Hailing from the forlorn reaches of New England, artist Tristan Henry-Wilson works his unique magic with consummate flair and knowing ease. A steady go-to illustrator for many popular music bands and magazines, he's quickly become a regular presence throughout online and print media. However, despite his growing success in illustration, Tristan still labors away for days on end with a feverishly beatific glint in his eye and an oil-paint dabbed brush in his hand, causing some to cite him as a rising personality in "Nueu American Painting." One thing is clear: this man has his finger jammed on the pulse.

Working out of Barcelona, Spain, Oscar Gimenez was almost genetically forced to be an illustrator. Both his father and uncle were graphic designers and worked at home, so he grew up surrounded by ink and paint, photo lithographs and tight deadlines. Although he had always loved drawing, he initially refused to follow their steps and went on search for a life of stability and fresh air. However, as he notes, 'after trying many other unfulfilling jobs and becoming a frustrated artist, I finally decided to follow the call of the blood. No regrets since'.

Born by the Mapocho river in Santiago, Chile. Forged by the ocean and the desert I bring my strokes to the north and henceforth to the digital world. I was brought up on animated adventures of gods and robots, now I work designing pixelated glitter for hungry consumers and silver screen fantasies.

I always thought it was funny when asked to provide an artist's statement. I always believed an
artists' work should make its own statement and define itself to the viewer. An artists' work can delve into so many complex themes and these will always vary depending on the audience. If the artist felt the need to further explain his work, then dialogue would seem to a better channel than an umbrella statement. If anything I create happens to resonate with an audience and create an understanding without the need for further words than I am content. If not, then here you have it.

With my works, I want to make people aware of the hum they hear in the back of their heads. This soft buzzing sound emitted by plastic and neon, dulled by infomercials. Change is good.

A native Californian, Melissa Contreras grew up dreaming of swimming with dolphins and painting circus posters. She tried to become a marine biologist, but got tired of smelling dead cats in class. She stopped painting because she thought she was not good enough and spent years designing catalogs so she could eat. Melissa started drawing again when she realized not drawing was bleeding her heart and slowly killing her. She began exploring her own creative ideas again, at first doing crafts, and more recently illustrations and painting. Foolishly following her heart, she continues to dream and draw and hopefully, one day, swim with dolphins.
