Robin Freedenfeld's background as a printmaker is evident in the areas of rich, pure color and the smoothness of her surfaces. Even when painting foliage and grass there is a polished quality in the oil painted surface
One of the reasons we love to look at figure paintings is that they allow us to gaze at a person for a longer time than would otherwise be socially acceptable. This is why a painting of a solitary figure can sometimes put us in the role of voyeur. In a Robin Freedenfeld figure painting the subject is in a moment of private comtemplation. But the person we are looking at is just aware of our presence as we are of theirs so that instead of a moment stolen we are in a moment shared
Robin Freedenfield's landscape, figure and still life paintings are in many public and private collections including Western New England College and the Chemical Bank of New York. She has been a recipient of the Massachusetts Artists Foundation Fellowship and received numerous private portrait commission

Eric Wert's background as a scientific illustrator is apparent in his astonishing attention to detail. But the difference between sheer illustration and fine art is inspiration. Merely to depict something in great detail certainly takes skill but to transcend technical virtuosity one needs to have something to say or to be inspire
Eric Wert intends to shed new light on a tradition that began with Dutch still life. Wert literally turns that tradition upside down. In his paintings, we see bouquets of flowers, but they have been pushed blossom side down into the vase, causing petals to scatter. Instead of sheer beauty, we begin to see a story. Wert's accomplishment is to combine technique with humor and narrative
Eric Wert received an undergraduate degree in Fine Arts from the Art Institute of Chicago and his Master of Fine Arts Degree from Northwestern University
Born in Worcester, Massachusetts in 1951, Larry Preston spent his teenage years at the Worcester Art Museum viewing the museum's collection of Flemish still life paintings. He tried to imitate their work and in so doing, arrived at the technique he uses today to paint his still lifes and landscapes. Completely self taught, his work evolved over many years
In his late teens, Larry embarked on what became a successful career as a musician. After 20 years in the music business, He ultimately decided to return to his first love, painting. Upon his return, he experimented with many different styles of painting, including surrealism and abstract. Echoing his love of the paintings he saw as a teenager, his desire to paint still lifes and landscapes eventually took over
He chooses to paint those objects he sees around him. Simple, everyday objects that he finds beautiful and that are all to often overlooked. A single flower or a piece of fruit celebrating the beauty to be found around us. Landscapes inspired by the bucolic scenes to be found around his western Mass home
Larry Preston's work has won numerous national awards including several from The Artist's Magazine, The Art Calendar and many juried art exhibits. He is a recent featured artist in The American Artist Magazine (July/August 2005) and was featured in the American Art Collector Magazine in the April 2009 and the April 2011 issues. His work is included in national and international collections. His work can be seen in many illustrations for newspapers and national magazines and he has been a featured artist for PBS auctions
Painting in oil, linen or canvas Larry has developed a technique, sketching his subject first in charcoal and turpentine then applying many semi-transparent oil glazes over the original sketch. The resulting work has great depth and a luminous quality. A quiet, introspective quality is evident in his still lifes and landscapes
Larry lives and paints in western Mass with his wife Nancy, a ballet teacher
