  • Lauren Curtis
    Lauren Curtis
    Visual Artist
    Lauren Curtis graduated with her BFA from Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University, in 1988.   She’s been creating ever since and now, as a full time artist,  enjoys working in a variety of media, including  oils, collage, pen & ink, watercolor and photography.  Curtis is happiest when creating pieces that represent her love of nature,  wildlife, travel and spiritual subject matter. The  symbolism and mythology of ancient cultures are fused with the symbols from modern day , natural spiritual practices, to form a unique and eclectic style.  These images are often portrayed through the woman’s perspective,  showing the importance of “The Feminine”, which is sometimes over-looked.  Travel is another major influence in Lauren’s work, usually photographs, created from these journeys helps the artist to convey the beauty found in diversity, as well as in the similarities, that run through various cultural belief-systems. Lauren has had artwork and poetry published by  greeting card and crafter companies, magazines, children’s books  and historical organizations, including the Middlesex County Cultural & Heritage Commission.  One of her pieces was selected for the  permanent collection of the Joyce Kilmer Library in central NJ. Curtis’ work has been displayed in private collections, healthcare centers and galleries and was selected for a solo exhibit at Johnson &Johnson World Headquarters, July-August, 2009. She was a featured artist on the Science Channel‘s TV show Oddities (2011-2012), was also featured on Germany’s TAFF TV (2015), several NJ/NYC cable /YouTube TV shows and has done radio interviews as well.   Lauren has participated in over 100 solo,  group & juried exhibitions, won multiple awards and is a member of  NJ Arts organizations.  Her artwork has been sold throughout the US and abroad and she exhibits her work monthly in gallery shows, art festivals and cultural events.  To keep updated on Lauren’s art schedule, please visit http://laurencurtisart.weebly.com  where you can also sign her email list.
  • Cristina Hoyos
    Cristina Hoyos
    Educator; Visual Artist
    Cristina Hoyos, an artist from Colombia, is a postmodern Surrealist who explores the theme of the “Witness” through the ubiquitous image of a mysterious eye in the sky that appears in many of her paintings, collages and drawings.  Hoyos’ compositions are visionary journeys depicting fragmented figures in metaphysical spaces in luminous colors that enhance their dreamlike imagery.  The addition of organic material such as leaves, in some of her smaller mixed media works adds to the poetry that makes Cristina Hoyos an appealing and compelling painter of “dreamscapes”.
  • Teju Reval
    Teju Reval
    Designer; Visual Artist
    Teju is a charcoal artist, Illustrator and Surface pattern designer.  Her style is elegant and trendy, and mostly romanticizes contrasts- Black & white with color, simple with complex, mundane with extraordinary. She grew up in India and has lived in the UK, Hong Kong and US. Though she trained as a Computer Engineer and earned her Masters in Business Administration, her heart was always set on creative pursuit. She quit her job and became a full-time artist in 2013. Teju loves working with Charcoal. She is amazed at how that medium can be both loose and rigid at the same time, the possibilities are endless. She also enjoys working with different media like pen and ink, watercolor and gouache. She takes inspiration from her travels. She lives, dreams and breathes art everyday.
  • JoAnn Telemdschinow
    JoAnn Telemdschinow
    Visual Artist
    I am a largely self-taught digital collage artist. Although I was always interested in art, I searched for a way to express myself until I discovered collage, and ultimately, digital collage. My collages are influenced by my love of the art and architecture of the past, but also by my interest in travel, history, and mythology. I select vintage texts, images, and textures, recombining them in new ways. I strive to make my finished pieces both visually appealing as well as atmospheric, evoking a specific mood.
