    Real and imagined, unseen or unrecognized universes coexist all around us. Sea creatures live in the deep ocean; bacteria live in the body; insects make a tiny home within a home; cells form structures to make a human. A small bit stands in for the greater whole, and exists perhaps without the knowledge of the larger piece. I have an interest in biomorphic shapes, pattern and fragile beauty. More »

    I play with paint, mixing brushes and knives to create the topography of gesture. What emerge from this experience are not abstractions, but realist paintings: vintage kitchen appliances, scrumptious trappings of weddings, modern Italian scenes. I am interested in re-contextualizing these subjects, conveying their iconic natures while displaying strong indications of their modernity. Everything I paint has an energy that I strive to bring to the surface through emphatic edges, vivid colors and heavily textured, gestural brush strokes. I live with my husband, Lee Goldberg and dog, Ringo in our Newton, NJ home. More »

    I started painting when i was kid, mostly monsters and explosions. Art gave me new meaning once again and renewed my vigor. Ever since i got into graffiti letters and typography has been a focus of much of my work. Though my love of typography and color i try to make deeply layered paintings that require more then just a glance to judge it. I do believe it is a pop cultural imprint of my generation.The things i have been painting for the lost couple of years i would classify as Modern pop art with a comic-graffiti twang. More »

    I like comic books and ancient mythology, mostly because I think they're the same thing. More »

    I have supported my art as a hairdresser for many years. Recently I have been working on a group of paintings based on the magazine clippings brought to me as proposals by my clients for the look they are going for when they come to my salon. More often than not the style is not really possible to recreate on the subject. Wrong length, wrong texture and wrong color…but to them, the photo of the model or actress is what they want to emulate and I do my best to transform them! I am calling the group Salon Girls. Prior to this group of paintings I had always stayed away from painting hair, opting to keep my bodies of work and working life separate. More »

    I am a 35 year old Dutch painter and illustrator who lives and works in Berlin, Germany. I graduated from the Minerva Art academy (Groningen, the Netherlands) in 2000. My work is made with acrylics and collage on old wooden surfaces like box lids, signs, cigar boxes etc. The materials I use tell part of the story through the stains, old nails,dents and cracks. The other part is told through all sorts of monsters, freaks and oddballs acting out my ideas, and hopefully spark a positive thought in you. More »

    People, their moods and interactions are an ongoing source of curiosity to me. What I'm searching for is their inner personalities, their thoughts and there are stories I build around them as I work. I like portraying feelings of people when they are alone, lost in their thoughts, caught unawares. Those are the special moments that appeal to me most. I love to experiment and use a variety of medium ranging from oil, charcoal, printmaking, clay to the digital medium but my focus remains fixed on the human form. More »

    I am interested in showing the difficulty and discomfort in fully understanding a person. I leave my subjects incomplete to highlight their limitations, as well as my own inability to see the subject beyond the influence of myself. More »

    Nicole Ray, an Ann Arbor-based illustrator, makes cheerful, quirky drawings often inspired by words: song lyrics, a funny phrase overheard in a passing conversation, poetry, a newspaper article, fairy tales. She focuses on line work and unusual combinations of unlikely pairs: a giraffe in roller skates, a fish dropping from the sky on a balloon, hair that turns into a river. More »

    I use photo based printmaking techniques to incorporate scientific illustrations of aquatic algae (e.g. Hypnae), DNA molecules, plant and animal cells, botanical images, and pathogens into my paintings and monoprints. I establish visual connections between my own invented images and these evolutionary forms that I encountered in nature. In addition to evoking an emotional response in the viewer through the manipulation of color, shape, line, and texture, these images also precipitate rational thoughts about both the history and current status of our natural world.

    My work changes each day, and I am finally learning to accept that. Each painting is a new approach that challenges me. I attribute my artisitic A.D.D. to studying Picasso books that covered his career from his Blue Period to Cubism, and my love for eclectic music such as Os Mutantes and Beck. Each song on their records sounds like an entirely new entity from the previous. More »

    I am an artist who is thoroughly fascinated by the clashes in the visual culture of developing cities between urban/rural, and traditional/modern elements. My painting practice is focused on creating and reinterpreting snapshots of urban life such places, especially Istanbul, where I have grown up. I am interested in elements of my architectural practice into my paintings. This involves both focusing more on my "process"- something that was highly emphasized in my architecture education- and also bringing in perspective drawings and architectural collages into painting as a means of capturing the dynamics of city life that form my subject matter.
