A self-trained Norfolk, Virginia native, Jason combines an
affinity for the human form with a streetwise sensibility. He
expresses an unpretentious gift for elevating the ordinary to
the level of mythology. As can be found in his Seven Deadly
Sins and Three Muses series, Primm adds his own twist to
the teachings of the classical masters, uniting the mundane
with the divine.
Chuck Selsor has made New Orleans
his home for the past six years.
Coming to the city from Raleigh, North
Carolina via Norfolk, Virginia, this
former Naval officer offers clean, solid
design through his innovative use of
industrial material. His work combines
form and function to create a harmony
of elegance in use. His craft is on
permanent installation in the Cocowalk
in Miami, the Alladin Casino in Las
Vegas, as well as in numerous
locations in the New Orleans area, and
has been used as set pieces in major
Hollywood productions.
Steve Williams has been a
well-known figure in the New
Orleans art scene for 15 years.
Drawing his inspiration from the
emotional extremes of life, he
has channeled his energies into
painting, illustration,
printmaking, and occasional
music production and promotion.
His unique view of pop culture is
at once chaotic, bold and
abrasive.
Houston Oldland hails from Pennsylvania and is a graduate of the
Corcoran College of Art and Design in Washington, D.C. His multimedia
works are inspired as much by the paintings of Piet Mondriaan, Mark
Rothko, and Anselm Kiefer as by his own rebellion against traditionally-
taught methods of painting. Oldland’s canvasses challenge the viewer
to find beauty and order in chaos.
A New Orleans firefighter
by day, Steve Martin has
been an artist since
childhood. Although he
insists he doesn’t take art
that seriously, his paintings
and sculpture speak of a
natural talent. Steve’s
paintings and stained-glass
hangings were featured at
this gallery during Art For
Art’s Sake 2004.
