After briefly teaching at Kent State, Parkes began pursuing art full time, traveling to Europe, India, Tibet, Nepal and Pakistan to enrich his craft. Originally painting Abstract Expressionist works, he developed his signature style of inducing startling effects through images of objects outside the normal sequence of reason and logic. A versatile artist, Parkes is also highly skilled in sculpting, and color stone lithography.

Neo-Classicist John William Waterhouse (1849 - 1917) created lavish works imbued with lifelike details and an otherworldly, haunting sensuality. Born in Italy and raised in Britain, Waterhouse merged Victorian narrative with romantic Pre-Raphaelite fantasy in his work, drawing inspiration from Greek myths, Shakespeare, Arthurian legends, Homer, Tennyson and Keats. A member of the Royal Academy, Waterhouse often painted dramatic scenes emphasizing powerful or tragic women. He created more than 200 paintings, and was one of the few artists to attain fame and fortune in his lifetime.

Gustav Klimt (1862 - 1918) was a brilliant Austrian iconoclast who rose from childhood impoverishment to become an artist who enormously impacted the Viennese Secession and Art Nouveau movement. Known for elaborate, explicitly sensual paintings and murals, Klimt's works also encompass themes of regeneration, love and death. Embedding his work with images symbolizing the freedom of art from traditional Western culture, Klimt's eclectic range of influences included Egyptian, Classical Greek, Byzantine and Medieval styles. A forerunner of Modernism and the Art Deco movements, Klimt's huge creative influence still resonates in modern art, decorations and jewelry.

Keith Levit first picked up a second hand camera twenty-five years ago. The ensuing years have seen Keith creatively pursue his concept of merging photography and art, in both the black and white and colour mediums. Although based in Winnipeg, many of Keith's images have been created during his extensive travels throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and North & South America. His passion for photography, love of travel and adventure, coupled with his sensitive, profound, honest affection for people, embody images that capture the heart and soul of the world's most remote and inaccessible regions and the people who inhabit them. Keith transcends the medium of travel-photojournalism capturing the mystical beauty, harmony and hardships of the inhabitants of these lands. ~ www.keithlevitphotography.com

Kinkade initially applied his talent to a set design job which served as an inspiration for his radiant, romantic style and his poignant images.
