Don DeLeva : Painter
“Don
DeLeva is an American born portrait / landscape painter known for his angular
compositions and collage like imagery. His vision and approach to art is based
in automatic thought and the ability of the mind to create its own reality. Don
DeLeva uses visual textures and impasto applied paint to suggest light, shape
and image. He uses these qualities to portray a mood of changing thought and
discovery in his work. DeLeva's imagery lends itself to a viewer's personal
interpretation reminiscent of Salvador Dali or Frances Bacon.”

Julie Maxham : Photographer
“I have long been
influenced by the paintings of Edward Hopper and his tense relationship between
the beauty and desolation of open spaces. In my photography, I strive to carry
that narrative of beautiful loneliness forward. I have always been drawn to simple,
clean lines but am I forever conscious of the feeling of emptiness that
accompanies them. My intention is to depict a world that is both instantly
familiar and strangely alien.”

Mark O’Connell : Painter
“The human face has always been a constant source of inspiration
to me. Just a pretty face is not what
makes me want to paint. I am fascinated
by the cultural, emotional or the unusual in people and what they can
offer. It is my goal to reveal more than
just what you see on the surface. “

Michael Harrison : Sculptor
“Michael's works are heavily influenced by the forces of nature.
As a Seattleite who grew up in Kansas (spending considerable time in basements
riding out tornadoes) the power of the physical world is evident in the big,
thoughtful works he creates. Collected by public and private patrons, Michael's
pieces always compel the viewer to spend more time getting to know them.”

Mellorama : Painter
“My desire in painting is to create a feeling that you may have

unknown”

"I love the process of making
stuff with my hands. I really like creating a new style or a new way of working
with materials that I normally wouldn’t use for a certain application. I make
things I guess because it is my way of understanding this life. As long as I
can remember I was always drawing. There is nothing like the way I feel after
finishing something new. Some times the feeling is more prominent than others
but it always makes me feel good, like I left something of me behind. It’s more
than esthetics, because even pieces I don’t like as much still have something
of myself in them."
