Quona Bullivant

 My work is frequently based on the sculptural qualities of the industrial – power stations, pylons, wind turbines, trains etc – and how they live within our urban and rural landscape; becoming somewhat invisible through familiarity. However, my intention is not to romanticise but to keep a balance between the sculptural and the obvious environmental issues.
I also enjoy painting remote landscapes as found in Norway, Sweden and parts of the UK – for example, the bleak but magical U.K. South East coastal landscape of Dungeness, a large shingle headland of scientific interest known for its plants and wildlife – and for its large nuclear power station!

Antonio Ehrenzweig

Antonio Ehrenzweig was born in Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico on August, 1962. He studied Architecture at the Iberoamerican University in Leon, Guanajuato (1984-1988). Ehrenzweig worked as a professional artist for 25 years. He had 23 solo and 40 group exhibitions since 1980, and completed 37 murals for individual and corporate clients. Presently, He lives in León, Guanajuato, Mexico.
Ehrenzweig is influenced by a desert place called “The Silence Zone”, near to his native city Torreón, at the Central North of Mexico. He was drawn to the natural colors of this area and the fossils prevalent there. Later, living in a coastal city, Ciudad Obregón, Sonora, he was fascinated by sea life and the movement of water. Those three themes—fossils, sea life and the movement of water became his artistic language.

León F. Ruiz

I have been painting since I was a child. My family introduced me into the world of art through poetry, painting, and antiques. As a child I had three uncles that made a living painting murals in cathedrals, selling antiques, and wrote poetry. These three men where a huge influence in my life as an artist and as a person.
My work has been shown through out the United States and in Mexico over the years. I plan to keep on working on my career as an artist but I also want to teach. One of my goals is to show the rest of the world the beauty of art and how it can make life so much more fulfilling.

Sacha Suarez

Raised in Miami by Cuban immigrants, my parents believed there were no limits to anything you set your mind to. I grew up drawing, painting and molding any medium I can get my hands on. After earning my first art award at age 14, I knew this was my calling. Life leads you to many paths and I continue to adventure in experiences that enrich my future.
As a Photographer and Artist, my mission is to stir the soul while discovering my own. I draw inspiration from my life experiences and seek to uncover hidden thoughts or desires in others and reveal a new level of consciousness. Whether through my camera lens or through the paint strokes on a canvas, I aim to capture the beauty or despair in this world to create an alternate reality.
