Thomas Schaller: Originally trained as an architect, he is fascinated by urban scenes which he renders using a wide variety of techniques.
Yuko Nagayama: She likes the stunning beauty of flowers and their vibrant energy. Her approach is both philosophical and spiritual.
Chris Krupinski: She laborates highly detailed and colourful still lifes, striking in their bold and complex composition.
Barbara Nechis: From a close observation of nature and its shapes, she arrives at watercolours that border on abstraction.
Denny Bond: He works on composition and detail in a figurative style with a choice of subject matter that is not predictable.
