David Barnett
Combining found elements with those fashioned by my own hand, my work encompasses two- and three-dimensional collage as well as sculptural objects. Infused with a rich sense of history, the essence of my work lies in the age-old struggle between nature and the man-made industrial world. My challenge is to convey that sense of conflict […]
David Press
Inspired by artists Naum Gabo, Alexander Calder, and Raider Nelson and mathematician/model builder Theodore Olivier, I continue in 2017 to use straight lines to produce three dimensional curves. One present focus is the suspension of multiple shapes at once. Website 17 Riverview Place Hastings on Hudson, NY
Deborah Maier
I’ve long been fascinated by working with ephemeral materials—sand, soil, spices, tea and coffee—and the interplay that manipulating them sets in motion: physical and emotional serendipities. Some images are animated at speed under the camera, while others beg for more attention: layers of pattern, exactitude of pose or expression. After some resistance, I now find […]
Diane Brawarsky
My mixed media work explores and creates connections between objects and images, focusing on actual and imagined links between place, past and present. Using traditional and innovative techniques in my painting, I juxtapose oils and wax on wood or canvas surfaces with found remnants. These artifacts of personal histories are essential to my artistic process, and […]
EB Gregor
Living and working as an architect in Hastings on Hudson, surrounded by the natural beauty of the area, as well as many intense thinkers and artists, I attempt to both explore and find peace. A house is a physical shelter, a place to live and to dream. It has a constructed meaning and it is […]
Eleanor Goldstein
I move from a moment in nature to the back-story of cities dying and being reborn, to faces/people in the middle of their personal stories. In all instances, if it touches me I need to catch it and express it. And as for my choice of medium, I select each one for how it moves […]
Eleni LaSenna
My artwork might be described as mostly abstract and organic in nature, however I tend not to confine it to a particular definition or style as my enjoyment comes from experiencing and exploring the unlimited possibilities that allow me to express creativity. I continue to be influenced by certain Asian philosophies and artists as well […]
Elizabeth de Bethune

Emily Kotchen
Mark-making is, for me, a meditative state. I love manipulating materials—both conventional and unorthodox. No matter whether I am working in paint or pencil, with thread or with found objects, my goal is to create moments of deep feeling—often inspired by the passing of time and my own childhood memories—through an economy of shapes and […]
Jane Kang Lawrence
SATURDAY only My paintings and multi-media collage are born of curiosity about the world traveled, coupled with the world I can create. Besides responding to architecture, I am also responding to my relationship to my near daily commute into Grand Central Terminal. New York’s architecture provokes and induces thought; emotions are aroused by looming buildings, […]

Jerzy Kubina
The Communist era during which I grew up squeezed an imprint on me, a method of perceiving and living in the surrounding world, which in turn defined a method of creating. Getting involved in the New York art scene in 1988 “opened a window” in my soul. My first solo show in New York was […]
Katerina Spilio
I am interested in visual subjects exploring authenticity and identity, feminism and destruction. I am curious about the constructs of creativity in bilingual cultures and the limits of language in different cultures. I am disturbed by injustice, and my response was to create a depiction of language’s potential ambiguities. Language is power, and lack of […]

Kristin Javier
It is only in the past four years that I have incorporated my artistic yearnings into my life as a mother, former teacher and translator, and recovering over-committer. Mosaic art has since become a very meditative journey. The manual breaking of glass, marble, rock, or found objects and then setting them piece by piece into […]
Lea Carmichael
While I have been focused on my book, “The Migraine Book: A Memoir in Pictures” in recent years, this year I’ve chosen to feature another genre that I have worked in most of my life: abstraction. It fascinates me to try to create images that have no reference to the narrative world, letting go of exterior […]

Mary Fennell
As an artist, I’ve always found myself split between two disciplines: photography and mixed media. My photographic images reflect what I see in the world around me. They are my eye looking outward. My mixed media work, on the other hand, is my eye looking inward. In my photographic work, I look for compositional elements of […]
Mia de Bethune
Though I’ve been a painter for many years, the last five years have taken me into the realm of weaving. These weaving s have taken many forms from sculptural installation to traditional objects to incorporation into painting. http://miadebethuneart.weebly.com Save Save SaveSave
Mitchell Goldberg
My work explores dreams, memories and the passage of time using found images and thin transparent layers of acrylic paint. Distorted, altered and rewritten is how I prefer to approach the past; time always changes our perceptions of life. Collage has been a favorite medium of mine for forty years. Using fragments of images from […]
Monica Shulman
I believe in the power of art to transform a space, to create a moment, and most importantly, to evoke emotion, beauty, freedom and authenticity. I live for color, bold design, strong contrasts and texture. As a photographer I love to watch the light, seek out colors, imagine a scene in black and white, and […]

Raine Gifford
These days I’m mostly working among three related currents. Square watercolor “tile” mosaic – which sometimes feel like scapes (land, sea, sky). I think of these as being “about” my appreciation and love of color and material (water color/pigment, paper, brushes, marks); they are also an attempt to address and involve negative space, with light […]
Rosalind Schneider
SUNDAY only I seek to create work that transcends its source to form a new reference to a visionary landscape. The power of the natural environment is a continuing source of inspiration.I create layered landscape images with multiple realities that progress from the real into abstraction and a fusion of the two. They are expanded […]
Stephanie Buck
My world is of earth and spirit. Nature is at once a deep source of inspiration, and a comforting healer. More than anything, the quality of light which radiates from and about the subject is what I am moved to capture. I try to express the essence – the spirit of a place, a person, […]
