Audra Weaser Endless Sea
Audra Weaser (b. 1967) is best known for her large-scale abstract paintings which represent the changing effects of light in the natural world - from ripples on water to shafts glimpsed through a forest of trees. The artist’s process begins by applying layers of paint around a loose composition. The composition is refined and then obscured again with a veil of white. The final step is to sand through the layers of paint, a physically intense process that achieves a sense of depth. Audra holds a Master’s in Fine Arts from Claremont Graduate University. She currently lives and works in Los Angeles. Her paintings have been exhibited extensively and reside in private and public collections throughout the world—from New York and San Francisco to Hong Kong, Abu Dhabi, and Singapore.

Tyler Shields Chasing The Dream
“Considered the Andy Warhol of his generation, Shields has produced images that play with notions of the gaze, power structures, hyper-realism, iconoclastic-tendencies and cinematographic practice, but his Mouthful series of works are among his best known” – Sotheby’s
 
A Ferrari in flames? A Birkin bag in the jaws of a live alligator? No scenario is too risky or dangerous for L.A.-based contemporary photographer, filmmaker and writer Tyler Shields. 
 
From the beginning of his career as a young filmmaker, Shields was a favorite among celebrities for shooting portraiture with an edge. Now, a little more than a decade into his career, Shields has captured images of countless A-list stars in titillatingly precarious situations. In his fine art photograph, Shields employs the same seductive beauty that is dripping with sexual tension and laces with elements of danger. 
 
Shields is one of the youngest living artist to be in auction at Sotheby's and is renowned for his shows with record-breaking attendance across the globe.

Punk Me Tender 55
Punk Me Tender (b. 1982) is a French street artist whose brightly colored work explores themes of love, beauty, sensuality, and desire. Born Romain Lefebvre in Paris, France, he immigrated to Los Angeles at the age of 18. There, he was introduced to street art by fellow artist, Mr. Brainwash. The pair worked together creating art for over 15 years during which time Punk Me Tender practiced his art on buildings, bridges and underpasses of major cities of the world. Punk Me Tender’s work today melds techniques of street art, graffiti, photography, and fashion. His bold three-dimensional mixed media creations often use a silhouette of a butterfly as his focal point amid explosions of color and texture.  Spin art is one of the major techniques the artist employs in the work. “The technique I use is itself a transformation: I lay down colors over white butterflies, and watch them transform,” the artist says. “The same way a butterfly is born, and how it transforms itself from a chrysalis—my whole body of work is based on that. 

Inspired by the anonymity of Mr. Brainwash and Banksy, Romain began to work under the pseudonym, Punk Me Tender, a name derived from his great love for the legendary Elvis Presley and Daft Punk.  For years, he kept his persona hidden and used models as his stand-ins for interviews and openings. He revealed his true identity in 2020 as a way to connect with the world during the coronavirus pandemic but continues to use his alias artistically.   
Punk Me Tender’s original photography, bold colors, embellishments, diamond dust, and glossy acrylic coatings attract celeb icons such as Kylie Jenner, Khloé Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Mariah Carey, and Cardi B. He has held residencies at the SLS Hotel South Beach, Nobu, Astra, Club Miami and the Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Club in LA.

The final step is to sand through the layers of paint, a physically intense process that achieves a sense of depth. Audra holds a Master’s in Fine Arts from Claremont Graduate University. She currently lives and works in Los Angeles.

Hunt Slonem Blue Ascension Tues.
Hunt Slonem (1951) embraces the ephemeral beauty of nature, a characteristic that brings a nurturing, spiritual effect to his creations. Throughout his extensive career as a New York artist, Slonem has favored the subject of exotic birds, rabbits, and butterflies. Lately, his compositions have consisted of flat spaces with simple forms pushed to the front of the picture plane. The artist creates exotic forms with expressive and highly textural brushstrokes that are full of intense color, loosely inspired by artists of the German Expressionism movement such as Ernst Ludwig and Emil Nolde. Henry Geldzahler, a scholar of Hunt Slonem, notes that of contemporary artists, “he particularly admires the work of Malcolm Morely, Francesco Clemente and Roberto Juarez, all exoticists whose works convey a spiritual aura. Lest we leave the impression, belied by the paintings that Slonem is all depth and piety, we should note that there is a remarkable levity in his work, a lightness of being.” Slonem has always had a strong connection to the subjects he represents in his work. As a child, he first felt a connection to birds while living in Hawaii, which deepened further during his time in Central America where he was inspired by the people’s devotion and spiritual fervor. The fascination continued into adulthood; not only does he admire the colorful animals from afar, but he also collects the exotic birds, which reside with him in his New York studio. The lush studio is a sanctuary for the animals and the artist. His constant companions flitter and chat around him all day helping Slonem to capture his immediate surroundings with rhythm and style. Slonem’s works can be found in the permanent collections of 250 museums around the world, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the Whitney, the Miro Foundation and the New Orleans Museum of Art.
