Fabre Sallent- well known Spanish Artist, Fabre’s art is simple at first view, the more you look at his paintings you can see the richness of its colors, and the depth of expressions, he brings out in his paintings, a complexity of style and multi-faceted, artist, that he is.

Alberto Carrillo – Passion, brilliance of colors, and strength come through his paintings, born in Cuba. He’s style is also full of depth and expression, although the style is very different to the other two artists exhibiting with him this month.

Eric Torriente – A young and very talented up coming artist, Eric is an Artist and a Design Artist, in his very expressive paintings, he captures, different life styles in Miami, from the “Dominoes players” in 8th Street, to the “wheeling and dealing” on “36th Street”, to the hustle and bustle on Brickell Ave.

Dramatic, eerie and intimidating all describe the larger than life works of Johniene Papandreas. Her softly blended casein on muslin canvases posses a unique, inner transparent light. Reaching back into art history, Papandreas has the uncanny ability to capture stop action emotion within each of the personalities portrayed. The work of the great masters is revived with a modern twist. The works are nothing less than elegant in style, composition and execution. Papandreas’ work can be found in numerous national and international private and corporate collections
