• Elaine Badgley Arnoux
  Biography : The messages in these autobiographical narratives, using Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes to examine the state of the world, are harsh in the manner of Goys’s dark, war inspired masterpieces; works Badgley-Arnoux cites definitive and continuing influences. Although this type of work can be difficult to look at, it is beautiful – beautifully executed and realized. This authentic “from the soul’ art is accomplished through the artist’s innate talent, her almost 70 years of honed skills, and her willingness to remain emotionally open and vulnerable. Badgley-Arnoux gives us a once-in-a-lifetime visual experience with her timely vision of ‘Once Upon a Time’. By, Susan Hillhouse for Badgley-Arnoux’s San Luis Obispo Museum exhibition catalogue.

• Elizabeth Barlow
  Biography : In the spirit of the great portraiture tradition, but deviating from its usual approach, Elizabeth Barlow creates oil paintings of people using their belongings rather then their faces, to explore the human experience. In this series, the artist uses shoes to represent the person who wears them. The deep emotional content inherent in these very personal objects represents rich opportunities for storytelling.

• Fréderic Choisel
  Biography : Art is the result of who you are, not necessarily what you know My career as an artist began when I was eleven years old, when I started taking my first photographs with an old Pentax camera. This initial exposure to photography led to my pursuit of a degrée at the Ecole Supérieur d’Etudes Cinématographiques in Paris, France. After my studies, I was privileged to work with Gaétan de Rosnay. His Post- Impressionistic style and focused enthusiasm for painting became the primary influence in my studies and inspired an exploration of classical artists from all over the world. This led to my study of light and form of the 17th century Dutch and Spanish painters, as well as later French artists: Delacroix, Courbet, Chardin and Corot. I took my passion for creative expression and the influential artists I admired to start a filmmaking business in the San Francisco Bay Area. While taking countless images, painting remained important to me. The actual physicality of working with the materials and the canvas is something that I missed as a photographer and filmmaker. I merged my photographic experience with my early focus on painting in the style of classical realism to develop a more abstract impressionistic style of painting. Being influenced by the works of Cezanne, de Kooning and de Stael, I continued to utilize my passion for capturing moments of inspiration and then turning the photographic images into paintings that have complete lives of their own. My motivation in making paintings is based mostly on the need to communicate. What interests me in the process of painting is the possibility of reorganizing our perception of reality. I navigate between arbitrary figurative elements originated by the mind and the abstract representation of those elements in a search for a certain new exactitude. Inspired by everyday, simple situations, I am motivated by the need to share a visual perspective in an unconventional ways. Every day, I extract various elements fr Exhibition : Solo Exhibitions 2014 Galerie Trescia Paris, France 2013 “The Sound of the Trees” Galleri Citi, Burlingame, CA 2012 Epicenter, San Francisco, CA 2009 Fringale, San Francisco, CA 2008 Park Side Gallery, Carmel, CA GROUP EXHIBITIONS 2013 “Heads” Galleri Citi, Burlingame, CA 2013 Introduction III, Galerie Citi, Burlingame, CA 2011 “Local Connections”, Long Island City, New York 2007 Park Side Gallery, Carmel, CA 2006 Park Side Gallery, Carmel, CA 2006 Winstanley-Roark Fine Arts Gallery, Cape Cod, MA 2004 Wilde Meyer Gallery, Scottsdale,AZ 2003 Wilde Meyer Gallery, Scottsdale, AZ
  
  
• Nina Dietzel
  Biography : German photographer Nina Dietzel invites viewers to explore the unusual subjects captured in her veracious and contemporary work. In her Geister series, she examines the ghostly grace of the Mothball Fleet, a floating cemetery of abandoned Navy, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marine ships near San Francisco. These iron ladies are a source of ongoing environmental controversy, as they will leak toxic metals into the Bay until the site is closed for good. Dietzel’s beautiful photographs pose silent questions and invite discourse.

• Derek Lynch
  Biography : Derek Lynch’s urban landscapes series is based upon sociological, geographical, and architectural issues that are intrinsic to the urban story. Incorporating photo images derived from Bay Area architecture into the work, Lynch dissects, fragments and rearranges images to create new interpretations of our world. As nature has surrounded mankind to shape identity, here the artist explores what “else” surrounds us to make us who we are today. Media includes photo-collage, polymers submersed in ink, pencil, markers, acrylic paint and permanent pigment.

• Kuzana Ogg
  Detailed Description :
  Ogg’s use of color and lustrous, complex surfaces are hallmarks of her contemporary work. Her subjects range from dresses, female forms, and flora— and most recently, instrumentation diagrams of machinery —to full abstraction. By ghosting colors and line fragments through transparent layering—both planned and spontaneous—visual harmony is created, and the result inspires the viewer’s interpretation.
  
• April Dawn Parker
  Biography : April Dawn Parker uses her abstract paintings to explore the complexity of the natural world as it intersects with the manufactured. Taking visual inspiration from such varied sources as cartography, aerial photography, beehives, and intercellular forms, each work is an abstract map that shows a broad view of a scene overlaid with zooms, simultaneously showing multiple levels of magnification. Parker has a BA from Brown University and studied at Yale University School in the MFA Graphic Design program. Her work is included in numerous private and public collections.

  Having moved around a lot during childhood and after, I became fascinated by maps at an early age. From birth to age 17, I lived in 17 different locations and all told, I have lived in 39 different homes. Conceptually, I think both about maps as things that explain layered physical spaces, allowing you to see from varying distances, while also thinking about mapping as capturing a story or history. With my work, I create abstract maps that explore specific times and places. As maps distort reality through reduction and simplification, so does memory through reconstruction; the mapping I create in my work merges these various layers of distortion. The visual building blocks that inspire my work range from aerial photography, cartography and geometry, to cellular imagery and natural history.
  
• Unai San Martin
  Biography : Photogravures are made by hand, from polishing the copper plate to pulling a print from the etching press. It is a time consuming and unforgiving process, but I favor a slower approach to image making. As in cooking, it is a way of putting my soul into what I do. It is hard to describe the emotion of pulling my first gravure, in a little garage on a winter night in Spain, about 12 years ago. I knew that moment that I was hooked to the process, and that months of struggling with all the variables that gravure has were worth it. Since then, I have refined my work by only pursuing images that resonate with the gravure process. And in every plate I make, I have the expectations of the very first experience."

• Sahba
  Biography : Much like a sculptor, Sahba uses palette knives, fingers and brushes, to shape her painting. The pouring, dripping and scraping of paint, adjust and refine its layers to reverberate the intrinsic emotions involved from its onset. These paintings are a direct result of the artist’s personal experiences; yet take on a life of their own. A viewer should allow themselves time and freedom to find their own interpretation of the work. Exhibition : EXHIBITIONS 2012 Group Show, “Introduction One”, Gallerie Citi.
