Occhuzzie's Newest Colors!


OPC is introducing 2 new colors!


Charcoal & Graphite!


The Charcoal is a rich gritty black, transparent, that is great for toning down values and creating shadows.


The Graphite is actual lead pencil in oil. A nice metallic luminous gray that will shine through on your paintings. Has large gray scale from dark rich to hard pencil light. Great for doing ground work and blending.

May's Featured Artist is Yuri Hayashi


Artist Statement ~Yuri Hayashi, St.Petersburg, FL


Water and stone, the pure materials is what lures me to begin the process of what I do. It holds my attention with limitless possibilities, pain, joy, and entices me with the way its lays down on canvas. At its purest I think of all of these things and nothing at all. The process is what is so seductive and captivating and why I am drawn to painting year after year. What can I do with water and stone, like alchemy, materials so common like mud or rotten rose buds and silver? How can I make them into something there not? Is it good enough? What if it is? These questions and the materials is what drives me to do what I do, push paint around till its something else. I am painter living and breathing this process. Composition and color are my tricks, like the magician is what I use to hold the viewer to decide what to make of it or how I did it. Just simply water and stone is where it starts.
