Although Debbie Pisacreta's landscape paintings suggest a more quiet reflective quality while Charles David Viera's expressionist animals paintings resonate action they both admit to being inspired by such diverse masters as Matisse, Hopper and Fairfield Porter.
"I think any one that is familiar with those artists mentioned will see and appreciate our connection when they see the exhibition," said Pisacreta. "Both of us try to do as much as we can with color and use it as a vehicle to touch the viewer," added Viera. "Debbie's oils have a wonderful calm ,almost pastel like quality about them while my works are almost violent with slashes of paint and line that I use to suggest movement and power."
