May - July 2008

Colleen is a young, aspiring local artist to the city of Boston who has found an outlet for herself through expression on canvas.  Her very "urban" taste of expression and meaning is represented by way of modern abstract, symbolism and texture.  Also, she enjoys using such things as Chinese characters, numbers and letters to get her point across on canvas.  Colleen graduated from Northeastern University after having studied psychology and business.  It was not until her mid 20's that she began to explore her artistic side by beginning to paint and also going back to school to get her cosmetology license.  She looks forward to sharing a career in both art and 'hair design & make up.'  She is inspired most through personal emotions and feelings.  Colleen works out of her art studio in Medford, MA and looks forward to any time she can spend painting.  Colleen can be reached at: girlspikes@yahoo.com.

Artist Statement:
I have lived in California and various spots throughout New England. I Graduated from Montserrat College of art in 2000 with a degree in Illustration. My work is a combination of photography, painting, and various collage techniques. I have recently returned to one of my first loves, picture taking, and will be showing a number of new photos in addition to my Illustrations. My Influences range from Alphonse Mucha to Dave Mckean from comic books to classic illustrators.

I wish I had super powers, but sadly, do not.

I've exhibited work in Boston (Artmosphere gallery) New London (Hygienic Gallery, Ct.) and Newburyport (Licorice & Sloe) as well as at the Wenham Museum and The Mingo and Nolia galleries.

Clients include, Rolling Boil Press, Paper Dragonz publishing and Wicked Good Comics. I'm represented by Serendipity Art Sales.

I recently signed with Schiffer Publishing to do my first children's book, after my gallery obligations have been fulfilled I will be taking a break from exhibiting work to concentrate fully on producing art for the project.

I love Art. I love Telling a story with a picture. I love showing people how I see the world. My goal is to make the fantastic believable.

As always, Fight the Good Fight.

April - July 2008

Joshua has been involved in digital photography for almost a decade, graduating in 2000 from Montserrat College of Art with a BA in fine arts. He has a strong background in photography, including film and digital techniques. He used traditional photography, as well as positive to negative film cross-processing, and adobe photoshop to create all the artwork seen in the show.

Often centered around the figure, both actual and representational, Joshua works with concepts of texturing, subject/space relationships, and creating a narrative through visual means.  This body of work shows many of his interests. Some of those being places he has visited, thoughts of life/death/rebirth, astrology, the darker and lighter sides of the human spirit, music, fantasy, history, and physical beauty represented in the figure and landscape.
