Liliana D’ambrosio was born in 1951 in Irpinia, Italy. During early her adolescence, she developed a passion for painting which would extend throughout her life. Inspired by her passion for art, she went on to study at the Art School of Avellino.
For a long period extending from the late 1980’s to the early years of the 2000’s, she drew on paper with rapidity and acrylic colors worked into her paper using dry and slightly diluted brushes.
During this period she experimented with different mediums, though she continued to create masterpieces using acrylic paint. Liliana’s work began to provoke emotions with the use of diverse colors and linear shapes. In 2018, after a prolonged absence from the art world due to illness, she decided to return to the United States to expand her influence in the world of American Art.

Since the young age of 3, Klein has not put down his artist tools. Klein's work focuses on the inner world of his subjects, and has a hyper sensitive approach to observing and conveying his subjects, melding the characters forms together with the world in which he/she inhabits to give a heightened sense of the persons expressed experience. The paintings and drawings he makes carry fragments of his memories and creates palettes of color to brighten up worlds that don't see enough light, and also describe the dark areas of the human mind which can also be quite comforting in ways.
"I'm using colors and themes that are familiar to me from my childhood. I grew up in a home that had a sense of warmth and it has a lot to do with Latin American and Eastern European cultural palettes and faces, so that is something that is embedded in my mind. In addition its about my sensibility as a uniquely formed person to try to explore and create visions I have never seen before myself in the real world, the kind of things you see in dreams...That is when all these elements come together."

Over the last several years, the execution of Edward Lightner’s art has become more and more process oriented. In understanding the titles, it is helpful to know how the Department of Energy arranged the groups of tests. For the most part, all the imagery he is using comes from the Nevada Test Site, where each group of tests were given a designation name, such as Flintlock, Fulcrum or Bowline. Within each test group there are then individually named test shots. This atomic testing is all archived with the DOE, so the coordinates of any specific underground test site can be acquired and entered on Google Earth. It is the resulting satellite images that are used to generate all his paintings.
The images are cleaned up and edited, with a kaleidoscope process imposed upon each. The transformed image is next put through a contour program. The result of these two manipulations is the final form that is then worked with. This process is applied in the same manner to the photographs of the land where each weapons related test shot took place. The Flintlock series also has an added collage element taken from medical information sheets, among other sources. The resulting works explore the aesthetics of beauty, but all are generated from a dark place.
