Pam Ackley
Laduree Dream

About the Item

In September 2006, Pam began her artistic journey at Silvermine School of Art where she studied still life for eight years with Kirill Doron of the Art Institute of Moscow. Pam's primary focus was portraiture and her interests were geared towards classical portrait paintings since those paintings use the light so effectively Towards that goal, Pam was classically trained in the academic tradition for seven years. Her training was furnished by several instructors from the Florence Academy of Art. Her paintings are the poetry of her interpretations of reality. "After my years of formal academic training, I sometimes take my work toward the more contemporary, non-classical style. This is accomplished by combining structure of form along with an organic, reactive approach to color and value. While my still life’s and portraits adhere to the traditional, I often incorporate contemporary design. Some paintings are a departure from reality in that I allow my reactions to take the painting to places I cannot preconceive as I focus only on the essentials.”

Southland Booths
By Matt Condron
Located in Fairfield, CT
Having spent many years as a photographer, Matt Condron is trained to recognize the importance of a moment or the preciousness of a fleeting opportunity. He is captivated by the idea of emptiness, as both a suggestion of solitude and as a state rife with the possibility of change and fulfillment. As a painter, he seeks out familiar, evocative scenes and concentrates on capturing the stillness of an empty room or vacant chair. His paintings can be seen as solitary, or as simply aberrant pauses between moments of frantic activity. The works are imbued with a quality of light that brings simple, content-rich objects into sharp focus. Condron attempts to establish not so much a connection to a chair or a room, but the feeling created by the wide embrace of emptiness. Ultimately, Condron creates scenes - part representation of real places, part invention from deep in his mind. The openness of his works invites the viewer to share the moment of quiet with him. By choosing places that seem to have been abruptly vacated, he attempts to awaken a connection to the moment before, or to the quietude he preserves inside himself in the form of memories. Matt Condron was born in 1967 in Simi Valley...
