About the Artists:

Anthony Burks Sr.: A native Floridian and a conceptual fine and commercial artist, Anthony Burks Sr. has garnered recognition for his work in various media including charcoal, pen & ink, pastels, watercolor, and color pencil. With awards and accolades, including Best of Show in several art shows, Burks’s creations are also part of esteemed Museum Collections. Together with his wife, Trina Slade-Burks, he runs ATB Fine Art Group Inc. (ATB), boasting a 30-year legacy of artistic excellence.

Ann Eisenberg Friedlander: From receiving her first set of oil paints at age six to honing her craft at Parsons School of Design and Cooper Union, Ann Friedlander’s artistic journey is steeped in a deep understanding of perspective, composition, and symbolism. Her current works explore balance, rhythm, and depth through simple symbols and vibrant colors, reflecting her lifelong passion for art and storytelling.

Clifton Webb: Renowned artist and co-founder of the New Orleans Contemporary Arts Center, Clifton Webb employs a unique “visual alphabet” in his creations. With a focus on reverence and dignity, Webb’s artworks convey a sense of nobility and cultural significance. Through his symbolic imagery, he aims to celebrate the beauty and sacredness of African American identity.

Moreover, 10% of the proceeds from any artwork sold during the event will be donated to the No More Starving Artists Foundation’s Art AID Emergency and Micro Grant Program. This initiative provides vital support to artists residing in Palm Beach County, offering project-based and non-project-based assistance to nurture creativity and innovation in the local arts community.
