Bern - Painter


I create these images as painted expressions of patterned organic energy. Blending the subconscious and sacred geometry into unfolding symbolic harmony. Inspired by the symmetry of nature

Kevin Moeller - Painter

The need for expression, the basic creative urge, is there inside all of us. This urge emerges in many diverse forms of art.
Art has been called the "language of the soul" and perhaps, this is the best that can be said about it.
For the painter, his voice takes the form of visual images, reflecting colors and shapes that speak to the viewer.
To hear the painters voice just open your eyes.

Jeffery Reid - Painter


The paintings are a representation of the coming end or beginning of the new world. Initially, the purpose of the nude women is to seduce ones curiosity, but they are actually angels at war or preparing for war. The shaped canvases are decorative sculpture additives meant to enhance the individuality and inventiveness of the art. As the end nears and wars, rumors of wars, earthquakes, floods, and pestilence occur on earth more frequently, I hope my work directs ones understanding of these signs of the end which will come with fire.

Byron Gin - Painter


I find my inspiration in the simple and the ordinary: a coffee cup, a coat hanger, a man walking down the street. People and things easily overlooked, yet all deserving of a second glance. While my work is representational, there is a hint of abstraction, most evident in the backgrounds of my paintings. Spare and ambiguous, they are often simple fields of color and texture, sometimes suggestive of planes and surfaces, always inviting interpretation as to mood or narrative.

Chris Bernacchi - Photographer

Chris has been in the building for a number of years and has extensive work that he's compiling into a book. Some of it is of this building and the neighborhood so pay attention you might be there in a picture or two.
He has his personal website here if you want to see more of it. I posted this quote for him because he would appreciate it.

Swearengen
: Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair or fucking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Bernard Colbret - Photographer


Emergence, energy, motion, and emotion, implied in a gesture, are frozen in time.
Skillful execution of composition, setting, styling, lighting, and careful attention to detail, combine to make every Bernard Colbert image dynamic, contemporary, and unforgettable.
