Richard Poumelin's Vision of Venice

In addition to his acrylic and watercolor paintings, Richard Poumelin's art is expressed in his music as an accomplished guitarist. His landscapes, still lifes, and his musical themed paintings are filled with a spiritual exercise…filled with powerful harmonies and magic reality and sensitive serenity. Poumelin possesses a meticulous awareness of his craft and his art. He remains faithful to the motif, to the object, to the unmistakable poetic elements. A silver medallist in 1996 at the Grand Salon Internationnal de Peinture, and the grand prize gold medallist in 1997 at the Internationnal d’Arts Plastiques Poumelin’s work are in a number of significant private and corporate collections. His art is widely exhibited in France, Italy, Canada, Corsica, and most recently in the United Sates.

Zider's Nautical View Turns to Central Park

Central Park in New York City. The latest from Doug Zider. Zider creates vibrant marine scenes, sweeping nautical vistas, powerful clipper ships majestically gliding over churning waterways, and small personal craft during the sunset. “As an islander and boater my whole life, the water has always been the source of play, work, and peace of mind. A delicate environment always changing, always giving up something new to see, a true natural resource. It is with great pleasure I study and paint what has been given to us. Zider attended The School of Visual Arts, NYC, studying realism painting, and for 30 years has worked at NBC.
