Jose Royo, 1941 | La luce del Mediterraneo

Jose Royo: "Mi piace credere che i miei quadri raggiungano luoghi lontani e persone che non hanno mai visto la luce del Mediterraneo.

È una bella idea che i miei dipinti possano permettere loro di sperimentare la luminosità di questa parte del mondo".

Si possono tracciare paralleli impressionanti anche tra il lavoro di Royo e quello del maestro spagnolo Joaquin Sorolla.

Entrambi sono nati a Valencia, entrambi hanno avuto una formazione classica, entrambi sono "maturati" in stili di pittura che catturano la drammatica essenza visiva della loro terra natale, Valencia e del Mar Mediterraneo.

Andre Lucero | American Plein Air painter

Andre Lucero is an American painter whose work is primarily composed of plein air landscapes, still lifes and figurative paintings done from life. In combining the draftsmanship of the Academic School along with the color and brushwork of the impressionists, Andre’s work captures the drama of common places and objects as seen through his personal artistic vision. An avid hiker, fly fisherman, and gardener Andre believes that even the most simple of subjects can be elevated, taking on a meaning greater than their initial appearance.

William Dalton | Golden Waves | Photographer

For many years I traveled the world as a global VP for a fortune 500 fragrance and flavor company . I witnessed first hand the wonders and beauty of our world. I have attempted to photograph some of the beauty of our world to share with others. Many years ago I came across a wonderful French term, "objet trouve". Webster's Dictionary defines the term as, "a natural object found by chance and held to have aesthetic value, (e.g. driftwood) especially though the working of natural forces". I attempt to create "objet trouve" in my photographs. The wonders I find in nature are photographed in an attempt to create art. All photographs of animals, including birds, are taken in the wild. None of my work is of animals in zoos or rehab facilities. I am a published wildlife photographer but a true amateur.
