Leo hailed from East Cleveland, Ohio and moved to Hobe Sound, FL with his wife, Judy. He studied design at the Myers School of Art in Akron, Ohio.  Leo’s passion was to create unique art pieces and photographs.  He said, ” I did an infrared study a few years ago. These wavelengths are invisible to the human eye; but visible to the sensor in the camera…just like photographing a spirit. Can’t wait to continue my artistic projects”.

The Back-Story

 

In 2000, Ronnie and Barbara Hedgepeth opened a small frame shop in Jensen Beach, Florida.  Childhood sweethearts, Ronnie had been the southeast regional manager of the frame business at Ben Franklin stores for many years. They named their store Friendly Framers. Ronnie and Barbara welcomed one and all with their southern charm and folksy ways, making friends of each of their customers.

As the years passed the business grew and moved into a much larger space in the Cedar Pointe Plaza on Ocean Boulevard in Stuart, where they flourished. Upon Ronnie’s death in 2019, Barbara vowed to keep the family business going. Three years later, when she called us, owners of The Gilt Complex in downtown Stuart, and asked if we would take over the business. She announced she was retiring to live with her son in the mountains of North Carolina.

For us, it was an easy decision to make. When we purchased The Gilt Complex, a custom framing and art restoration business, one of the first things we did was to stop by and introduce ourselves to Ronnie and Barbara. They couldn’t have been nicer. Instead of thinking of us as competitors, they welcomed us as colleagues – another friend. Over the years we worked together. They would refer projects to us and we to them – whenever one of us felt the other was better equipped to handle a particular situation. So, of course, when Barbara asked, we leapt at the opportunity..

That was in the summer of 2022. We remodeled the showroom, which even Barbara would tell you needed a refresh. We gave it a more modern look, with white walls, gray floors, and black display cases. We even added a computerized sales system. In a very short time our business has grown, to the point we are now adding a second showroom in Tradition. We still believe in the things Ronnie and Barbara believed in – a wide selection of high-quality frames and framing accessories, a strong devotion to the craft of framing, and an unwavering dedication to service with a smile.

With the remodeling of the showroom and a new store in Tradition, we decided that a complete rebranding was in order. Thus, Modern Edge Frameworks was born. We work closely with The Gilt Complex, who provides all our delivery and installation services. And we continue to build upon Ronnie and Barbara’s legacy, making friends with everyone who enters our showroom.  

~Duncan Hurd

“From the Block to the Canvas” by David German (Palm Beach County)   Mixed Medium  47.5”x72”

 

 

“My profound connection to music and the pulse of hip hop culture infuses every brush stroke and line I create. This synergy has propelled me to explore the intricate relationship between music and visual art through my project, Concept Rhythm. In it, I apply the principles of design and the discerning eye of an art critic to music, revealing the profound synchrony between these two seemingly disparate worlds.”  David German

 

MUSE is the only fair dedicated to Black, Multi-Cultural, and Women artists in Miami Beach during Miami Art Week & Art Basel weekend one of the top international art events in the world.

 

 

 

 

 

“Watershed” by Jane Lawton Baldridge (Martin County)  Acrylic Painting  49” x 34”

 

 

“My paintings are stories about my life on the water. Perfect days spent scudding along on the wavelets that reflect diamonds or bashing headlong into waves trying to survive the storm. I am grateful to have an unusual history of waterborne adventures. I want to share my stories and experiences with the audience in hopes of heightening their awareness of its importance, beauty and fragility.”

 

 

Thirty-four artists from Duval, Brevard, Martin, Palm Beach, Broward, and Dade Counties are represented in the NMSAF Exhibit.

 

Baseball Raydio Dynamic  Sculpture Restomod by Raymond Fernandez (Dade County) 50” tall, 18” wide, 12”

 

“I see my work as away to unite the past with the present by melting vintage and modern with unmistakable artistic flair. My goal is to spark a sense of history in others, uniting us all through time with an unforgettable multi-sensory experience.” Raymond Fernandez

 

 

This MUSE exhibit features an eclectic mix of paintings, photographs and sculptures from Black, Hispanic, Caribbean, and African artists residing throughout the US and abroad.

