Revival
1. Biagio Occhino an Engineer and budding
Contemporary Artist from Belmont , MA now living in Burlington, MA. He is
displaying his Art Project called “Art in Every Day Objects”.
Which is Art from an Engineer’s viewpoint. Engineers tend to look at the
world differently. They see how things work internally and the secrets behind
everyday objects. Biagio decided it was time to show this hidden world to others
around him and let them reflect on the complexity and Artistic side of what
Engineers work on.

2. David Barnes Photography -His photography takes a tradition
- photographing the fine art nude figure, and branches out to explore new ground.
Using a variety of studio lighting techniques, his work has revolved around
combining multiple figures to create one form. Over the last 10 years he has
incorporated increasing levels of abstraction to a point where his current images
only hint at the curves of the human body, with overlapping silhouettes against
brightly colored backgrounds.
His work is frequently mistaken for multi-layer Photoshop creations, but this
is not the case. All of these images are achieved spontaneously inside the camera
using double exposures rather than on the computer.

3. Jay Pendexter Painter from Jamaica Plain. He is a professional
artist specializing in representational nature scenes (landscapes, seascapes,
and wildlife) executed in watercolor with pencil, oil pastels, or soft pastels.
His watercolors are known as “hard edged” and are usually done on
cold pressed paper.( nature scenes executed in watercolors Paints and pastels
)

4. Jeff York Painter from Salem . His art is in acrylic as
the media for his commercial endeavors. Acrylic paint dries fairly quickly,
allows him to repaint as he works, and he finds the colors to be extraordinarily
vibrant;The bulk of his paintings are cityscapes of some well-known areas in
New England. I have come to use a style that he likes to simply call "bent"
in which he distorts the contents of the painting. This is sort of like looking
through a glass brick. It is a base of realism mixed with object distortion
and sharp, eye-catching bright colors.

7. James “JB” Finnerty a colorful
Outside the Lines Artist who tends to look on the bright side, although my life’s
been miserable in the past.” Historically, Finnerty has created
whimsical drawings - fun little drawn characters or watercolors that exude a
happy spirit. Finnerty says that as a child he was inspired to draw, in part,
by the Muppets, and his artwork often references his love of Jim Henson and
comics such as “Get Fuzzy.” Since he started working at Outside
the Lines, his artwork has developed into a more abstract and symbolic style.
Finnerty is exploring a graffiti-like style that is uniquely his own.
His large paintings appear to contain a vast amount of information which has
been distorted or encrypted.
Finnerty associates and connects things to each other in ways that are often
unexpected and unusual, and these surprising connections often require some
thinking about to understand. Once you do, his connections make perfect sense.
Finnerty has a novel way of viewing the world, which is an asset for him as
a visual artist.
He exhibits his work at Bizarre Bazaar, Somerville Open Studios, West Medford
Open Studios, and at It’s a Gift, an Outsider Art Gallery in Somerville.
MA.

8. Tony Lake: An Outside the Lines Artist who is the creator
of ovoid abstractions, often referencing self-portraits that incorporate facial
features. His ovals are rich with layers of color that he observes in
his surroundings, and the colors often reach out and interact with the surrounding
space.
Lake’s work has qualities that many abstract expressionist painters aspire
to. His choice of color is deliberate, his language of mark making is
varied and sensitive, and his pieces hold a balance, like a delicate, liquid
ecosystem.
Lake exhibits his work at Bizarre Bazaar, Somerville Open Studios, West Medford
Open Studios, Out of the Blue Gallery in Cambridge, and at It’s a Gift,
an Outsider Art Gallery in Somerville. MA.

9. Denise Tupper An Outside the Lines Artist whose drawings
and paintings are difficult to categorize. They are often crude and colorfully
reproduced interpretations of objects and characters with a presupposed significance
or meaning – from hearts and flowers to pop cultural icons from children’s
books, usually Disney characters. Humor is a huge part of her personality
and it comes across in most of her work. Denise makes use of an aesthetic that
develops the image of its subject without the desire for realistic representation,
instead using mangled, gestural lines that give a playful and sometimes subversive
flavor to her work.

Participating Non Outside the Lines Artist are donating 20% of their
proceeds from any Art sales to Outside the Lines Studios a Non Profit since
they are letting us use their space.
We are hoping to start a good joint venture with Outside the Lines Studios so
we could do this every 3 months or so.
We plan on putting out like a donation jar / box too to collect money
for Outside the Lines Studios as well.
More info on Outside the Lines Studios:
• 10,000 Sq Feet Art warehouse at 70 Colby Street Medford MA, with 2 parking
lots for 80 cars.
• There is a small outside area that we can use too.
• Their website is http://www.outsidethelinesstudio.org/
• It is on the edge of the Tuffs Campus in Medford. A 12 -14 minutes walk
from Davis SQ, but still close to RT 93.
• A charity that help adults with learning disabilities to experience and
create Art.
• Expect to see 10 to 15 special needs adult to show up to.
• If it’s a nice day we can open up the large garage door and let
fresh air and light in.
• Next door is an open ball field so we can plan outdoor games here too,
like kick ball and volleyball.
I am looking for a few Social fun or other Members or fellow Organizers to
help fun games both inside and out like Kick ball and volley ball. I have all
the sport equipment. I just need people in charge for the outdoor games and
for the indoor games. Think of what a fun filled packed day this will be.
I wanted to remind all Members to bring coolers full of drinks, ice and snack
so all can enjoy too.
Thanks and Ciao
Biagio
