She is very interested in painting flesh. Through experimentation she continues to find new ways to improve upon the realism in her figures. These figures are juxtaposed against environments that are unexpected. At this time she is... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | Mike Carson graduated from The Minneapolis College of Art and Design and diligently worked in that field for 7 years. Throughout that period he became drawn to and somewhat obsessed with painting.
He ultimately left his design career to become a full-time artist and pursued his love of painting. His work can be found in private and corporate collections throughout the United States.

 | Being a Mixed Media Artist, I primarily depend on the found or discarded object to achieve the elements of color, shape and texture that are so important in my work. By assembling the discarded objects into a new format, a new juxtaposition, there is a "Sense of Salvation" in giving these objects, which were once lost or forgotten, a new life. Ultimately my work is about: CONSTRUCTION (the object in its original state) and DECONSTRUCTION... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | During November-December of 2009, Jack Gerber was proudly included in the celebration show “150 Years and More” at The Philadelphia Sketch Club, and was shown with Rockwell Kent, Paul Wescott, N.C. Wyeth, Thomas Eakins, Benton Spruance and Daniel Garber, among others.
“Jack Gerber reveals an artist who found his voice early in his career, creating a world of intensely colored figures in enigmatic spaces that look familiar but it’s not the world we know. Benton... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | From the epics of Peter Paul Rubens to the sublime graphics of Mondrian, Donato Giancola's oil paintings mine classical draftsmanship, narration, and aesthetics of composition to lay a foundation rich in historical associations. Italian figuration, Baroque lighting and Flemish perspectives merge with the power of modern color field theory and post-modern narrative concepts to create convincing illusions and contemplative stories. The power of myth is a favorite inspirational source drawn upon by Donato to create... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | The vocabulary of my artwork comes from the language of maps. These map symbols are crafted out of the same elements as those found in art.
The theoretical basis of my approach is defamiliarization: presenting something as both recognizable and foreign. It is engaged by using map symbols outside the reference of maps, synthesizing historically and culturally disparate symbols, and placing them in formats that have their own system of meaning. The latter of these... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | The self-portrait confronts the viewer with an outward representation of the inner self. Here is the exterior as seen by the interior.
The self-portrait as a character introduces a further element. While the self-portrait implies that the artist is showing us the truth, a representation of the exterior in disguise conveys the impossibility and doubleness of this endeavor.
Through the seemingly private world of self-portraiture and autobiographical narrative, I hope to present a compelling fictive world,... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | Andrea Kowch (b. 1986) was born in Michigan, where she received her BFA at the College for Creative Studies. Largely self-taught and influenced by the work of American Masters and the Old Masters of the Renaissance, her paintings and illustrations are best known for their rich symbolism, mood, and control of medium, leading her to be described as a “powerful voice emerging, demonstrating a highly sensitive consciousness that informs a culturally laced symbolism.”

 | Jacques is a born print maker. Ten years ago he had a life altering experience, and found his calling. Jacques draws all of his images from life. He must have an up close and personal experience with his subjects. In doing so he captures the soul of each character. The images are surrounded, by detailed patterning which enhance each piece of art, with a depth and richness, unique to this process. Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | "I was born to paint. Nothing was ever as compelling for me as picking up a brush, and reaching for a tube of paint. The choice came later. Searching for the connection between heart and soul, intellect and skill, and the ability to put it together, has been my life long journey. Creating a piece of art that satisfies me completely is a challenge and offers me the ultimate frustration with the pursuit of the... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |

Although a third generation sculptor,... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
 | Phillip Thomas approaches his work as a “meta-archeologist.” His paintings are reliquaries gleaned from the monuments of Western art history. This proposes an injection of another world into the work’s original narrative. This world is of a different time and place, conjured out of Thomas’ careful attention to the Caribbean climate of his birth and the multifaceted contemporary culture he now exists in. It is derived from his polygamous cultural identity as a young man... More » Click to view this artist’s work » |
