While koi are often associated with Japan, their origins are actually in China. The common carp, from which koi are bred, is believed to have been domesticated in China as early as the 4th century BC. However, the specific colorful koi varieties, like the ones we see today, were developed in Japan, particularly in the Niigata Prefecture.

Photography has been a lifelong passion, starting in high school when I got my first camera, a Canon EF. I had my own darkroom, and after photo expeditions I developed and printed my own film and sold photography as art in local art shows on Long Island. Photography led me to a career in printing, and being recognized in the industry as a color expert gave me to opportunity to travel abroad and throughout the USA. After a successful career, printing led me back to the camera and I decided to pursue my passion by diving fully into photography. My main business is Real Estate photography and business headshots, and in one of the homes that I photographed, I spotted photographic art from a well-known photographer, and thought “I can do that.” Now I do. I have always had an eye for capturing interesting subjects, and wherever I go or have been, I always look to find “the right photo.” Now I am proud to offer fine art photography from past and current travel, from home and abroad that can be displayed and appreciated in any home. Welcome to JMAUROPHOTO Artworks. Enjoy!

Lindy Blosser is an award winning soft pastel artist. She specializes in both portraiture and animal art and accepts commissions.
I am a self-taught artist whose work explores empathy, identity, and the human experience, intricately woven through social justice and introspection themes. I examine the stories of everyday life, offering a lens through which we can confront challenging questions about race, equity and the state of shared humanity.
My master’s degree in reading education and thirty years of reading aloud to children and being read to by children from storybooks where picture and text go hand-in-hand have influenced my creative choices. The daily interactions with children and the moment-by-moment immersion into their concrete thinking rests on my canvas via vivid colors, text, simple lines, shapes, and textures set into a narrative.
My practice is guided by the belief that art can foster empathy. My compositions often juxtapose vulnerability with strength, aiming to dissolve the barriers that separate people from one another; urging viewers to engage with the artwork and the issues it represents.
The fine art of Miles Davis spans an array of subject matter from spiritual figurative to politics, funky florals, and whimsical illustrations. His paintings borrow aesthetics from mass media, calling back to his generation’s culture of comic books and video games. The subject matter often portrays the contradictory impulses of people’s moral compasses and animal instincts, whether happy, remorseful, or brutal. Due to the diverse scope of emotion and transcendental qualities available in his pieces, Miles’s work has connected and resonated with a wide audience. In the end, he hopes the viewer can take from the work a sense of the universal human condition and possibly look inside themselves and evaluate their own spiritual sensitivities.
The artwork of Miles Davis has been embraced by thousands of people, worldwide. His paintings are included in corporate and private collections throughout the United States. Amid exhibiting in various local and regional galleries and shops, Miles also teaches art classes and private lessons to children and adults and is creator of the highly anticipated children’s books series Butterpup & friends™. Miles resides in Smyrna with his wife Merissa and their vivacious puppy Pica.
Using recycled glass as my canvas, I interpret the colors and patterns of Nature in my pieces.
