    Born and raised in western Pennsylvania, John Sharkey traveled a great deal with his family. He believes that this travel was "Instrumental in developing [his] desire to record and interpret what [he] saw and experienced" and he "Came to realize that we can all look at the same scene but see entirely different things..." Mr. Sharkey works with traditional film and prints on fiber based papers "For a superior and permanent image."

  • Fygar by Keith Lima

    Keith Lima is a native of State College who currently resides in New York City. His work is an expression of liberated and negated line that resists the artist's temptation to be rendered into recognizable form. Heavily influenced by the second World War's expressionists, Mr. Lima also draws inspiration from the pictorial forms of Mayan glyphs. "I have never been satisfied with work resulting from prearranged ideas. The works I believe in most are those which seem to have come about without my intervention. The painting tries to become and I try to recede."
