Steve Brunetti

As an Artist and a lover of the great outdoors, I find inspiration and relaxation when painting Mother Nature's world. There is a tranquility in creating the depth of water, trees and sky. I wish my viewers to be able to feel as if they and put their hand into the trees and wade in the waters that I paint so that they can experience the same calm that I feel when a get lost in my work.

Karen Suponski

Being an artist often means seeing our world a little differently than others do. I love the play of sunlight and shadows as well as reflective light in metals and glass. I hope to convey to the viewer the simple beauty that is all around us.

Chris Ivers

Explorations of the colors that are imperceptible to the naked eye are endless. When that barely visible layer collides with light, the creativity begins! Pigments, transitions and reflections all play their part. My goal is to have my viewers fall into that world to discover what they normally wouldn’t take time to see.
