Artist’s Statement The powerful voice behind my paintings is that of my spiritual side. All people are equal. We are here aspiring to love and be prosperous, so lets do this in harmony. Creating art that provokes a positive and deepening emotion is important to not only my soul but the soul of the viewer. Im a firm believer that we must surround ourselves with art that is moving and thoughtful rather than dark and depressing. Where we are going as humans should be that of positivity and happiness rather than receding to the depths of negative humanity. Biography Brandy Lynn Magill was born in Syracuse, NY and raised in Chugiak, Alaska. She learned to paint at a very young age from her Grandmother, and excelled best in music and art classes. Inspired to discover a bigger city, she moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida at age 20 allowing her to explore various artistic outlets. She studied fashion and quickly turned to fine art painting. She studied at The Academy of Art online for a BFA in Painting. Brandy currently resides in South Florida where her studio is located. She is a mother to her son born in 2014. The strength it takes to be a parent/mother pushes her to grow and develop as an artist and in her yoga practice. To create an environment where positivity thrives through color and creativity is very important in her daily life. You can see this application in her paintings and subjects. Brandy is a firm believer that happiness and positivity can come from both Yoga and Art. The combination of spirituality and art is at the core of Brandy’s paintings.

Rafael Montilla

Photographer; Visual Artist; Art Performance, art installation, street art

"Life is a pure flame and we live by an invisible sun within us.” Sir Thomas Browne Ever since I can remember, I have given importance to two things in my life: internal seeking and art. My works of art are concrete and essential approximations of my own inner and outer experiences. They are simple; they reflect me. I have based my work on the flower of life and Metatron’s Cube. Geometric Abstraction allows me to convey deeper thoughts to my audience as a divine human gift. My art is a strong response to the chaotic world around us. Exploring the elements of geometric shapes, light, and color in the combination, I try to bring about harmony, unity, and balance. I would like to reduce my artistic vocabulary to dots, lines, and shades of white. My biggest challenge is to simplify my art expression. Born in Caracas, Venezuela. I have exhibited my artwork in various cities in the United States such as Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Weston, Las Vegas, Coral Gables, New York, and the world as Canada, Spain and Venezuela HONORS AND AWARDS: Special recognition for contribution to the Art in the community, delivered by the Mayor of the City of Doral (Miami Dade), Juan Carlos Bermudez, April 27, 2017 Tomas Regalado, City of Miami Mayor proclaimed August 19, 2016 as Rafael Montilla’s Day.

Leonardo Montoya

Visual Artist

Statement I believe that the universal language of the arts can break through cultural and personal barriers bringing us closer together as human beings. I was raised by a strong and loving community of women. They have been a big influence throughout my life. Common themes represented in my work are cultural diversity, gender equality, race, and the empowerment of women. I offer my perspective about the characters that I portray that remain close to my heart. Portraying the uniqueness and strength of the individual allows me to speak to the sameness of our humanity in parallel to the beauty of our cultural differences. I do this with deep respect and admiration for what we share and what makes us different. My art is my voice and my connection to the world. Biography Leonardo Montoya was born in Medellin Colombia in 1972. Since his childhood, he has expressed a deep interest in art and the human figure. At the age of eleven, he began his formal studies of drawing and painting. He entered the Eladio Vélez School of Fine Art in Medellin in 1985, where he learned different art techniques.
