Dalvin Byron's paintings originate where waking life bleeds into dreams —where the noise of the world refuses to fade. The work is concerned with sensation and instinct rather than direct narrative or explanation. Each canvas explores interior states shaped by personal identity, memory, and a search for meaning in an unpredictable world. Rather than using dreams as an escape from modern life, the paintings treat them as an honest reflection of it: intense, shifting, and loaded with personal history.
Dalvin currently lives and works in Newton, Massachusetts, where he teaches drawing and painting classes for middle and high school students. His commitment to art education extends beyond the studio: he previously taught in Baltimore, Maryland, where he led a team of high school students through a summer mural and public art program, bringing creative work into shared community spaces. He received his BFA from Messiah University in 2016. He is represented by Fountain Street Gallery.

View from the Train: Cityscape Oil Painting, View of Brooklyn
By Patty Neal
Located in Hudson, NY
View from the Train, 2019 24" X 40" x 1", oil on canvas This contemporary oil painting depicting a metropolitan view is the work of realist painter Patty Neal. The painting offers an intimate view of the city, as seen from a window, as it peeks from behind two metal structures. The dark browns and bright golds beautifully compliment the dusty blue, gray sky. Neal works highlight everyday city scenes, utilitarian infrastructure, and industrial or electrical apparatus. Artist statement: A life is an accumulation of experiences: visual, emotional and mental. By compartmentalizing these snippets of life we create boundaries. The focus of my work for many years has been the exploration of these various life aspects and how they are bound together or bound from each other. My process is often literally composed of boundaries. I make a painting by putting together multiple panels, or I segment a single panel into separate visual spaces. The works are made up of pieces or elements of city and landscape. While exploring the concepts of boundaries I play with visual “reality.” Sometimes I combine images that are upside down with those that are not and juxtapose images from different contexts. Literal boundaries, such as walls fences, expanses of water and highway median strips are also used. My intent is to invite viewers to look beyond these boundaries to see the possibilities of a connected whole.
