Stephen Cimini
Based in New York City, Stephen Cimini refers to his compositions as random symmetry. Using layered oil paint with a cold wax medium, he deftly turns indiscernible patterns into balanced, meditative compositions. Although he briefly studied at the San Francisco Art Institute and the School of Visual Arts in New York City, Stephen primarily considers himself to be self-taught. Along with being the recipient of the Pollack-Krasner Grant and being a finalist in several international art awards, his work is also held in numerous private and corporate collections internationally and he exhibits in galleries throughout the United States.

Justin Summerton
Justin Summerton’s surreal paintings reveal his fascination with and passion for the landscape of New Zealand, where he lives presently. Justin’s work is at once haunting and serene, representational and dreamlike. Justin sees New Zealand as an oasis, and through oil paint he translates the raw, natural elements around him, such as the sea, mountains, rugged coastlines, and volcanoes, into powerful, fresh scenes. His work is held in the country’s largest private collection, the Wallace Arts Trust Collection, and he has exhibited throughout the United States and New Zealand. See more of Justin’s work here.
