Francis Sevitt, 1942
Sevitt born in 1942 in Dublin, Ireland. Sevitt Francis art works are predominately women, not associated with any particular time or place -although Renaissance and Moorish influences are evident, writing alone or reading in groups of two mounting golden staircases, holding bouquets of lilies, or meditating near a vase of roses by a open window. The artist's studies of life and ambiance long gone are filled with gentle passion and sensuality. Through intricate details and rich, lustrous, yet somehow muted colors, each canvas conveys a personal imagination that suffuses everything it beholds - and represents - with quiet magic. Sevitt Francis work has been the feature of many exhibitions throughout Europe, Israel, Canada and the United States.
Boyan Bolyarski
Occupation - portraitist. I paint mostly with oil paints, but I did and "pastel" period. Destination of the workplace - Sunny Beach. While the profession "street artist" is despised by the guild, to the dismay of my teacher Gregory Spiridonov - light his finger, despite 15 years I was there. And no scruples I can say that this job has taught me things that would not be going to university, things that everyone must find for yourself. Small secrets beyond academic stereotypes. They always let you step ahead. Well, I am grateful to this period, although it was very difficult and full of experiences. This period has made me what I am. Now it's time to work to your soul.

Shapcott studied illustration for two years before switching to fine arts for the remainder of his studies at Paier College of Art in Hamden, Connecticut, graduating in 2007 with a diploma in Fine Arts.
