John Crawford Art
American, b. 1947
John R. Crawford (American, b. 1947) is an artist currently living and painting in the Santa Cruz area of northern California. John R. Crawford is an artist currently living and painting in the Santa Cruz area of northern California. Living on the coast offers the inspiration of the constantly changing and always dramatic Pacific Ocean and Monterey Bay. "My goal is to reach the point where my skills and my emotions are aligned allowing the forms to evolve spontaneously, surfacing on the canvas without premeditation; brush stroke and color responding and influencing one another in the moment. Each day I challenge myself. I practice and train my brush to be ready to demonstrate my vision. I have added plein air painting into my process, along with studio work. This brings added images and immediacy to my art." John Crawford has participated in shows throughout California and has won numerous awards, including Best in Show at the Crocker-Kingsley Art Competition in Roseville California in February 2015.

Maryann Lucas lives and works in Sag Harbor. She is primarily self-taught but has also received instruction and support from wonderful and generous members of the East End artistic community. Working exclusively in oils, Lucas sets out almost daily to create plein aire landscapes and seascapes. In her studio, she works directly from life and captures the beauty of natural light as it transforms ordinary objects into visual delights.
Lucas wants her work to celebrate all that is well with this world and brilliant in this life, despite its pockets of darkness.
For me, she says, I know I am in the Presence of something beautiful, when it steals my breath, silences my mind, pushes out everything else and draws me in. I trust That. I use That to guide my hands as I arrange a still life or scan a landscape to determine where to set down my easel. Ultimately, That is what drives me to paint.
Becoming evermore skilled as an oil painter is another of Lucas goals. To that end she remains teachable, finding it refreshing and vital for her own growth to paint with others. She has studied with favorite artists including Michael Klein...
