Jym Shipman - Once Upon a time in the early nineteen seventies there was a boy. This boy was very sick and had to live on a bed in a plastic oxygen bubble. Due to his illness he was alone without the usual ways to meet people and make friends. One day the boy's mother brought him a box of crayons and a pad of paper. He took the tools he was given and created a new life for himself. In this new life he created a healthy boy with friends and a world that understood and accepted him. Weeks had past and the boy soon left the "real" world to never come back. Weeks turned into years and the boy's mother greatly missed him. The mother reached into the boy's new world, with the help of a great doctor. Together the mother and the doctor did what they thought was best for the boy and brought him back to their "real" world. In the years since, the boy has grown into a man. His physical health has improved. However, because of his travels when he was a boy, he remained between the two worlds. This leaves the man today...

Jean Le Baron - Art is an expression of emotion, of time suspended, of finding beauty in unexpected places. My favorite form of expression is paint on canvas; however, I have never met a surface or medium I didn't like. Creating art is a solitary business, so in order to interact with other artists, I am a member of several art groups, and I am currently serving as President of The TOMS RIVER ARTISTS CO-OPERATIVE, Exit 81 (TRACx81). ...

Lubov Meshulam Lemkovitch - Lubov Meshulam Lemkovich I am primarily a portrait painter. Whilst I experiment with different genres both abstract and realistic, my favorite genre has to be the art of portraiture. I am fascinated by life drawing; I love the people that I depict and I see in each of them a unique personality and beauty that is found in every man and every woman ... I communicate with the sitter and in the process of drawing I understand more and more about them; so much so that I can really relate on an individual basis to everyone I draw In the process of portrait painting there is a lot of psychology ... ultimately I believe the final result is a mutual understanding, rewarding to both parties ...

David Rocky Aguirre - ************** To me, Art seems to be a universal language. It can be used to portray something beautiful and uplifting, or to portray a tragedy to motivate and move people to act. To motivate them to help in some way as in Picasso's "Guernica 1937". I have a wide range in creative interests, from most forms of painting- oil to watercolor and on to print forms, sculpture, photography, film and computer animation. Contact me for any creative projects you may have....

Barry Scharf - My professional career began in 1973 when I earned my MFA. In my early works I felt my paintings where an illusion and only seemed to partially fulfill my desire for a more complete expression. Now my works explore the interplay of transitional reality and abstract concepts in oil on canvas and digital photography. It is provocative to me to express myself through physical, intellectual, and spiritual endeavors . My art offers me the forum for this expression. The viscosity of paint gives scale, while it's liquid flow carries the emotions of a poetic heart. The formation of shapes into composition express a thoughtful logic and the unity of all elements breaths life into the spirit of the work. In addition explored shapes and content fits with my digital images. Pursuit of excellence in design, craftsmanship and expression are my artistic goals. To create images that provoke thought and communicate our connection with nature, spirit, self and each other. ...

Alan aims to develop a good relationship with people, whatever their background, by bringing to them a style of art that not only the artist but also the people can enjoy and understand. Alan also says that the styles of painting he uses may change now and then, simply because society and people change. Apart from an inspiring train journey around Europe many years ago and all the wonderful things Mother Nature has to offer, Alan says that much of the inspiration he gets for his paintings nowadays comes from two sources. Firstly, it is good to keep up-to-date on what people want style-wise ...
