About the Artists
Overstreet Ducasse - The art of Ducasse goes beyond the visual. His work is captivating, direct and abundant with metaphors and meaning. As an artist, Ducasse refuses to be locked down by one particular style. “The number one rule in art is that there are no rules.” He creates on a variety of mediums: from traditional canvas to wood frame doors.
Adrian Rhodes - Rhodes has always perceived the world with an aesthetic eye and an inquisitive, analytical mind. This allows him to live in his own world of artistry while simultaneously connecting with issues affecting the condition of humanity. His vision combined with the multiple realities affecting everyday existence is conveyed in his works using surrealistic elements. As an artist capable of using numerous styles/mediums to express himself, art is ultimately about presenting a concept and representing the concept as it is seen by the artist.
Roosevelt Watson III - Roosevelt considers himself an Abstract Surrealist Expressionistic Painter and Sculptor. Through movement and balance, color and line, Roosevelt aspires to create art that enriches the soul and entertains the mind, both spiritually and emotionally. Roosevelt Watson III currently resides in Savannah, Georgia. His artwork has been exhibited at the Ritz Theatre and LaVilla Museum, the Gullah Creation Gallery, St. Joseph Baptist Church and Starbucks Coffee.
