METHODS & MATERIALS: HOW TO MASTER THE MASTERS by Terry Sullivan.

CEZANNE'S CONQUEST OF SPACE by Joseph C. Skrapits. After attending the Paris debut last fall of the Paul Cezanne retrospective and then touring his painting sites at Auvers and in the South of France, I became intrigued by the role of spatial illusion in this master's landscapes.

BEYOND REALISM by Carmi Weingrod. Using a multiple-layering technique, GARY FAIGIN creates paintings in which pears are placed in unlikely settings, serving as stand-ins for a human presence.

THE PASTEL PAGE: CROSSING OVER TO PASTEL by Sarah Chamberlain.

HANDLING INTIMATE STILL LIFES by Richard Currier. In my effort to achieve accurate and dramatic paintings, I work up close with my still-life objects, sometimes even holding them as I paint to examine their textures.

LUCIA AUTORINO SALEMME: THE GEOMETRY OF COLOR by Pat Van Gelder. express the visual excitement This New York artist uses geometric forms and vibrant colors of subjects ranging from flowers to the Manhattan skyline.

THE WATERCOLOR PAGE INTRIGUED BY ARCHITECTURE by Bob Moody. Since I run an architectural firm, it probably makes sense that I am inclined to depict buildings in my watercolors. But I also believe that they provide interesting layers of color and shadow that in other subjects are much more subtle and difficult to capture.

WORKING HARD AND LOVING IT by M Stephen Doherty. Although he works hard selling his original watercolors and screen prints at outdoor fairs and festivals, William R. Cantwell likes to say he plays for a living.
