Sandra Chevrier

Sandra Chevrier is a Canadian artist based in Montreal. Working in her home studio, Chevrier is constantly producing new products and ideas at a full time pace as an illustrator, painter, artist and also a single mother. Her work is mostly exhibited in Canada as well as the USA, UK, Europe and Asia. Her work takes her travelling over a broad range of fluctuating emotional enigmas and concepts that have set the standard of our modern communication. The series ‘’Super heroes Cages’’ obtains a worldwide success and is now in the hands of collectors all over the globe; Europe, USA, Netherlands, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Russia. The series "cages" is about women trying to find freedom from society's twisted preconceptions of what a woman should or shouldn't be. Chevrier creates this series by creating a collage out of old Superhero Comic Book pages and then using watercoloured paints to produce the women within her collage images.

Godfrey Caleb

Godfrey Caleb was an architecture who one day accidentally spilled coffee on some paper, being preoccupied he left the paper to dry. Later he recieved a phone call and during that conversation he began to doodle on the coffee stained sheet of paper; the result left him impressed and inspired. After retiring from architecture, Caleb began experimenting with art mediums, his main focus being coffee paintings. These involve using Coffee as a substitute for paint and also using Pencils for shading and outlining. Caleb has worked using other many other mediums too such as watercolour paper, canvas and yupo, but still he says "there seems to be the need everday to pour myself a cup of coffee, lay down a sheet of art paper and paint with coffee." He has been retired for several years now and even though he enjoyed his previous life as an architecture, he now finds peace at his cottage home or on field trips painting. Now he sells some of his Coffee creations and even takes custom orders to make money as well as that he sometimes teaches his Coffee painting methods to others who he refers to as his students, teaching them to "regulate the mixtures of coffee while painting to create the tones and intensity of the mixture to achieve depth and shades of shadows.!"

Coco de Paris

Coco De Paris is the artist name used by a French male artist based in France, who works within mixed media based designs. His designs focus on using acrylic paints or inks to create and rendered images on top of antique french paper from books that are over 200 years old. The idea of combining vintage paper with paint formed from the initial idea of joining Old with the New as part of his art. He also states that the vintage paper brings out the vibrancy of the image he had created. Coco De Paris began selling his work on Etsy in Febraury 2011; since then he has sold over 14,000 copies of his artwork with very good feedback. Many publishers from around the world are interested in his work for publishing posters, greeting cards, etc. He is currently working with a US WorldMarked Company who plan to edit a lot of products using some of his designs: mugs, soap, notebooks, towels, phone cases, etc.
