Cade Burkhammer is an award winning painter and touring drummer from Cleveland, Ohio, now living in Petaluma, CA. Cade has enjoyed showcasing and selling his art all over the U.S. since the 90’s.

Cade states, “Within the need for the expression of un-dictated reality, the confines of conditioning and cultural aesthetic are blown open by potent images that emerge from the collective unconscious. It is my intention to represent both the power of this ongoing dream and its accessibility through individual interpretation.” Mr. Burkhammer is presenting select works from a tarot deck he has designed, which combines traditional wisdom and his own experiences into a functional form of art. Cade’s new work displays his innovative technique that mixes a chaotic abstract technique blended with figurative drawings set against a textured background using watercolors, colored pencils, and crayons.


Leonardo Ferri’s photography presents time and shows emotion in a refreshing and invigorating way. The world portrayed through his lens captures a diverse and inspiring array of subjects, from breathtaking buildings and landscapes- to people. The city-scape photos he is presenting are of particular interest because those images show the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area as one of the wonders of the world. Leonardo lives in Marin Countyand only recently begun sharing his work. He is gaining many invitations and a strong response from audiences. This is a good time to acquire his work at reasonable prices. View photos at: http://leonardoferriphoto.com/p51931145
