Professor Randall Exon is the Sara Lawrence Lightfoot Professor of Studio Art at Swarthmore College, Philadelphia, USA. He shows at Hirschl & Adler Modern on 5th Avenue, New York. He was granted a fellowship and residency at the Ballinglen Arts Foundation in 1998 where he returns each year. He is inspired by the mysterious coastal areas of Ballycastle, County Mayo, Ireland as well as the rapidly disappearing farmhouses dotting the Pennsylvania countryside where he now lives, Exon’s evocative landscapes and moody interiors depict actual places infused with memories from his childhood spent in the vast spaces of the Midwest.
Professor Jeffrey Reed is an Associate Professor of Art at the Community College of Philadelphia. He shows at Gross McCleaf Gallery on Sixteenth Street, Philadelphia. Jeffrey Reed received his MFA at the University of Pennsylvania and his BFA at the Maryland Institute of Art. He was granted a fellowship and residency at the Ballinglen Arts Foundation in 2000. Reed has mastered the art of handling light and atmosphere within his delicate, lyrical compositions. When he is painting on site he feels a connection with the familiar and a sense of discovery at the same time. He paints in the same locations multiple times allowing him to focus on changes in the light and atmosphere. Typically Reed works outside for two to three hours on a painting until he get the essence of a particular landscape. Then back in the studio, the work is focused on developing the forms and trying to resolve the design of the painting.
