Jerry Di Falco - Photography inspires my visual art and also serves as a key element in the creation of my etchings. The images I employ originate from my own photographs, as well as those my research into the digital archives of universities, historical societies, libraries, museums, and foundations. Upon locating a photographed scene that I wish to translate into etching, I first make several drawings based on that scene. Moreover, using photography allows me to balance documented visuals with my personal interpretations within everyday scenes. I strive to create a convergence between the metaphysical and physical aspects of perceived reality. My etchings attempt to unveil what we mask behind personal assumptions. In other words my scenes unveil what we overlook in the ordinary world. Ironically enough, I blame this failure to notice reality . . . or what I call the phenomena of connectedness . . . on todayaEURtms infatuation with and addiction to the new communicational technologies. My artworks are windows through which people examine the mysteries of human consciousness. In fact, my use of multiple etching plates to create one etched design helps reinforce the illusion of seeing a scene through a window. Each individual area in my multiple-plate etchings becomes a windowpane separated by ...

Alan Soffer - Alan Soffer began studying sculpture and clay in 1973 transitioning to abstract painting in 1985, through a breakthrough program at Bennington College with Sandy Stone. His abstractions have been in the pursuit of the unknown, unique, and personal depths of the unconscious. Rather than confining his energies to a single medium, he sensitively chooses materials that accommodate the concepts at hand. Early constructions were in clay and found objects, then discovering printmaking and photography, which he learned on his own. Finally, focusing on painting with acrylic, oil, and wax. Encaustics allowed him to marry a sculptural component to his painterly approach, following his studies at Ringling School in 1998. The hot, pigmented wax's inherent translucency perfectly supports his vocabulary for expressing space from the microscopic to the galactic. Whatever the direction, the work is always influenced by Joseph Campbell, the noted mythologist, who Soffer considers his mentor. He organized the first national encaustic conference in the US in 2005 and continues teaching encaustic technique as well as abstract painting primarily through workshops. Major one person shows have been presented at: DCCA, Wilmington DE; Borowsky Gallery, Phila.; Rosenfeld Gallery, Phila.; Widener U., Chester PA; Atlantic City Art Center; Robert Roman ...

Charlie Kelly - The viewers interaction and response has become an important aspect of how the work is perceived. The viewer is free to explore their perception through a pictorial view. By reimagining images and visually drawing the audience into a field of light in a series of compositions. The aim is to then naturally draw the audience into this methodology of capturing light and intrigue the viewer by utilising all its different aspects. Non-specific objects exhibit paradoxically, creating an organic fusion between form and colour. Each painting has a presence that far exceeds its physical dimensions. Space is the purview of our reality. Physical space can pervade our internal space, our mental landscape. Light is explored by looking at how the medium allows non-linearity, shape shifting, fluidity, liquidity and temporality motion. The discordant vibrancy, catching the eye of the viewer is combined with historical references to the history of the ornament, in particular stained-glass windows and their ecclesiastical framing and architectural forms. These are transformed by using abstract structures, reworking and palimpsest sections of layers. The work continuously changes, evolves an responds to the last series. ...

Jean Judd - Every quilt tells a story and every quilt is unique. The common factor in all quilts is that fabric and thread are used to create a piece of art. To many viewers, cutting up perfectly good pieces of fabric into little pieces and then sewing them together again into a totally different looking piece of fabric, is unbelievable. Who would want to do this day in and day out? The dedicated quilt artist and fabric collector! I have always enjoyed putting jigsaw puzzles together and the same person who enjoys jigsaw puzzles (discovering a finished masterpiece constructed of hundreds or even thousands of little pieces) is drawn to the magic of quilt design. Each quilt design is a puzzle waiting to be put together. The design starts in the quilt artist's mind and is eventually transferred into reality with the final stitch in the quilt. Many times the original design is nothing like the finished quilt but this just adds to the excitement and the design potential for the next quilt design. What starts in the mind is often transformed into a bigger, better and more dramatic finished quilt than the artist ever imagined. I prefer to make my ...

Herbert Bennett - When works are presented without sharing their deeper mysteries and secrets, they seem to get lost. The digital images I produce are a process of what I call distilling complex images and color patterns from totally chaotic,'abstract' mono-printed acrylic paintings. Going into the'subconscious image potential' of a subatomic, much deeper image realm lies a world that defies but still complements the conscious ART-iculation of our binary brain's limited potential. Mathematical and scientific principles abound here and are brought to the surface to create the expressions we call ART. The A-ability to R-restructure T-truth. New truths(paradigms) are then created from chaos to new realities for us to be inspired(in-the-spirit)and to be enjoyed. Herb...

Terri Higgins - The deep ache that replaced the pleasure you used to have, the words someone said that you keep turning over and over in your head, the void inside that nothing seems to fill; these are some of the subjects I paint about. Location: Washington, DC Check out my website and blog:
