Established artists Brian Leo, Ray Sell, Jonny Fenix and Shawn Bishop-Leo will showcase works alongside gallery newcomers such as Casey Porn, Tuffer Weidner and Donna Cleary.

"It is important that the work of rising young talent is not overlooked by the art world at a time when the market is strongest," states gallery co-director David Kesting. "The vitality of the art scene is fueled by ambitious artists who are aware of what the collector desires. Hence the title of this exhibtion."

Work from: Daniel Edwards, Jonny Fenix, Brian Leo, Ray Sell, Jason Douglas Griffin, David Meanix, Shawn Bishop-Leo, Donna Cleary, Ezra Talmatch, Seth Carnes, Sergio Coyote, Brenda Buck, Casey Porn, Lisa Kuppinger, Eric Trosko, Diane Dwyer, James Turek, Chris Georgalas, Graham Slick, Tara Deporte, Jessica Liberty, Allison Berkoy, Dave Tree, Tuffer Weidner, Nick Dyball and Lincoln Capla will be on display.

A total of 26 artists will be exhibited in this collection of stunning work. We hope you will be able to join us at the gallery's reception for the artists on Thursday September 4 from 7:00 until 10:00 pm.
