 Judy Metcalfe, Virginia born and bred, studied art and worked as an Interior Designer for 25 years until three years ago when she decided to devote her full attention to painting. She paints primarily watercolor in a highly realistic style using bold colors and strong sunlight. Her view of reality is full of sharp contrasts and intricate, colorful shadows.In the past three years she has won numerous awards in regional Massachusetts Art Association juried shows in Concord, Marblehead, Lawrence, Barnstable and Newburyport. She has exhibited work in an Academic Artist Association national show, two New England Watercolor Society regional shows and one American Watercolor Society international show in New York. She is currently represented by The Churchill Gallery in Newburyport, Ma. and Artistic Appetites Gallery in Hyannis, Ma.  Robert Streeter was born in England and studied photography in London at Regent Street Polytechnic . He worked for more than thirty five years as a professional industrial and advertising photographer before turning to fine art photography. His current interest is to work with 35mm color transparency material, combining images of suitable clarity and density to produce master black & white internegatives (dodged and shaded) and then to produce a final silver gelatin fibre base photographic print.Mr. Streeter takes reality and alters it in his dark room. Without the aid of a computer, using strictly traditional darkroom methods, he creates surrealistic images that are subtle and at times haunting. Breaking all basic photographic laws regarding enlarging, Mr. Streeter physically bends the film during the making of the Black and White inter negative which enables him to produce intriguing images with controlled distortion. His work has been described as "mysterious and evocative" and as having "intense motion". |
