Anthony Ventura – Works

Evolve-R is Artist and Illustrator Anthony Ventura.

Anthony graduated from the Sheridan College Illustration Program in Oakville Ontario, Canada. After several very successful years as an Illustrator, Anthony began to pursue other financial endeavors all of which paid handsomely but left a void inside him that only making art could fullfill.

In early 2007 Anthony returned to his true form under the studio appellation Evolve-R.

Anthony currently resides in Toronto Ont., Canada where he is in his studio making with the art.

Contrary to popular belief, Anthony does not create music to make love to.

Evan Benjamin Harris – Works

Born among the briars & brambles in the backwoods of Melford, Oregon, Evan Benjamin Harris grew up with little knowledge of the bourgeois big city fine arts. So, he dove into the recesses of his own imagination and embraced the fables and folklore that fascinated him. With little to do but draw, he did exactly that. Now older, things haven't changed much.
The stories he created as a child are still present in his paintings. With diligence and hard work, Evan's crude stick figures became the more clearly defined images you see today.
With no formal art training, he creates on his own terms.
Broken boards, oil and acrylic paints, charcoal pastels, plastic resin, and melted waxes are among the mediums Evan uses. Then they are beaten, brushed, sanded, polished, and hung.
Most would cringe at the idea of scratching or sanding something they spent hours upon hours painting, but that's Evan's favourite part – creating the appearance that this wasn't made in the 21st century, but perhaps in the 20th.
So, behind every scratch and claw mark, there is a story to tell.
