A D E L E YO N C H A K Adele Moore Yonchak was born in Virginia, but was raised in Tennessee and North Carolina. Always a creative, Adele began her art training in high school in Knoxville and went on to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in both Studio Art and Business from Hollins University with additional coursework from Lorenzo de’ Medici Art Institute in Florence, Italy. It took 10 years in the corporate world to convince Adele to try her hand at using her art degree professionally and she hasn’t looked back since. Adele’s formal training and focus was in oil, she now primarily uses acrylic paint after discovering her technique of layering texture and color with a palette knife, and theis fast drying process suited her creative approach. Adele enjoys keeping her subject matter familiar, but with a unique point of view. Her goal is to produce work that feels at home, but in an unexpected way. Adele is attracted to abstracted landscapes, simple scenes and florals illustrated in unique ways. Adele currently resides in Charlotte, North Carolina with her husband and daughters.

J U D I T H J U DY In a review of Judith Judy’s work, Mark Jenkins, art critic for the Washington Post, wrote: “The Northern Virginia painter is not an abstractionist, yet her warm, radiant landscapes aren’t modeled on particular places. Indeed, they seem designed as portals, visual entrances into the world of light. Soft-textured trees and grass define the foreground and vaporous sky the background, but the action transpires between the two, on the plane where sunlight bleeds into a rich, indistinct glow.” Judith lives and works in Northern Virginia. She received a degree in fine art from Towson University in Baltimore, Maryland and further studied oil painting in various classes and workshops. In the spring of 2009, Judith was invited to exhibit her work in Vilnius, Lithuania as part of Europe’s Capital of Culture Celebration. She also participated in an exhibit at the Lithuanian National Museum of Art and two of her paintings have become part of the museum’s permanent collection. Judith was chosen to exhibit in the fall of 2013 at the Berlin art fair “Berliner Liste.”

J A N E S C H M I DT Living and working in the beautiful mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, Jane Schmidt is a renowned landscape painter. She received her Master of Fine Arts in Painting from Arizona State University and her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design from the College for Creative Studies, Detroit, Michigan. Jane’s constant quest for beauty and inspiration takes her from the coast of Maine to the countryside of California, and from the mountains of Colorado to the lowlands of the Carolinas. Jane’s landscape paintings are noted for their unique color palettes and energetic brushwork. “My subject is color,” explains Jane, “and there is no better source for color than nature.” Inspired by the vibrant colors of her surrounding environment, her abstract landscapes use color and texture to express more what is felt rather than what is seen by direct observation. Her landscape paintings balance between realism and abstraction evoking a strong connection to nature. Jane has earned national and international recognition for her landscape paintings. She has twice been invited to exhibit at the esteemed Florence Biennale and has been selected to show at museums and universities throughout the country. Her work is eagerly sought by arts enthusiasts and can be found in prestigious private and corporate collections. She completed artist residencies at the University of Minnesota and the Oxbow School of Art as well as received the Emerging Artist of the Year award from the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

DA P H N E C H A P I N Born in Boston, Daphne Chapin lives in New Canaan, Connecticut and coastal Maine. She received her BFA with a concentration in oil painting from Lake Forest College and studied abroad at the American University of Paris and Parsons. She paints in oil, both plein air and in her studio in Connecticut. Before Daphne shifted her focus to painting professionally in 2007, she worked in New York and Los Angeles as a clothing designer. Prior to designing, she spent several years at various positions in museums on the East Coast — at the Metropolitan Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston in exhibition sponsorship; at the National Gallery of Art in education; and at the National Portrait Gallery in curatorial. Now as a painter, Daphne strives to create work that quietly resonates with the viewer. She continually edits line and color including only clear elements that seem essential to the composition. She has painted vibrant abstracts and florals, but her primary focus is on minimalist landscapes.

PETER ROUX An artist living and working in North Carolina, Peter Roux is fascinated by the varied elements of our contemporary spatial experience. He works primarily with oils, dry media, and encaustic media to explore themes of motion, time, and movement throughout his landscape paintings. The dynamics of space and our relationship as we move through it drives the content of Peter’s landscapes. Experiencing space through distance, depth, and edge, it is always in motion as reflected on his canvas. Peter elaborates on his concept of space, explaining its connection to time, “Space is fluid and temporal… never static. Our perceptions of stillness are dishonest… nature moves, marches. In this sense, space and time are linked, if not ghosts of one another. Our experience of space is always an experience of time.” His landscapes, tied to the motion of space and time create jumping points for personal reflection and consideration. In 2013, Peter was awarded a month-long artist residency in Northern Iceland, resulting in an ongoing body of work born out of the unique space and light of the region. He was twice featured in New American Paintings, a juried competition in print published by Open Studios Press. His work is held in numerous private and corporate collections, including Fidelity, Marriott, W Hotels, Ritz-Carlton, Biogen, Meditech, and others. His work is widely exhibited throughout the United States. Roux was an adjunct faculty member at Lesley University College of Art and Design from 2003-2014. I n his Artist Statement, Peter describes his art and process, “In my work, subject plays an important role, but I search for content in the space between subject and viewer… the dense space. A single graphic tree, layered over so to take second stage to what exists forward of it... for me, this area is where the space/time blend is visually loudest, where the story is.”

S A N DY O S T R A U Sandy Ostrau grew up in Palo Alto, California, where she was an active student at the Palo Alto Art Center through high school. She continued studio art classes and studied Art History at UCSB. After a stint in marketing communications for a Silicon Valley company, she spent several years creating silkscreen and hand-painted clothing and other items for sale through Nordstrom and other Northern California retailers. Eventually, she decided to focus on oils. Sandy has taken numerous painting and drawing classes at the Pacific Art League and the Art Center in Palo Alto, and for the last 10 years has been a student of Jim Smyth and Brigitte Curt at the California Academy of Painters. “In each of my paintings my goal is to capture the essential elements of a particular time and place, but in a process of reduction so that where and when it was it painted becomes irrelevant. I begin by drawing the details and information that I see in nature plein-air. I then begin to pare down the image in order to organize the design of the painting and eliminate what is not essential. I call my paintings Modern Landscapes with a nod to the modernist painters of the mid century in the Bay Area. My figurative work similarly is an attempt to capture the gesture of the figure. These begin with drawings of live models, from which I hope to tell the story of what the model is doing rather than who the model is. The figures are not identifiable other than in their body language. I then try to apply the same techniques of composition and color I use for landscapes to achieve a similar concept of design.�
