Helen Bayer

Disposable politics. Each portrait is based on an image from one of the free daily papers distributed at the London Underground- quickly read and immediately discarded by commuters. My materials are cheap- marker, watercolour, highlighter and ballpoint. The likenesses are approximate and vaguely sinister- close enough for Government work. Venue: Court & Spark

Marea Judilla and Edith Corra

Marea Judilla & Edith Corra approach the act of creating from a multidimensional perspective incorporating visual spectacle, design, and up-cycled materials. Our combined backgrounds in art & design re-set the stage by up-cycling resources and birthing art into this pre-apocalyptic era.

Faith Gabel

I am a writer by trade and when the internet revolution took off, I was asked to combine my writing with graphics so as to make the information more user-friendly. I found a new  love- Photoshop- and began designing at work. Soon after I picked up a paint brush and discovered another love.  Because of my love for both media, much of my work combines the two in different ways such as by using pen and/or charcoal evident in some of the pieces I am showing here.

Erika Garcy

I do not follow formulas when I make art and I never know what the final image will look like when I begin. My process is random, chaotic and personal, and my ideas often develop at the same time as I am drawing. This method compliments my inspiration for these paintings‐ the commotion and clutter of everyday city life. Venue: Archip Gallery Theater Website: www.ErikaGarcy.com

Melissa Irwin

My artwork is influenced heavily by the people around me and the places I have visited.  These pieces are focused on the play of light versus shadow.  A simple black and white sketch can capture interesting shapes created by shadows that would ordinarily be overlooked.  My work is rooted in realism but with the hopes of creating an interesting visual of the people closest to me. Venue: Vespa Properties

Sarah Mostow

The specifics of a scene are not important to me: I'm after color and light.  My work resembles an oil sketch –a fresh trace of visual thinking, a painting still in the process of coming to life. Venue: Vespa Properties Website: http://paintingsdrawingsbooks.blogspot.com/2010/02/blog-post.html

Allison Parker

Painting directly from life without using photographs, I hope to take the viewer to a specific time and place.  This body of work includes autobiographical scenes: my studio, a spontaneous rooftop view, and travel sketches of the California coastline.

Gilbane Peck

Gilbane's mastery of sculptural assemblage allows him to collect and recycle used and discarded objects to give them new life. He creates poetic relationships through the juxtaposition of these seemingly unrelated objects in new contexts. This work poignantly addresses ideas about the impact we have on our environment. In today’s world these ideas bring a heightened sense of urgency and give the work added significance. Venue: Vespa Properties Website: www.myspace.com/gilbanepeck
