George Smith is a 25 year old abstract digital artist and has been creating for 8 years. George's surreal vision of the world portrayed in his work is filled with overlapping layers of lines, photos, text, and abstract shapes that all come together to form a unique and original point of view. He describes his heavily photo-manipulated work as "controlled chaos" that combines his own photography with 2d and 3d elements.

Aaron Krach is a creative personality who was born in Michigan, raised in L.A. and now calls NYC home. He wants his art to make people laugh (in a good way) and hopefully cry just a little (maybe on the inside?). Aaron is never without his camera because the world is never without a hideous something that needs to be recorded. His first novel, "Half-Life" was published in 2004. And he never turns down a chance for a long walk on the beach at sunset. Okay, the last sentence is not true.

Serita Lewis feels incomplete without her camera. It is simply a part of who she is, much as her eyes and ears are. It is the 1st non-living thing that she would grab if ever she ever needed to flee a fire.

Fascinated by motion and the unseen I try to capture it with slow shutter speed and with the use of different filters stacked on top of each other. Busy streets can become empty, breezes become visible as they move the branches of a cherry blossom. A forest clearing becomes a daydream landscapes when all waves of light but infrared are filtered out. One cannot see it, but the camera can and it unveiles it for you.

I have started to work with things that will trigger childhood memory's in someone and perverting it a little with a modern twist of culture. My recent work with legos has inspired me to push the proverbial envelope a little bit further and further in each series. In my latest work "Plastics for Porno" I poke fun at the porn and the culture that is stereotypical of that industry today. Growing up in the bible belt I felt it would be a great place to start trying to make people uncomfortable with my art. I am looking for 1 of 2 reactions, either you love it or hate it. I do not feel that there should be any other reaction from my work. People getting upset at the sight of plastic toys doing drugs and screwing amuses me.

I enjoy making art. It fills my every day. Though I went to art school, it didn't take my love away. Love, lust, sex, romanticism, and happiness are my inspiration. In my work objects are transformed through fetish into organisms that release the essence that their owners put in them, often, that essence is the message they wish to send to their significant other. Besides drawing I also make collages and photographs. I like making small drawings because I believe it is important to be intimate with the viewer. Traveling to warm places also inspires my work.

These images capture the the quiet, empty world of night, when parking lots lay fallow, when meters are allowed to rest and sidewalks can breathe. In tracing the fugitive contours of shadows cast by the patient lights of the night, I draw the attention of the nighttime passerby and reveal what the night holds. In this way I am sharing the night city with its daytime inhabitants and making visible something that is normally hidden. I photograph these drawings because, rendered in chalk, they themselves are fugitive and may only last until they are hosed down in the morning. I want to draw attention to what is likely overlooked, or perhaps so familiar that it is essentially invisible.

For some people creating a photograph is a way of capturing memories, for others is a tool of artistic expression.... for me is more of a reminder of how wonderful life is.

I'm a Boston native living in Los Angeles who never thought he would miss the cold, rain, and seasons in general so much. I take pictures whenever I can find the time and enjoy photoshopping them to my heart's content as I try bring my "inner style" to the surface. I aspire to be an internet mogul and consider my broadband connection as important as my own circulatory system.

Born in Michigan I have lived and worked the past 13 years in NYC. My primary working methods are gouache drawings on paper and printmaking. My process begins with mark-making that is circumscribed by segments of time and reflect my efforts to establish order‹for example, pairing lines side by side that eventually become large forms or patterns. The patterns are derived from counting people, marking footsteps, or setting time constraints to creating abstract, intuitive time lines. The topographical nature of my work, both imagined and natural, evolves from my subconscious as I transform the two-dimensional space with the memory of my own physical

In day and night, an American town has an odd character if you look at things the right way. Trees are monuments, and a window is more sinister than a shadow. These are the suburbs of strange dreams, where trees glow with the nobility of a portrait of a king, and each window is a new oddity. In day and night, light and color are only as real as the mind interprets, and photographic film and paper record these oddities, pushing the truth of a memory as far as the dreaming mind requires.

Pon-Pon does not possess any photographic talent to speak of, but is somehow constantly surrounded by bits and people of beauty, hence the necessity of the pictures. Pon-Pon would like to continue taking pictures, but, alas, her camera was stolen from her at the Tomatina this year in Bunol, Spain. Oh, the statement. Pon-Pon thinks every picture contains a secret and that's why they are all so intimate and unique. She hopes you like looking at them as much as she likes taking them and she also still hopes to get her camera back.

I hope that I can help people to de-condition their thoughts, habits, and routines. When we become stuck in our own repetition, our thoughts stop. I want my art to let you peer behind the walls you create for yourself. I hope that you can look at your body, the rooms that you live in, and the environments you travel through- and instead of seeing what you're expecting to see, see a new place, a new thing, that has changed from the day before, and will keep changing, as will you.
