Paula Prager Biography: Most biographies include where one has studied, what shows they have participated in, special recognitions and accolades. My own biography has been full of the above mentioned references; however, there comes a time in one's life when all this seems not so important when one considers where one is right now. Eleanor Roosevelt said, "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift; that's why they call it the present." For, certainly, all my past experiences as an artist, wife, mother and grandmother have made me the artist I have become.

Trimble 'Introspection' Fine Art Catalogue Scott A Trimble Biography: Scott A. Trimble examines the elusive nature of recall within the structures of relationships and emotional wellsprings as he focuses on their interplay with the sparks and shadows of the mind. Reusing and repurposing his own canvases, he partially obscures previous images to create multiple palimpsests that manifest the way our memories construct themselves over time. Engaging the intuition of eyes and hand, Trimble intends to tell a story that is partly his own and partly the story of each painting’s own making, mirroring the shifting, fragmentary nature of recall, and distilling it to a very short story that is completely untethered from time. Trimble's pairing of musical titles and ambiguous imagery invites your resonance with the human melody.
