These works reflect different scenes around New York, from Central Park to the subway. Photorealism is the biggest influence on my style, along with Pop art.

My work is influenced by my urban habitat, my love of nature, and the dynamics of change. Whether I am observing the magnificent trees and verdant landscapes of Central Park and Riverside Park or studying the play of light and shadows on the buildings of this city, I find colors, patterns, and textures that inspire my creativity. The fragile nature of watercolor is challenging to work with yet unsurpassed in delivering the luminosity and rich colors I observe in nature.

I was born and raised in Queens have lived on the Upper West Side since 1979. Whenever I set out to take photos in my hometown, I always seek to convey an inclusive community that welcomes any and all. Dancing in particular does that,  joyfully. These images were part of a larger body of work on New York's salsa dancing community.

On a summery afternoon eight years ago, I arrived in New York to study filmmaking, sharing an apartment with three other Chinese girls who also came here for school. My New York is  Manhattan Valley. I have crossed the same streets hundreds of times, observed the stores open and close, watched the kids grow taller than me. If someday I have to leave, the memory of these streets will be forever stored in my paintings. The most mundane have the power to stir the deepest emotions.

Born in Seoul, based in New York,  I am interested in exploring time and memory with a printmaking series about my childhood and self-rediscovery. My pieces begin with digital printmaking, then incorporate drawing and collage through  photography, linocut, stencil, raster graphics editing, pencil, ink, marker, watercolor, paper, and threads. The children in my prints are colorfully dressed, but their faces have no color; they could be anyone, everyone, reminding viewers of their own childhood.  Children become a mirror,  the prints a bridge of empathy. A poem accompanying "Out, Not In" reads: You can move forward / But you cannot go back. / New York subway turnstile spin is like time.

Steve McLure is a musician and street photographer. His musical adventures have taken him from the Sands Hotel House Band (Las Vegas) to the Greensboro Symphony to the Radio City Music Hall Orchestra, with many stops in between (including work with Joan Sutherland, Tony Orland, and the not-the-royal-Lipizzaner Austrian Stallions). He worked “downtown” for many years as an art director and designer. Steve plays tenor sax in the Big Apple Corps Lesbian and Gay Marching Band. He owns a camera, but now shoots exclusively with his iPhone.

The urban landscape is my primary subject.  I try to convey the anonymity, as well as the wonder and awe, one senses in a city this vast, this crowded. I have seen how socioeconomic changes have transformed neighborhoods over the decades; as a result, memory informs my work.  My paintings often feature landmarks,  symbols of permanence in an ever-changing city.  In "79th & Broadway," the nineteenth-century First Baptist Church is an anchor and a counterpoint to a busy commercial intersection.

"In 'Limelight," a Chelsea landmark epitomizes the city's social and cultural transformations.  It was built as an  Episcopalian church in the mid-nineteenth century in an affluent neighborhood.  A century later, the area had fallen on hard times, and there was no longer a local congregation for the church.  By the 1980s the building had become a notorious nightclub.  Since then, it has housed a mall and a gym.

A Brazilian artist, I have been based in New York since 2003. My art represents my interpretation of everyday city life: the architecture, the aesthetics of bicycles in an urban context, the human element, with people of every ethnicity crowding the most coveted city in the world.
