Ron painting in the Mohave Desert sketching direct from life in "plein air" is any artist's "secret weapon!" Ron Wilson Fine Art		Ron Wilson Fine Art Technique meant everything during my first years as an artist -- even though they tried to tell me that technique is only the means -- not the end. They're right, eventually I managed to put in feeling. Now I'm painting more simply and choose only those subjects that STOP me, hoping that some of that feeling will be felt in turn by my viewers. While one can learn a lot about art in a short time, it takes a lifetime to make those lessons one's own. Ronald John Beverly Wilson -- BA(SA) Born in South Africa in 1939, Canadian citizen since 1996, Ron is currently working in the United States of America. He started painting in 1974, working first as a broadcaster in radio and TV before becoming a full-time artist in 1992. Holder of 3 awards by juries of the Federation of Canadian Artists.

I like to paint from my life's experiences and memories. I want my paintings to pull the viewer into deciphering their messages. I want my work to be just a starting point for the viewers personal vision. - Moe Jerome www.moezartgallery.com		Anne Martin McCool traces her painting roots to the landscape, a theme prevalent throughout most of her work. Her constant inspiration has been the Northwest, with its abundant water, its gray skies, its tall reeds portray the landscape through her use of recognizable symbols and themes. The earth, the seasons and our relationship to them, all play an important role in her subject matter. Her expressive works have both mystery and spontaneity, and are often compelling narratives that invite the viewer to become part of the visual process www.mccoolart.com
Scratchboard Etchings by Gerene Reid Scratchboard is a reverse-technique medium. Black or colored ink is sprayed or painted over a material called scraperboard, a cardstock coated with white chalk. Using a variety of sharp tools, the artist then scrapes away the ink in the areas to be white or colored. The medium was popular in the 1930s for newspaper illustrations. Gerene Reid is one of very few fine artists currently using this meticulous technique.
