Amanda Dunbar is a Texas-based artist who gained acclaim at an early age for her oil painting skills. Amanda Dunbar began painting in an after school art class at the age of 13. Her spontaneous and advanced works acquired significant interest immediately. Recently, Dunbar has moved away from the primarily representational focus of landscapes in her paintings derived from the visual schema of Impressionism, towards a more abstract approach that encompasses grids within a single canvas and multiple canvases or “tiles” of varying degrees of finish. Her goal with the combination of these canvases seen both as independent paintings and then combined as a larger image is aimed at making explicit for the viewer that they become an integral element towards the “completion” of the art work, as well as a challenge to consider landscape painting as a vehicle for philosophical contemplation.

For the past decade, Audra Weaser’s work has focused on nature. Her interests are in creating physically charged images reminiscent of watery landscapes. These abstracted scenes are formed from rhythmic manipulations of pigmented materials. Her process includes building layers of color to form intuitive, organic compositions. Through a sanding process, she navigates back into the surface. In this excavation, an image of motion and presence emerge from a white expansion. They invoke images such as swampy bayous, mystical forests, or light shining in from gathering weather. They are an essence of what is unseen and translated into a visual and poetic experience.Weaser was raised in Southern California and lives and works in Los Angeles. She earned her M.F.A in painting from Claremont Graduate University. She has shown widely in Los Angeles and has exhibited nationally and abroad. Her work is in private and public collections in cities around the world such as Hong Kong, Abu Dhabi and Singapore. Shop Artist.

Whether a couple embracing in a seedy nightclub, a prostitute flaunting herself under a streetlight, or a huddle of petty criminals under an otherwise abandoned bridge, Brassaï found poetry in the derelict. “The thing that is magnificent about photography is that it can produce images that incite emotion based on the subject matter alone,” he once said. Best known for photographing candid night-time scenes in the Montparnasse district of Paris—an area populated with artists, streetwalkers, petty criminals, and prostitutes (subjects that initially scandalized the public)—Brassaï was dubbed the “eye of Paris” by his friend, the American writer Henry Miller. Originally born Gyula Halász, he later acquired the pseudonym Brassaï after his Hungarian hometown Brassó and made an international name for himself with books such as Paris de nuit (Paris After Dark) (1933) and Voluptés de Paris (Pleasures of Paris) (1935), in which he captured both the seedier sides of the French capital and its high society. “There are many similarities between what we call the 'underworld' and the 'fashionable world,” he said. Over the course of his career he photographed many of his artist friends including Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, and Alberto Giacometti, as well as prominent writers such as Jean Genet.

Cecil Touchon’s art and poetry stem from his interest in the modernist history of abstraction and his belief that language and commercially designed objects are too often relegated to purely functional roles. In his poetry, Touchon takes fragments of language from sources like spam email, manipulating them into purely aesthetic sounds and arrangements. Following the same principles, his collages and paintings deconstruct shapes derived from the Central Mexican landscape or architecture into abstractions. His work builds on the ideas of modernist artists and poets who sought to reduce painting and collage to its essence and create a new visual language. Shop Artist.
Christine Tonolini's work is an attempt to capture the connection between delicacy and strength. The intention is for her art to exude beauty while reflecting the wonders of the natural world. The titles she assigns to her pieces serve to unveil their meaning.These expressions stem from her personal experiences, encompassing moments of trauma, self-discovery, and forgiveness. The symbolism within them, along with the ethereal beauty and gradual decay of flowers, has always captivated her profoundly. Like many others, Christine finds flowers intriguing, their allure fascinating, cultivation challenging, and the sheer joy of being in their presence irresistible. She is fascinated by the way they burst from dirt and soil only to return there, by their tenacity to reach for light and grow between cracks in concrete, the fact that some possess both stamens and pistils, and the countless shapes, colors, scents, and medicinal properties they exhibit. Christine hopes her work gives tribute to the natural world in an unexpected way. Shop Artist.
Chryssa Vardea-Mavromichali was a Greek-born American sculptor best known for her monumental assemblages combining neon, bronze, aluminium, plaster, wood, canvas and paint as well as found objects, which prefigured both pop art and minimalism. Vardea studied in Paris and San Francisco, and in 1955 moved to New York, finding inspiration in the spectacle of the advertising neon signs of Times Square. Her interest in communication and the use of letters was first expressed through small baked-clay tablets entitled Cycladic Books 1955, followed by tablets and plaques with single letters, or variations on letter forms. Using neon since 1962, Vardea was one of the first artists to transform it from an advertising tool into an art material.

