Jamie paints mostly in oils, but frequently uses other mediums such as pastel, acrylic, gouache, watercolor and casein. She nearly always paints from life, with subjects ranging from portraits, homes and figures to animals, landscapes, and still life. Her work resides in private collections in Canada and Europe, as well as throughout the United States. She maintains her own studio in the Lower Hudson Valley, but prefers the "outdoor" studio.
Walter Mosley began drawing at an early age and always considered a life in art. After a year of college in Texas, he left his southern roots and began his first serious study with portrait artist Bob Gerbracht in San Jose, California. Later he returned to college, receiving a BA in Art from San Jose State University. Upon graduation, Walter moved to New York and began studying at the Art Students League. Walter has lived in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, NY since 1989.

During 2007 he has exhibited with the American Impressionist Society at the Hilligoss Galleries in downtown Chicago and is presently exhibiting in the Land and Light Exhibition at the Bryan Memorial Gallery in Jeffersonville, Vermont. He will be in the upcoming Audubon Artists 65th Annual Exhibition at the Salmagundi Club in New York.
