Very Small
Rath Berger
|
Rath Berger was born in Hungary in 1933, to parents who were both well-known artists. He studied under his parents until he was old enough to enter a specialized art school. Rath generally paints miniature fruit with porcelain or glass, with his trademark water drops on the table. His portrayal of these various fruits, whether they be cherries or plums, are so realistic one is tempted to pluck the fruit off the painting! As a pass time, Rath operates a lovely bed and breakfast with his wife. His work has been exhibited in Paris, Munich and New York and can be found in collections all over the world.

Ever since I can remember, I’ve dreamed of being an artist. And...like other young artists, Disney gave me my first exposure to the possibilities. Then in the 60’s, psychedelic posters and hot rod art were probably my first exercises in seriously working from my imagination. Even in the military, I ended up as a staff artist and photographer, my first practical experience as a commercial artist, graphic designer and photographer. For the most part, my commercial work was detailed pen and ink drawings. Because of this, my fine art tended to be loose and less structured. In the early 80’s, I started working with oil pastels. It was during this time my work became more impressionistic. In 2002, I began doing etchings where my line drawing experience came in handy for the initial projects. Before long, I found myself exploring looser, less ridged techniques. I still prefer to work from my imagination. After so many years of creating imagery that had specific requirements, I really enjoy the freedom to create my own reality. Watching an image develop in front of you is really fascinating. My landscapes may be influenced by the desire to escape, to be somewhere quiet and unhurried. My favorite pieces are always the ones that have nothing much going on in them, just open space and an inviting path to nowhere in particular.

Scott Jones |
Scott Jones was born in Cleveland in 1958. He studied at the prestigious Columbus College of Art and Design and presently works in his beloved painting studios in Key West, Northern Kentucky and on the shores of Lake Michigan. An intriguing aura surrounds Jones’ paintings. His work contains something engaging – a mood, movement and often exotic use of light that embraces his viewers and invites them into the work as if they were attending one of the many theatrical performances or café scenes Jones so loves to create. He calls them “scene stealers.” In his travels to the great romantic cities, he captures the mood-drenched scenes on canvas. One can’t help being taken in by the festive attitude and timeless moods created by Scott. In addition to Jones’ participation in dozens of one man exhibitions, he has participated in countless group shows, designed theatrical sets and acquired numerous public and private commissions. His work is exhibited and collected throughout the United States and France.
The artist is available for commissions, allowing the buyer to specify size, subject matter and color.
