Downe Burns
Downe Burns is a Texas native. He is largely a self-taught artist with a distinct style that has almost universal appeal. Downe’s desire is to create works that are both emotive and pleasant. He avoids the darker moods of the environment, choosing to allow his imagery to create positive feelings. He especially likes things that are old. They produce a feeling of substance rich in time and warm with use. With rich and bright colors, a new life is breathed into something maybe forgotten or gone unnoticed. Burns has exhibited throughout the United States.

Cheryl M. Gross
Cheryl Gross grew up in New York, attended the School of Visual Arts, Hunter College and the Art Students League, and graduated with highest honors from the Pratt Institute. She is best known for the generous use of her palette, utilizing bold strokes of crimson, cobalt and yellow. Recently, she has shifted her focus from urban landscapes and studies of the human figure from interesting angles to a variety of musical instruments, including some with historical significance. In addition to regular shows in the United States, Ms. Gross is a visiting professor at the Pratt Institute and Curator at the Park slope Artist Counsel.

Tom Matucci
Known for his rich textures and atmospheric imagery, Tom Matucci balances abstraction and representation into an exquisite fusion that pushes traditional boundaries of painting. Moody landscapes are surrounded by complex textures. A tactile look is achieved, delighting the sense of touch as well as sight. His work has a captivating earthy quality that strikes a primordial chord with the viewer. Tom works intuitively, evolving from his inner self. He never knows how a painting will end up; he lets the process guide him. Matucci's work is at once dynamic and powerful, quiet and moody. His paintings have been called dimensional poetry, conveying a textural story left to the viewer's own interpretation. Tom's artwork has been exhibited in solo and group shows. His work may be found in galleries nationwide and in private and corporate collections worldwide. His collectors span the globe from Napa Valley to Hollywood, Chicago to Boston, South Africa to Paris.

Natalya Romanovsky
Natalya Romanovsky emigrated from Moldova in 1993 to Cleveland, Ohio, having earlier received her B.S. degree from the Kishinev Art College. Her work combines vibrant color, rich texture and much movement. She starts every painting with a simple sketch, and then as each shape and object "finds it has soul and speaks to her" she completes the piece. Her semi-abstract paintings are from the heart. Natalya exhibits regularly in Ohio and in galleries throughout the United States.

Bob Ransley
Born in 1955, Bob Ransley is a native of Troy, New York. His formal training includes study at the Swain School of Design in New Bedford, Mass. and a degree in Art Education from the University of Massachusetts. Bob’s unique style has a flair of its own…it’s obvious he’s having a good time with his palette knife. He rarely lacks enthusiasm and it shows in his work. There is a confidence exuded in the technique of every piece. His subject matter includes animals, still lifes and florals, and he is in great demand as a portrait artist. He especially loves painting old Turkish olive oil jugs.

Michael Rozenvain
Michael Rozenvain was born in Kiev in the Ukraine in 1963. He attended art school in Kiev and later studied at the Lvov Academy of Applied Art. He immigrated to Israel in 1990. The sensual language and texture takes precedence over the subject matter, but the flowers are always present in all their rich full-blown glory. Vitality is unquestionably the foremost feature of his subject matter and stays in the mind’s eye long after seeing his work. Rozenvain has exhibited his work throughout the United States and Israel, as well as Johannesburg and the UK.

Helen Zarin
Helen Zarin was born in Shirae, Iran in 1970. She was recognized early as having extraordinary talent and studied under the well known Persian artist, Saber. She later enrolled in the Art & Culture Society, a national organization for gifted Persian artists. There she was recognized by the Iranian Society as a “God Gifted Talented Artist.” Conditions in her native country eventually compelled Helen to turn elsewhere for creative nourishment. In Helen’s words “Hard work and God given talent are not enough for an artist to progress and blossom; Creative freedom in the right atmosphere is essential.” She journeyed first to Europe, where she displayed her work in Vienna. Helen has lived and worked in Baltimore, Maryland since 1993. Zarin’s work is displayed throughout the United States.
