The new art center - coming in 2008

This website was designed by Eileen Coladarci as research coordinator for the Office of Institutional Advancement.  The site includes representation from the students, the faculty and the alumni of the WestConn Art Program.  Eileen provided a venue for the artists of the WestConn Art Department to showcase all they do within the many diverse art communities.

Click on the links throughout this site to view works of art and the individuals who create them.

Please Note: Some of the images included in "Art after WestConn" or it's links may depict partially nude subjects.  These are representative of each artist's creative talents only and are the sole responsibility of the artists. Images are available for publication through contracts negotiated with the artists. All art enclosed herein is copyrighted.

It is my dream to create an art which is filled with balance, purity and calmness, freed from a subject matter that is disconcerting or too attention-seeking. In my paintings, I wish
to create a spiritual remedy, similar to a comfortable armchair which provides rest from physical expectation for the
spiritually working, the businessman as well as the artist.
