The Artists
Patrick braoudé
Patrick Braoudé is an actor and filmmaker. He is the author of many directorial films, such as Great my parents divorced (1990), Neuf Mois (1993), Love and Confusions (1996), Second Life (1999), Iznogoud (2005).
He has been doing photography since his teenage years, but has decided to exhibit his photos since 2013 at the Villerville Festival.
He presents us photos with a strong pictorial aspect, without retouching, which amuse themselves to give the illusion of paintings, on a mode “impressionist” while preserving the instantaneous of the photograph … effects obtained with the taking without computer work …
“Digital Impressionism” Claude Lelouch said with friendship during the exhibition Deauville … with a touch of timelessness. Simple photographs of everyday happiness.
As a filmmaker who likes to watch his contemporaries, I like to take the time to observe the beach: groups of friends meeting for a moment of friendship, families in search of relaxation, couples of lovers come to isolate themselves, solitary in reflection…
My photos are snapshots of these “spy” lives. Characters often back, sometimes masked, or against the light … fuzzy beings, shadows, “ghosts”, sometimes even just color tasks …
With this special light from Normandy, which gives the sea its amazing hues, from green gray to Prussian blue, to the yellow sand of rare sweetness, to parasols and beach accessories with their sunny luster.
Some pictures are like the storyboard of a movie.
Julio Espada
Awarded “Outstanding Cultural Contribution Award” by the institute of Cultural of Puerto Rico. New York based artist / designer Julio Espada continues to evolve as a visual creative in various fields.
These first six drawings in a series named “sunrise / sunset, rising moon / setting moon”, explores by way of graphic universal language of form and color, a completion of cycles experienced in nature as could be understood by anyone / everyone anywhere / everywhere anyday / everyday.
Other “variations” in the series are an ongoing dialogue exploring impact and emotions, expressed through color when applied to repeated image as the vehicle, much the same as a musical variation.

Flavor Standard
Mr. Flavor Standard has always loved art. At a young age he picked up photography as a hobby and has taken pictures all his life.
Now that he is older, he sees his photography as something that he would like to make public with the rest of the world. Mr. Standard looks forward to the day when people/collectors see his vision and share his art with the rest of the world.
