                                "Dancing with Nature​"

Helen Moody
Exhibit July 21st - August 21st
“As an artist, I am fascinated  with rich color and the infusion of light, which has a distinct impact on my  paintings.  My goal is to create visually inspiring subjects using light and its varied patterns”. 
“My work has been inspired by the surroundings of my childhood and home state, Florida. I call the images I focus on “forgotten Florida”… old architecture, unique gardens and remote beaches and waterways. In addition, the techniques I have utilized have been shaped by studies which have taken me across the United
States and internationally to France and Italy. Instructors and mentors have included such notables as Morgan
Samuel Price, Alice Williams, Jean Chambers, Connie Winters, Jim Draper, Leonard Wren, Robert Johnson,
Chang Quiang, Mary Garrish and most recently Dreama Tolle Perry.

Nature has its own way of creating rhythm with movement.  The rhythm is always changing like a dance.
​​As I continue my artistic journey, my style continues to evolve into what I describe at this time as relaxed post
impressionistic.”

"I'm in Love with Blue" Exhibit

Pat Setser Sep 23rd - Dec 10th 

Reception Nov 18th 6pm - 7:30pm


Picture
Bio: Pat Setser always loved to draw and paint, to capture the beauty of nature, the “happy” colors and the warmth of a peaceful setting. A scholarship at age nine to the Art Institute in Ohio exposed her to charcoal, paint and pastels. High school and college furthered her appreciation of many types of art.

She works in all mediums, moving from acrylics to pastels and from colored pencils
​ to watercolor. Lately Pat has been creating more and more mixed media pieces.

Traveling to Europe exposed her to the works of so many artists and much beauty. Pat fell in love with the old architecture, the amazing craftsmanship, the many museums. Seeing so many art exhibits highly influenced her own creativity and helped develop her own style.  Recently, Pat illustrated several children's books and created book covers as well.  She also does commissioned work.  Click Here to find see her online exhibit!

Please Click on the Image to get more information about the piece.

Artist Statement: 
I have always loved the color blue. From my earliest days, I chose Blue (aqua, turquoise, light blue). I find that I paint in blue quite often. It may be because I love blue skies, the blue of the ocean, or the color of aqua silk. I find there is peacefulness and beauty in this color. I hope that these paintings give you feelings of peace and beauty also.

Michael hopes that those viewing his photography will see the wonder of nature through his eyes. Mr. Cenci’s photographs are on display in many corporate collections and local galleries and have been published in The Daily Mail, The Daily Telegraph and The Mirror in Great Britain, as well as other international media.

Picture

Valentina was born and brought up in Bulgaria.  She studied at Kiev´s University of Cultural Arts.  In 2008 she finished the unique Bulgarian school of untraditional art with the well-known Stefka Baldjieva.  All her art is done with her fingers (no brushes are used) directly on the canvas, without preliminary sketches or compositions on a subconscious level.  Valentina expresses her inner world through the harmony of colors, including them as elements of universal harmony.  Created on a subconscious level, her paintings radiate energy which flows into every one who sees them.  For Valentina, painting is a purification, a love and a joy.
