MERCEDES FONTAINE
Another artist featured at this week's Off the Wall Art Exhibit is Mercedes Fontaine. Born a Haitian girl in an American world. Raised in Brooklyn N.Y. with the flavors and culture of an Island a thousand miles away all swirled together in New York. Expressing myself in colors, I left paintings & sketches of the world around me everywhere I went. Found my way to Miami where this Caribbean girl met a Cuban boy and we moved to the west coast, San Francisco. Years go by and the big cities start calling again and off to Chicago I go. So this is where you find me now, in the city of big shoulders trying to get the colors just right.

STEPHAN GIANNINI
Another of the artists whwill present Off the Wall Art Exhibit this weekend is Stephan Giannini, who gave us this biography:
I grew up in Chicago where developed an early interest in visual art. I paint in oils, create public and private murals and decorations and do commissioned paintings I attended the American Academy of Art in Chicago, Chicago’s Palette and Chisel Art Club, and The Lyme Academy of Fine Arts in Old Lyme, Connecticut.
I spend as much time as possible painting and drawing my own work, but In the last 10 years I have also worked on historical restorations of large-scale decorations and murals in many major secular and religious buildings, working on over twenty different projects, including three state capitals and several cathedrals.
