           Christopher Burch is an artist living in southern Virginia who grew up with art and has actively pursued oil painting as a primary artistic medium for over 20 years. Burch is best known for painting large expansive works in which his respect for abstraction is expressed in the skies and waters of his landscapes. Some of his most common subjects are the Outer Banks of North Carolina, Jamestown, Virginia and the endlessly scenic countryside. ~ Burch's Jamestown Collection series was chosen for an American Landscape Exhibit in the Art in Embassies Program.
 
           Lee Boynton grew up summering on a small island off the coast of Maine where he discovered a quality of life that appealed to his visual perception of the world. He loved the pristine beauty of the rugged coastline and the dramatic changes in mood that their lives occurred with shifts in the weather. Lee captures the deepest essence of atmosphere and impressionistic color. His work, both oil and watercolor, is infused with a powerful quality of light. ~ Boynton studied at the Arts Students' League in New York and the Cape School of Art in Provincetown, Massachusetts.
