JoAnn Peralta | Romantic painter

Fine Artist JoAnn Peralta's fine art paintings have captivated collectors with her keen sense of mood and lush brushwork since 2004.

Each painting invokes a timeless romantic flair towards life and sets a tone of intrigue through her use of lighting and color.

The beauty of light with a contemporary, modernist touch is what Peralta describes as her inspiration.

Her passion for the West, historical and romanticized, are what dominate her vision and scope as it pertains to her hispanic and Italian ancestry and it continues to draw Masters of the American West, Autry Museum patrons and collectors.

Rocco Normanno, 1974 | Caravaggio's inspired painter

Rocco Normanno was born in Taurisano, a small town in the province of Lecce.

There, he completed his secondary education at the Professional Institute for Commerce, and, in 2003, he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence.

Normanno currently lives and works in Tuscany.

Rocco Normanno stands out as an artist who freely expresses himself with an autonomous language, but who refers to Caravaggio’s poetics by painting ordinary people, making them become great interpreters of biblical or mythological themes revisited in own way.

Elli Michler | I wish you Time

I don't wish you all sorts of gifts.

I just wish you, what most people don't have.

I wish you the time to be happy and to laugh

and if you use it, you can make something out of it.

I wish you the time for your doings and thinking,

not only for yourself, but also to give away.
