John Cortese founded VanGoghAgain in 1999. Prior to opening of VanGoghAgain, Mr. Cortese worked for Tangent Imaging Systems for twelve years as an expert in digital imaging, software development and technical support. At Art Expo 96-98 his work was well received in the art community. At Tangent, Mr. Cortese identified the need for a large flatbed color scanner in the fine art giclee print market, which led to the development of the 44x72 Eclispe scanner. Mr. Cortese dedicates his expertise in color management and technical support to contribute an excellent product to his artists.

Since the conception of VanGoghAgain Andrea has continued to fill many facets throughout the organization. With her extensive background in business management she oversees public relations, marketing and accounting. She is the glue that holds VanGoghAgain's operations together.
