Randall Graham
Randall Graham’s passion for art has been apparent since childhood. His love of drawing and creating stories through works of art started at a very young age and hasn’t stopped yet. He studied at The Carlin Academy of Fine Art. Bo Bartlett has also taught Randall and influenced his style. The tradition of Chester County artists continues with Randall. He was born in Malvern Pa and today he resides in West Chester PA with his family.
Randall is ambitious when it comes to his approach to painting. His work comes in a variety of channels including studio work, en plein air (outdoor painting) and his "en rain air" style. The "en rain air" style comes about from painting a scene from his mini van or window while it is raining. The rain drops on the window act as a means for abstraction. The juxtaposition of abstract and reality creates emotional paintings which have become very popular with Randall's collectors.
Randall also loves to share his knowledge of painting through teaching. Helping others create is a truly gratifying experience. Randall teaches traditional painting fundamentals at Graham Painting Studio in West Chester PA. He also teaches workshops at Andrew and NC Wyeth’s Studios in partnership with the Brandywine River Museum.
Rachel Altschuler
Jan Wier has been working for over 25 years with interior design clients to bring beauty and grace to their homes which includes placing art, Jan has learned to meld what the client desires in their home; visual impact while reflecting their personal tastes.
Always hungry for color, beauty and harmony in her painting, Jan seeks to reflect the grace notes of welcome that people desire in their homes and lives - that well placed cherished vase, fresh flowers, or perhaps even a happy cupcake!
Jan's paintings are done in oil on canvas or board with a luscious use of creamy oil paint. Jan's painting style is loose and impressionistic with nothing too perfect; life is more interesting that way.
Jan's goal is to have her artwork bring a heartbeat of joy, color, and light to life.
