Debra Hurd | Palette Knife painter
Art and music are my passions but it's all art to me.
Internationally acclaimed artist Debra Hurd studied art at both Southern University in Chattanooga, Tennessee and the Ringling School of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida. For 15 years she was a graphic designer in Florida and Austin, Texas.
She is also an accomplished pianist, having studied music since early childhood. Debra's wild boogie-woogie and honky-tonk style still finds her in the recording studios and at live performances in Austin. She loves jazz, classical, and salsa styles, too.
Jim Salvati, 1957 | Conceptual Figurative painter
To look at a Jim Salvati painting, is to experience a snapshot into the soul of his subjects.
Each person portrayed in his work, which is thick and textured with oil paint, is telling a story about the life of the person, the emotion of that moment in time, their world surrounding them, and a warm sense of the human condition and its uniqueness.
"We all have stories,” Salvati says, "and I like telling them".
Charlie Chaplin | Smile, 1936 | Modern Times
"Smile" is a song based on an instrumental theme used in the soundtrack for the 1936 Charlie Chaplin (1889-1977) movie Modern Times.
Chaplin composed the music, while John Turner and Geoffrey Parsons added the lyrics and title in 1954.
In the lyrics, based on lines and themes from the film, the singer is telling the listener to cheer up and that there is always a bright tomorrow, just as long as they smile.
"Smile" has become a popular standard since its original use in Chaplin's film.
It was used as the theme song on NBC-TV'S The Jerry Lewis Show from 1967-69.
