excerpt of Donald Archer's STATEMENT FOR VISUAL MUSIC
(to download full statement please click on link below)
I choose colors for their emotional effect rather than reproduce the colors I actually see before me (what we call ‘local colors’). Currently, I am using lighter colors and a lot of white which create the luminosity that I seek.
I want my viewers to be happy they are alive, to be excited by new possibilities and new ways of seeing and experiencing the world around them, and to feel relieved to be surrounded by positive energy.

Sharon Lobel is a landscape, nature and wildlife photographer and recently began photographing surfers and the ocean. Don’t let her city girl looks fool you because she had rather pitch a tent and hang out on the side of a mountain than go shopping any day!
In her younger years…she worked as a model, both in print and TV which has given her a great advantage in photography. Sharon is a self taught photographer and has traveled extensively around the world. She has experienced a wide range of adventures throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, Mexico, the Caribbean and United States.
Sharon is the 1st VP for PPLAC – Professional Photographers of Los Angeles County and has served as Secretary and Treasurer in the past. She is a multiple award winner with PPLAC and was named the 2011 Nature & Landscape Photographer of the Year and the 2011 Overall Photographer of the Year. In 2014, she was named the PPLAC Nature Photographer of the Year, Open Photographer of the Year & Sharon also received the Judges Choice Award.
Sharon currently serves as the State Secretary for PPC – Professional Photographers of California. She has several award winning images with PPC. Sharon is also a PPC Qualified Photographic Judge.
Sharon is a member of PPA - Professional Photographers of America and was named an International Silver Medalist winner during PPA’s 2013 International Photographic Competition. She was honored at PPA’s annual convention, “Imaging USA” in Phoenix, Arizona.
Sharon is also a photography educational & motivational speaker on “PMS”…“Passion, Motivation & Suitcase for Success”. She will dig deep into your passion and encourage you to find out what motivates you! Her “Suitcase for Success” is full of ideas from photographing insects to mountains and sharing her best tools and tricks while in the field traveling locally and abroad.

Every now and then an artist comes along whose music reaches out and touches the soul of all who hear them…virtuoso guitarist, singer and composer Vicki Genfan is among those artists… Drawing from folk, jazz, pop, soul and world music, Vicki is redefining ‘singer/songwriter culture.’ With a mastery of the acoustic guitar that borders on pure alchemy, audiences are mesmerized by the waves of sound Vicki creates with just two hands and her voice. Using 29 alternate tunings and the percussive technique she calls ‘slap-tap’, you’ll find the addition of her pure, expressive vocals that dig deep and stir the heart to be the perfect accompaniment on many of her songs. Vicki writes and beautifully sings her own brand of music and lyrics while putting her unmistakable imprint on familiar tunes like the Beatles’ Norweigian Wood. An evening with Vicki is far more than a concert; stories, warmth and humor come gift wrapped in an unforgettable evening of music that leaves the audience always wanting more.
