His work has been exhibited in San Francisco and internationally.

She finds beauty in everyday places and objects by focusing on color, texture and shape to create abstract compositions which draw the viewer in. Her work can be found in private collections across the country. www.etheljimenez.com C. J. Schake is a photographer whose imagery has been influenced by her travels in Central America, Asia and the United States. She finds that San Francisco is a city where the artist’s heart is at home. Jimmy Leong is a photographer, painter and calligrapher. Creating art is a natural part of his being; influenced by his grandfather who was a painter, poet and calligrapher. Jimmy believes that being an artist is a life long journey. Judy On is a videographer, photographer, web designer and an independent curator. Her platform, at the moment, is digital media. It gives her the maximum pleasure to explore and experience visual expression on multiple levels. Judy’s conceptual videos are interpreted as abstract paintings on canvases.
