NAOMI DIRACLES: From the time of the Old Masters to the present time, "COLLAGE" has been respected and dynamic ART FORM. The technique of pasting paper or other foreign elements onto the picture surface is NOT new. I have been creating COLLAGE/MIXED MEDIA ART WORK for sevreal years. My work reflects both traditional and contemporary themes. It is the selection of materials or images to be used — that becomes the most thoughtt-provoking and challenging process for me. Once the selection is made, the collage material is combined with other art techniques to create a visually balanced composition. My focus is always the same— COLOR, FORM and COMPOSITION. Also important to me — are the principles of design- which enable me to achieve visual harmony and unity in my work. ART has always been an important part of my life and now more than ever creating is my passion. My earlier years involved painting, printing and experimenting with all techniques. Finally it was NO surprise that I became a 'MIXED-MEDIUM" artist. Although COLLAGE is not a new art techique- for me it opened the door to new interpretations and experimentation using and changing images (both mine and others) to create my artwork. It requires a great deal of time, talent, and concentration to execute a successful piece— and I am hooked!

KATHY EPSTEIN: I am a South Florida and Long Island, New York artist. I studied art under Jules Olitsky at C. W. Post College, (LIU) and have attended the Fort Lauderdale Art Institute, The Art School in Boca Raton, The Academy of Art in Fort Lauderdale, and have worked in a studio environment in upstate New York.
I like experimenting with many types of media. Among some of these are collages with a social message. In my work, I use found objects, recycled materials, tissue paper, newspaper, and photos I have taken. I believe in trying to help the environment where I can. Creating “outside of the box” appeals to me and my work slants toward the abstract, expressionism, and/or impressionism. I am looking for a style and I think the search may be the style. In any event, my art is still evolving and I am enjoying the process. For questions about my work: kathyepstein40@gmail.com. |

JACLYN FELDMAN : I am a conceptual artist, inspired by the physical and emotional world around me. I use my visual and perceptual experiences to create something original that stimulates interactions of the sensations of self, desire, fear, love, hate, etc. I want the viewer to be drawn in to the emotion of my art, regardless of whether these works are representational, surreal, or abstract. My earlier pieces were done to capture what I saw, and/or to make a statement. My more recent works are more complex and bizarre. They are apt to prod the viewer to think about what they are seeing and perhaps ask themselves,
My work has been displayed in the Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery in Dix Hills, The Petite Gallery in Huntington, Lazy Days in Long Beach, Circulo de la Hispanidad in Long Beach, the Hewlett Library, Lynbrook Library, Long Beach Library, West End Library in Long Beach, the Wisser Library at NYIT, Unitarian Church in Manhasset, and Garden City, Freeport Recreation Center Gallery, Greis Park, Temple Emanuel in Long Beach and other venues.

KEN STRIER In his youth, Ken loved to create things out of any material he could get his hands on – wood, paper, clay, rubber bands. He worked with charcoal, paint and clay. He built sets for school plays, fish tanks full of artificial fish, and giant apple pies and pyramids for his fraternity. After receiving a BA in Physics, he chose to pursue a career in computer technology working in programming, networking, telecommunications and information security.
Throughout his working years, he continued to explore his creative side with projects at home and set design for the theater productions his wife, Ellen, directed, but as soon as Ken retired he allowed his creative side full range and became a sculptor. For the last eighteen years Ken has studied at the Nassau Museum of Art, the Art League of Long Island and with a variety of mentors in private studios. He started sculpting in stone, primarily in alabaster, and then began taking “Anatomy for the Sculptor” where he worked in clay. About eleven years ago he began working with and welding steel. He found that each medium had its own unique appeal. “For me, the joy of sculpting comes from the process of taking something hard and inanimate and creating movement and breathing life into it.”
In the last several years, Ken has been spending the Winters in Sun City West, Arizona where he has returned to the theater, acting and doing set designs for California Suite, Oklahoma, Fiddler on the Roof, Grease and Bye, Bye Birdie. He also creates clay and steel sculpture in the well equipped studios in his community.
Ken is a member of TriCounty Artists of Long Island, Long Island Professional Sculptors and Supporters, SCW Metal Club, Suburban Art League and the Huntington Arts Council. His work has been on display in many Libraries, Galleries and Art shows across Long Island and in Arizona.

FELICE ZASLOW: After retiring from my teaching career in 2010, I returned to "my path not taken," painting. Having created art at different periods in my life, I am delighted to now to make it my primary focus.
As a youngster I spent time studying at the Brooklyn Museum Art School. This led to a life-long interest in painting and drawing, and then, to an avocation. I enjoy painting the natural world as well as the man-made one using original photos as my inspiration. My paintings are often influenced by the feeling of oneness I have with nature in certain settings, particularly in the Sonoran Desert in Arizona. Some of my paintings are reflections of life's challenges and the strengths I have used to meet those challenges.
In recent years I have studied at the ART STUDENTS LEAGUE in New York City, as well as with local artists, including the late Ivan Kamalic. Currently I am a member of the TriCounty Artists of Long Island, The National Art League in Queens, New York and the Art League of Nassau County. At the National Art League I am studying with Pedro Pacheco, from whom I have learned new techniques which I incorporate in my work. Pedro has inspired me to expand my art with new vision, moving from the traditional to experimenting with iconography, color and composition of my paintings.
I have moved into exhibiting my work, participating in many of the NAL shows as well as TriCounty Artists of Long Island. I look forward to continuing to develop my art and am inspired by the TriCounty members.
