Cecy Colichon Cecy Colichon’s recent body of floral still lifes takes its cue from the diffuse, multi-colored backgrounds of Japanese woodblock prints. The winding, asymmetrical orchid and iris blossoms that the artist chooses as her subjects also hearken the Asian tradition of landscape painting. Colichon studied at the National School of Fine Arts in Lima, Peru, and her works belong to several corporate collections, including IBM, Xerox and Goodyear.

Maureen Keough Maureen Keough’s pastel still lifes and landscapes are inspired by the artist’s experiences in everyday life.
