Anthony is a painter and illustrator that seems to channel both his experience and his dreams into lush and layered paintings that document places in time. His characters seem to be floating through landscapes bending and changing into symbols on a flag, or a coat-of-arms, or an old box of soap.

Brian Lamora is one of Top Drawer's most meticulous artists. His method is drawing complex geometric designs that he delicately fills in. Each small segment is added to, divided and layered, creating mandala-like structures of pulsing color that take literally years to complete. He has recently donated work to the permanent collection at the Intuit: Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art in Chicago.

Katrina is an artist whose drawing style has developed from one-scene cartoons featuring her favorite people and things, into an explosive torrent of those things all swirled into one image. She has donated work to the permanent collections at the Intuit: Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art in Chicago and Lifespan, Rhode Island. She has had work featured in Providence Art Windows, and was most recently given the Award of Excellence in VSA Arts and Volkswagen of America, Inc.’s Green Light Exhibition, a three year touring show starting at the Smithsonian Institution’s Dillon S. Ripley Center.

For years, Paul Martland has been collecting blueprints and schematics, and delicately, selectively filling them in with permanent black marker in a purely meditative artistic process. The works' worn look is produced from his constantly bringing them with him wherever he goes, along with his huge bag of markers, and lend to the works' resemblance to ancient treaure maps.

Jackie's color-filled canvases of "windows" are like delicate little gifts, each with their own minimal color scheme and personality. Each is as bright and quietly exuberant as the artist.

Every day at Top Drawer Art Center, Emmet Estrada paints people who he says are from China, Japan, Mexico, France, or Egypt, all in the remarkably speedy handstyle of a graffiti writer, and with all the "Spirit Resonance" of traditional Chinese painting. Emmet's appetite for painting extends from canvases to any cardboard object, and today he paints on average 70 3" x 4" paintings per day, 200 per week. His work was recently featured in Providence Art Windows.

Kyle’s drawings form like a cocoon of gesture. Layers of pencil, pastel, and marker are drawn on top of one another until what is left are amorphic figures in a color-filled void, creating beautiful and unique compositions on paper or mixed media creations designed and built by Kyle.

Wendy is an illustrator who's created the world as she sees it. In that world, her friends and family, and well-dressed young ladies, exist among ghosts and angels. Her latest project is both abstract and fashionable, as she builds large colorful textures on canvases and plans on reproducing the designs on "shower curtains" and "business cods".

Stefanie's art is bright, poppy, and pattern-filled. Her work contains repeated images, stick figures, or colored squares arranged in neat rows, always with a punky attitude.

Sam is an intuitive designer, a minimalist pop artist. His work contains sparse patterns, bright and empty spaces, and references to pop icons, all with his trademark signature-caption.

DJ is an artist who's created amazing text pieces which are poetic, diagrammatic lists of things important to him. Imagery from the movie The Mask often appear in his work, as well as lists of important landmarks, in stunning displays of memory.

Michael spends his days at Top Drawer creating a world of floating words and images. Poems about his family, his memories as a boy, or even his immediate surroundings appear in and out of drawings that seem blown in on a gentle wind. His touch with pencil or marker is always tender, and his words and characters always emotional. His latest works are collages with polaroids taken from his favorite TV shows.

Doug is one of our most passionate artists. His work is driven by the fantasy world of dragons and warriors, Power Rangers and Pokemon. His objects include coins, game boards, shields, blood-filled vials, and dragon's eggs, all constructed through his own ingenuity. Every object has power and magic.
