Andrew Salgado, 1982 | Abstract painter

Andrew Salgado -born in Regina, Canada- has situated himself as one of the eminent emerging painters in both the UK and North America.

He has been listed by Saatchi as "one to invest in today" (Sept 2013), lauded by esteemed critic Edward Lucie Smith as a "dazzlingly skillful advocate" for painting, and been endorsed by Tony Godfrey (author of Phaidon's Painting Today) as an "exciting artist with a particular vision".

Philippe Jacquot, 1966 | Figurative painter

Philippe Jacquot is born in April, 1966. Soon, his favorite subject is the representation of characters. Later he sought expression in both portraits and figure.

He works the pencil and pastels, as well as red chalk drawing, oil and acrylic.

After several experiences in decorative painting and design, in 1990 he decided to devote himself exclusively to his painting.

His past experiences allow him to master glass and metal painting as well as painting on glued materials, giving him the opportunity to express himself beyond the usual means such as canvas or paper.

Flower by Rabindranath Tagore

Fluck this little flower and take it, delay not!

I fear lest it droop

and drop into the dust.

I may not find a place in thy garland,

but honour it

with a touch of pain from thy hand and pluck it.

Childe Hassam | Paysages

Childe Hassam🎨 (1859-1935), a pioneer of American🎨 Impressionism and perhaps its most devoted, prolific, and successful practitioner, was born in Dorchester, Massachusetts (now a suburb of Boston), into a family descended from settlers of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Equally adept at capturing the excitement of modern cities and the charms of country retreats, Hassam (properly pronounced HASS-am) became the foremost chronicler of New York City at the turn of the century.

In our day, he is perhaps best known for his depictions of flag-draped Fifth Avenue during World War I.
