John Davis Held

My work is known for having a strong sense of light and peace. I love the richness of pigment that my work in pastels have, and the subtleties of glazes in my oil paintings.

 

 

Zahava Sherez

Being multicultural and influenced by many traditions and by immigrants’ struggles, I learned that the light that connects us to all and everything is vaster than what divides us. That is my influence for this work.

 

 

Jeremy Kiraly

Conflict and chaos are often the motivations for my work. I seek to evoke and explore uncomfortable and hopeful perceptions within myself and perhaps others.

 

 

Connie Rodriguez

I do not paint what I see, but rather how “it” felt in the moment. I take my emotional response from that place in time into the studio to capture and create an intriguing story.

 

 

Ellen Hausner

My work explores the themes of evolution, transmutation and transformation. I aim to give visual form to the forces of nature, allowing deeply hidden elements of the psyche to come to light through an image.

 

 

Judy Salinsky

“The Fever” expresses the grace and beauty of the rays I have encountered while scuba diving in the Pacific. These creatures are truly the ballet dancers of the sea, gliding along effortlessly as their sunlit wings cast larger than life shadows across the ocean floor.

 

 

Carol Wontkowski

I can often “feel” what the light on a subject or object is trying to say to the camera. There is an emotional connection to the images I capture.

 

 

Dave Kwinter

In the past, I have focused on painting and computer art. During the past twelve months, however, I have developed a keen interest in making assemblage, where I combine found objects in interesting ways.

 

 

Elise Nicely

Painting life’s transitory moments to share with my viewers is the overarching goal of my art. The world around me is my inspiration. Landscapes, seascapes and floral displays are the subjects of my work.

 

 

Nancy Overton

I make papier mâché birds by forming wire armatures, covering them with newspaper, and “decorating” them with a variety of colored papers. The hand-formed wire frames and the paper choices make each bird unique.

 

 

Jenna Pynn

My fabric quilted work, from wearable art to wall hangings, are inspired by nature in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. Color and texture fascinate me the most.

 

 

Jeff Lipman

I love to create paintings that celebrate depth of color, shifting form and tactile quality. I want them to be an abstract window on the wall. It’s fun to hear what others see inside them.

 

 

Janet Carlson

My digital paper collage is a juxtaposition where my fashion design and quilting background meet up with Photoshop. This contemporary folk art is influenced by the multicultural diversity in South Florida.

 

 

Deb Bergren

My postings of this painting on Instagram and Facebook drew many compliments on the subject and my simplistically detailed rendering. Most of my work is in this style, whatever the subject.

 

 

Jennifer Keeney-Bleeg

My abstract, landscape and still life art aim to capture moments in time and within daydreams by focusing on the colors, moods, scents and textures that cement these moments in our minds.
