    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 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 »

    Frank Webster

    My paintings typically depict post-industrial landscapes and draw on the aesthetic traditions of minimalism and realism. The work has been referred to as "dark pop" or "strip-mall Morandi." Grounded in reality, the paintings nonetheless abstract the ordinary: the everyday world is made transcendent and strange - and is imbued with an ethereal and melancholy beauty. The sharp juxtaposition of technology and romanticism are evocative of the moment - and environment - in which we find ourselves presently. My work contemplates the paradox of this harmonious and destructive co-existence. More »

    Fernanda Cohen

    We all communicate through words as words translate into visuals. My visuals are my words. I believe in drawing not as mere media or style, but rather as the ultimate way to deliver ideas; a combination of self-expression with an essentially bold interaction with the viewer. As a visual artist as well as an idealist, I comprehend almost everything through subtlety and humor. I play with universal ideas as I watch them mock my existence. I ultimately simply continue an infinite dialogue on a blank piece of paper. More »

    Amy Talluto

    I am working with landscape in painting to explore new ways of representing space and form. I am also interested in using psychological content and color to investigate the impact of nature, and natural space on the mind. Individual works describe scenes that are sometimes bright, lush and flowering, or sometimes dissonant, murky and foreboding. Tree branches twist and writhe, color turns acidic, and sky flattens to meet form and then deepens back into space again. A shifting psychological mood pervades the group as a whole, moving between realms of magical fantasy, sparkling beauty, anxiety, and the sinister and mysterious.

    ROTATE / REPEAT / SCALE / MOVE / SUBTRACT is a series of abstract works on plywood I've created over the last four years; in it, I try to deliver the purest aesthetic experience with the simplest, and most economical means possible. Physical aspects of my work are born entirely of low-fi, accessible materials that can be purchased at any Home Depot. I restrict myself: to thin-but-sturdy sheets of plywood (cut, in a narrow, cinematic sweep of 84" x 24"); to a palette of six colors (carefully chosen) of average acrylic Latex house paint; and to tightly rendered graphic compositions which obliterate a typical reading of 'background' and 'foreground.'

    K. Shelton

    I record material decomposition, damage, breakdown, and the effects of Entropy; the inevitable dissolution of matter, the measure of loss within a system, the downward spiral from order to chaos. They are photographed with available light, and concentrate on the forms and colors produced by, and discovered through serendipity. I do not touch or physically interact with the photographic subject, but strive to record it 'in situ'. The photographs are my attempts to rescue discarded objects, and record the delight I find in fleeting moments. I strive to emphasize what is experienced, rather than what can be readily identified.
