ELLIE DENEROFF
ELLIE DENEROFF is an artist originally from New York City.
ELLIE's work is most inspired by retro concert posters, daydreams, patterns, and people I see walking on the street. She likes to pair the softness of watercolors and with crispness of ink. Her most recent works represent an intersection between the calming nature of mandalas and the energy of funk.

JEREMY FLICK
JEREMY FLICK is known for his complex works of geometric abstraction, which are full of repetitive forms and meticulous details. His recent conceptual works,
CONTRAPUNTAL DERIVATIONS, transform and manipulate anonymous images from the internet. This series focuses on the overlapping relationship of the physical object and the allusive digital source.
JEREMY's work can be seen at the
SWATCHROOMSALON ON FRIDAY NIGHT.
DONNA K. MCGEE
DONNA K. MCGEE uses a meditative yet exciting quality in her paintings, as she deliberates the direction of the piece as she goes. Her paintings allow the viewers’ eyes to wander over the whole canvas.
DONNA uses many different colors and textures to see how they will react with each other; this invokes a feeling of historical awareness, as the surface begins to look like it is rusting or peeling.
DONNA's paintings will be featured in
SWATCHROOM's
SALON ON FRIDAY NIGHT.
BRIAN PETRO
BRIAN PETRO credits his style of painting to the contrast between his rural Pennsylvania upbringing and the brutal reality of city life.
BRIAN's work represents the path of his wandering mind. His self-education in art is something that allows him to constantly be experimenting with ideas and mediums.
BRIAN was recently commissioned by Absolut to design a large scale advertising campaign.
BRIAN's work will be shown at
SWATCHROOM's
SALON ON FRIDAY NIGHT.
