RADHA MEHTA
My watercolor series “I AM LOVE” started as a form of empowering myself through the Love Language of Affirmations, but when sharing it with my closest friends, I’d quickly recognized that the phrases and bold imagery and colors I used in my paintings to convey feelings of empowerment resonated with each of them, leaving them more inspired.
DEBRA REABOCK
As a San Francisco based abstract photographer, I enjoy transforming imagery of modern urban architecture and Nature into unusual geometric shapes, forms, and stunning designs. My intention is to encourage the viewer to lose their common interpretation of the subject and transcend boundaries for an expanded outlook.
KAY MARSHALL
My work is experimental and process orientated. It explores themes of memory, impermanence, and the relationship between opposites: order versus chaos, structure versus gesture, and line versus form.
MICHAEL ENDICOTT
My work portrays our elemental connection to the nature. After the click of the shutter, the photograph itself then becomes the object of my artistic process. I sculpt into it digitally to create abstract or surreal effects while retaining detectable realism. I strive to provide the space for you, the viewer, to create your own story of elemental connection or meditation in it.
CATHERINE GUTIERREZ
Art, to me, is about connection… a connection to oneself, a connection to others, a connection to Mother Earth, a connection to the Universe. In my work, you can find yourself experiencing the awe of nature or the feeling of floating through another planet. While living on our world, there are other worlds we occupy in the depths of our conscious and subconscious. Dreams influence my paintings, and in my dreams, I’ve flown through these worlds and danced as if I was levitating in the clouds.
