SANDY CURRIE

As an artist I am committed to pushing boundaries and

challenging conventional notions of art. My art is not only visually
natural but also holds a deep emotional significance. I ultimately,
want my art to share my human and animal experiences.. I find
joy in repurposing found objects to create thought provoking

artwork .but most importantly to send message from my heart
to engage yours and promote kindness and compassion. I have
found a voice through art that expresses my true feelings..

RACHEL DE ALMEIDA

I was born in NYC, NY and grew up in Southern Connecticut in a

household that fostered creative expression. I was very influenced
by the city, fashion, and fine art. The child of an artist/teacher and
an architect, I developed a strong appreciation for function and
design. I am basically a magpie on steroids with ADHD which

is why I like to work combining different types of media. Being
influenced by Gustav Klimt, MC Escher as well as the POP Art of
the 60s I have a love of pattern and bold color often incorporating
some sort of bling. After studying theater at Temple University and

art at The Boston Museum School of Fine Arts, I graduated with
a BFA from Pratt Institute of Technology and went on to work in
fashion, film, and architectural design. I am a Reiki Master Teacher
and Oracle Reader who has studied Shamanism for 15 years, so

it is no mystery that I find my direction from Spirit. I have been in
several group shows in the past four years.
