GREG PITTS www.fineartamerica.com/profiles/greg-pitts.html
Born to a single parent family, Greg Pitts started out life at a disadvantage. Growing up without a father figure made life less than ideal. He did not meet his father until the age of 12. As a young teen, he exhibited artistic capabilities, however the lack of understanding and from his family lead to discouragement. He continued to strive to express himself artistically. He purchased his first camera on lay-a-way from a camera store in his hometown of Lima, Ohio.
His artistic eye and fashion sense while a senior in high school lead to him was offered admission to a prestigious fashion design school, but because of stereotypical attitudes, students at school would call him a nerd and at home no one would assist him in the application process, stating that that kind of stuff is for sissies. Discouraged, he graduated without any formal plans. Later, he joined the Army in order to provide for his soon to be born son.
Despite a difficult start in life, he continued to express his artistic side.
Greg Pitts abstract artwork has been compared to that of abstract impressionist artist Jackson Pollock. He was the featured artist of the month for February 2009 with Elements of Art and has been exhibited at Etra Fine Art Gallery and Ornare both in Miami, FL.
PAULINE BONILLA www.flickr.com/photos/donttouchmapeyote
I am currently a student at Miami Dade College in the process of getting my A.A in Fine Arts to then transfer to USF St. Petersburg Graphic Design School. I also work in Miami Dade College’s Visual Resource Center as an assistant to the Art Director; a Fine Arts library setting for students to learn Art from Prehistory to Contemporary and engage in Art exploration through digital media and slides.
My passion for Photography began early in High School and since then I discovered ways to express myself with others through Art. I want to show the audience what I see, that’s all, think of it as an invitation to my world.

Life Is Art, Soul Of Miami and Tony Major Events bring you another installation of the River Of Art Showcase and Party. Showcasing local south Florida talent and raising money to support the arts, this week promises to be an excellent time. We have two amazing visual artists, Kris Starry and Alan Laird, plus, a designer of beautiful fashion accessories, Emily Peters, all seranaded by the sultry sounds of songstress Cat Shell. You do NOT want to miss this. A wonderful way to wind down for the middle of the week.
As a special bonus, we are partnering with Social Media Club Miami to raise funds for families affected by the Gulf Oil Spill. Voluntary donations will be collected at the door or online. A short presentation on the charity and the situation will take place.
And be sure to text bleumoon to 41513 to get your FREE drink!
Cat Shell, a seductive songstress residing in Miami Beach, FL, is here to bring her unique mix of jazzy pop/soul to the listening ears of the world. Cat has taken her eclectic taste in music and formulated a style that combines the sounds of the past with the present. Cat Shell’s music brings with it an aura of familiarity and radio-friendly artistry.
Her music explores and elaborates on themes of self-exploration, personal growth, and love, in a universally relatable manner. Since the release of her debut independent album “Cat’s Outta the Bag”, Cat has been busy performing throughout South Florida. She is currently working on her sophomore album to be released in late 2010.
ALAN LAIRD www.blackartproductions.com
Artist …social activist
Primarily work with paint on canvas and 3D installation.
KRIS STARRY www.starrynightphotography.net
Starry Night Photography was created in late 2009. Her forte is capturing impromptu moments of time, moments of love, and moments of joy. She prefers to maintain her distance to capture natural shots, but will be happy to gently guide you when another angle or better light would be more dramatic or flattering. Her second goal is for you to have fun, because she feels pictures don’t turn out well if you’re not having a good time. Her love of natural lighting leads her to use outdoor and other on-location settings, and she chooses her shooting locations to best match your personality. Let Kris Starry of Starry Night Photography capture and preserve your emotions and memories on your special occasion for not only your lifetime, but for those of generations to come.
EMILY PETERS www.PiazJewelry.com
I’ve been designing Jewelry for over 11 years and opened Piaz Jewelry – a subsidiary of E Apparel – in 2009. Every exceptional and playful piece is handmade by me for remarkable women. When I design jewelry for Piaz, I gravitate toward a modern, frenetic, and striking aesthetic. The Earrings, Necklaces, and Bracelets are constructed from Fine Silver, Sterling Silver and 14K Gold Filled Wire and Chain, glass and metal beads, and Semi-Precious Stones.
Piaz aims to be a source of inspiration – known for its quality, trend-forward products, as well as its social responsibility. The company champions sustainable business practices. We produce according to customer demand, and we reduce, reuse, and recycle whenever possible. Some of the elements of the Piaz jewelry collections are reclaimed from other jewelry pieces. Each piece is delivered in a handmade bag stitched (by me) from vintage materials and shipped in recycled boxes.
