Carol Carter is a contemporary watercolor artist based out of St Louis, MO. She is such a prolific painter that it proved nearly impossible to select just seventeen images to feature out of the hundreds documented throughout her website. Her subject matter is incredibly varied, ranging from swimmers, nudes, flora and fauna, to interiors and landscapes of the Everglades and Italy. In spite of painting such a vast range of subject matter, her work remains consistent with her personal style; painting with an electric color palette, she saturates values of light and dark with a brilliant range of unpredictable color that often takes on the effect of solarization. Her technique shifts between wet-in-wet application and controlled execution, producing work that is peppered with an incredible amount of detail and spontaneity. Carol’s mastery of watercolor and divergent way of seeing the world is apparent in her remarkable paintings. ( by Brittany Zagoria)

Artist D-L Alvarez ”Closet”
“I really have only one medium, that of historic narrative, it manifests in various shapes in any one exhibition, but all those shapes are elements of whatever story I’m retelling at the time.” - DL Alvarez
The photographer Adam Fuss is best known for arresting, brilliant colored photograms that break habits of seeing. His work investigates the elements of life and the basic materials of photography. Part of the appeal of the photogram for Fuss is its directness. The objects depicted in the photogram came into physical contact with the very paper on which the final print appears. The experience is somehow more tactile, more visceral.

Neurons in the prefrontal cortex are naturally organized in layers, which are highlighted by these Rothko-esque blobs of color.