Harriette Joffe is an American artist of this new century and the last. Her touchstone was the East End of Long Island during the formative years of 20th-century American Art. Less introspective than the European-born First Generation Abstract Expressionists who she knew and worked with, her coming of age after World War II allowed her work an exuberance that betrays her New World roots. Beyond that fact, no one owns her. After New York, she traveled extensively in the restless way of those born in the American Century: adventure under a beneficent Pax Americana. In New York she had rooted in and discovered iconoclasm and experimentation, performance and landscape. In Italy, France, and on the Iberian Peninsula she found the stubborn relevance of work done centuries ago. In New Mexico and other cultural colonies of Mexico’s El Norte she found landscape again; and, oddly, the still warm trail of Crypto-Judaism’s 15th-century European Diaspora: Magen David and Cross among the succulents. (It followed her back from Spain in her knapsack, that history, sticking in her paint brushes). More recently, she has discovered inspiration and renewal in the Massachusetts Berkshires, now following their downward flowing waters to the sea, back across the Sound to her Long Island upstart start. After 50 years of work, now in the second decade of the 21st century and the seventh decade of her life, she is still searching every day, making art with tools as old as Lascaux and ideas as fresh as her laptop.

Paul Rousso is an American-born visual artist and innovator. Educated at the California College of the Arts, his work is shown at galleries and art fairs around the globe. A prodigious perfectionist, his technique has leapt into the future, as his vision and imagination merge to embrace new conceptual and physical technology the moment they appear on the horizon. The artist lives his context and vehemently pursues his objective. Rousso relentlessly excels at his efforts to evolve as an artist who will put forth an enduring impact on subsequent generations with his life’s work, “Flat Depth.” This concept, which he has been refining his entire professional career, is the logical progression of modern art - to render a flat object three-dimensional, or to collapse a three-dimensional object into two dimensions - and is a fusion of countless complex artistic methods, including painting, printing, sculpting, welding, chemistry, digital manipulation and digital printing. Rousso's fascination with paper - currency, advertising, newspapers, magazines - its history and use, its rise and fall, is an emblematic theme reflected frequently in his compositions. Shop Artist.

Savana Vivas is a Los Angeles based visual artist working predominantly with acrylic and oil on canvas. She has always been artistically inclined and started taking her practice more seriously as a way to process emotions and tell stories. Savana’s earlier work was more abstract, as moving paint on a canvas felt instinctive and therapeutic for her. She then evolved into a more figurative art style to explore larger philosophies about spirituality and universal forces. Her creative process goes far beyond the canvas and usually starts with a curiosity or an experience that she wants to explore deeper. She will conduct endless research and fill her environment with movies, music, books, and images that mirror her findings. She will build out a world around her and slowly see the art starting to emerge. Her goal is to express herself visually and challenge others to consider life from a multitude of perspectives.

Selina Waxman, (b:1967) and raised in Montreal, Quebec, was immersed in a family enriched in art appreciation. Recalling her upbringing, she reminisced, "Growing up in the smallest of apartments, my vibrant flame stitch walls were adorned with prints by William Louis, Henri Matisse, Rembrandt, Donald Judd and Frank Stella…while everyone else was in the monotony of beige.” Always a great storyteller Selina studied film communications and screenwriting, and her narrative prowess caught the discerning eye of an executive at Saturday Night Live, opening doors that eventually led her into the dynamic realm of advertising. For over two decades, she seamlessly balanced her corporate world with her passion for art, maintaining a studio that stood just a stone's throw from her office. Yet the canvas beckoned louder and in a mid-career pivot, she transitioned into a full-time abstract artist. Since then, her works have found homes across the United States and Canada. Shop Artist
