Daniel Gregory, a native to Sarasota, Florida, is a self-taught artist who paints in self-made watercolors, oils, acrylics, and does pen and ink renderings. His subject matter is whatever he finds interesting; whatever he feels is worth preserving. Contrast, with both tone and color, is the key to his artwork, and it is the vividness of his color that is most often remarked upon by viewers of his work. Daniel Gregory is a signature member of the Florida Watercolor Society, has been featured in Watercolor Magazine, and has paintings in numerous private and corporate collections.
 
Trulee Jameson developed a passion for painting landscapes and natural, organic images in early childhood thanks to her mother who was an avid art enthusiast, environmentalist and gardener.  While she went on to study fine art at Columbus College of Art and Design and Ohio State University, Jameson has created large works in a range of styles using oils and mixed media on canvas and board since the age of 11. Recently relocated to Sarasota from Washington DC, Jameson’s current paintings of tropical foliage can be characterized as contemporary realism and "tonal", however her linear brushwork and strong composition remind many of the fantastical works of Henri Rousseau.
 
Pamela Jablonski, I achieve a certain ambiance with each piece so it takes on a characteristic of it’s own. Art becomes a unique object when technique and process are undetectable. My art comes alive when this happens. The content of my work is equally, and often more important than the process. The images I create represent the truth of what is real for me. The visual imagery I choose symbolizes meaningful Ideas. I want to achieve the highest quality piece of art both visually and emotionally. I started this body of work in 1986 in Maryland, after being influenced by my studies in England at the Winchester School of ART. This marked an important turning point in my career as a fine artist and is the core of the artwork I create today.

Kurt Larisch, (b. 1913) was first exposed to art in his grandfather’s sculpture studio and in the photography and painting atelier of his father. In 1938 he moved to England and then to India where he had five one-man shows. Larisch and his family lived in the United States from 1947 until 1970 when he went to Mexico looking for motivation and freedom. Using vivid colors his work expresses a critical view of conformity and dehumanization by juxtaposing large geometric elements against masses of tiny human figures. The gallery will also display rare Larisch sculptures produced 30 years ago in stainless steel on black marble. Larisch, who has had more than 40 international shows, lives and works in Sarasota, Florida.