 

“Beach Slayer” by Matthew Yeandle ( Palm Beach County) Photograph Printed on Metal Size: 36″x36″

 

 

“My creative foundation developed as a multimedia artist and my experience over the years in the fashion and beauty industry has manifested itself in my present works of photographic art. My goal is to create images that resonate with current modern sensibilities. I am inspired by putting a fresh face on even older iconic subjects. Beauty draws me with a single hair.”

Meet Featured artists, Ilene Gruber Adams and Deborah Smith on Thursday evening, December 14 to celebrate the season with music, wine and ART at Zero Empty Spaces, a collective of 22 artists at Legacy Place Palm Beach Gardens, FL. The space is open to the public every day from 12 – 5. An award-winning artist, Adams works in both mixed media and photography, often combining the two in installation pieces.  Her photography is bright with over-accentuated colors; her mixed media work is usually nostalgic and delicate, and looks at how our world and life mesh together.  Newer to the art stage, Smith’s art fuses images from magazines, newspapers and books to create colorful collages that are uniquely whimsical, surreal, layered and abstract. This year, why not give yourself and your loved ones the gift of art. The Rickie Report shares the details and some sneak peeks.

New to Florida from Boston, Debora Smith (who has been doing collage artwork for many years) is using her retirement from a business and marketing consultation career, to spending more time on creating collages. Her art is quite eclectic, using images from magazines, newspapers, and books to create colorful collages that can be both whimsical and fanciful, or more layered and abstract in tone and composition.  Smith tells The Rickie Report, ” I generally have ten pieces going at once, so I need a fairly large surface space to mix, pick, and play with images as the spirit moves me.” Works for sale also include vibrant reproductions on ceramic tile and several size and framing options ideal for art lovers to collect or give as gifts.

Hand-painted one-of-a-kind Kate Spade handbag by Caryl Pomales

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She explains, “Although it seems like yesterday, it’s been a decade since my mom, (my very best friend and mentor) passed away from Alzheimer’s disease. In her final months, she lost her ability to verbally communicate; however, though words failed us, I knew that something must still speak. I learned at this point that when words fail, images and art speaks. Creative signs of affection and drawings became my primary form of communication. A picture became worth a thousand words and a lifetime of love”.

“Cuba Musica” by Deb Yager

 

 

 

 

 

Deb Yager lived in The Live Music Capital of the World, Austin Texas as a singer songwriter. She had the opportunity to play at many notable venues and see a plethora of singer songwriters live & up close. She drew local Musicians and their instruments. Then went on the road to play music all over the west coast from Washington state to South Florida. When she found a “for rent” sign tacked to a coconut tree (not kidding) and exclaimed “Stop the Car!!” I always wanted to live in this neighborhood! Got off the road for a month that turned into ten years! Yikes!

“Color Of Jazz ” Archival Dye-Infused Photograph On Aluminum by Paul Solovay

 

Barbara Krupp, living in both Ohio and Vero Beach,  has exhibited nationally and internationally in galleries and museums and her work can be found in many private collections, including the University of Tampa, who purchased fifty-three of her paintings. Originally trained as an x-ray technician, she likes to quote T.S. Eliot, “I have seen the skull beneath the skin.” The structure of the painting is very important to her, as she allows the bones of the painting – both computationally and metaphorically, become the painting’s subject matter. 

 

 

 

 

“Wiki Wacky Widget” by Barbara Krupp

 

 

Paul Solovay, living in both Upstate New York and Vero Beach, spent nearly thirty years as a top creative talent in advertising, creating many award-winning commercials.  His Pepsi commercial “Bringing Home Baby” is in the Smithsonian Museum and the Broadcast Museum in NYC.  His ‘Active Camera’ photographs translate musical sound waves into light waves, capturing the high energy of performance.  His new series “Time Capsules of the 20^th Century” feature multi-media assemblages with sound tracks and ephemera through the decades.
