed Sacrament School gave Sheila Lee
wonderful childhood memories. In addition to those memories she
has a perspective that sees the humor in practically every situation.
To the viewer of her paintings, there is no such thing as a casual
glance. Each painting captivates. As Sheila Lee’s stories unfold on

the canvas, you smile. For it is her philosophy to depict characters
enjoying a simpler time, with a healthy dose of humor.
Sheila Lee has developed her own unique style and approach and
she leaves typical trademarks in many of her paintings… a Celtic
cross, a shooting star in night skies, calico prints, quilt patterns,
a white mutt with black spots. Not overly fond of cats, Sheila Lee
often depicts a feline in some kind of trouble, being antagonized,
or on the verge of getting into trouble. Children are often playing
pranks somewhere in the canvas.

A BOUT TH E AR T IS T
Debbie Hummel-Marconi is totally self-taught without any outside
influences, which allows a style that is exclusively her own. She just
creates from her heart, choosing subject matter that is guaranteed
to make people smile. Her uniqueness is refreshing and very,
very different, setting her apart from her peers. Her style has been
labeled whimsical, humoristic, and narrative.
She feels that her childhood contributed greatly to her work as her
family was never at a loss for laughs. She believes it was because
of this that her humoristic spirit has carried through into her work
and given many people much joy. Anytime she can make someone
smile or lighten up their life, it is a truly wonderful thing for her, truly
a gift. Objectively, if her art has given you cheer, her goal has been
accomplished.
Road Icons
Philosophically, she wants her paintings to say something and not
used to match sofas or fill wall space. Her work is detailed, colorful
and extremely verbal, most always telling a story. She also refers
to her individual titles as an added bonus as they are equally as
entertaining.

For over 15 years K’s Kids have developed
toys that provide developmental benefits to
kids in their early childhood. The industry has
recognized their effort by granting them over 60
international awards. Every piece of a K’s Kids
toy is designed for the healthy development of
a child. To help parents understand the benefits
of the toy to your child, K’s Kids have developed
a “Learning Triangle” which summarizes what
a child needs in his PHYSICAL, MENTAL and
SOCIAL developments.
The Learning Triangle provides a reference
to 9 icons which offers parents an easily
understandable guideline of what kind of
developmental skills a child can get from
playing with such a toy.
