Animal Nature : Powerful Paintings, Drawings and Digital Prints by Hyacinthe Kuller-Baron
Computer Arts Gallery -
Ocean Beach, CA USA United States of America

The Hyacinthe Kuller-Baron Exhibition "ANIMAL NATURE" is the inaugural show of original paintings and digital computer graphics at the Computer Arts Gallery at 4985 Voltaire in Ocean Beach, CA. The powerful, large paintings and drawings are commentaries on human nature and the way we perceive animals. In "Out of the Deep"; a 5' x 6' giant head of a whale stares at us with one eye as it emerges from an acrylic sea of aquamarine and rich blues. The palette deepens to darkest greens in the large glimmering image of dying fish in "Dead River Slough". Fearsome dogs attack the viewer in "Dogs of War", a fierce reaction to 9/11 and an artist's visual expression of the ugliness in both animal and human nature. Hyacinthe Kuller-Baron has been a Premiere Portfolio Artist at absoltuearts.com since 2002. Read Indepth Article

Call for Artists : The Beast In Me, Johnny Cash - Art Influenced by the Struggle of a Man'
Nave Gallery -
Somerville, MA USA United States of America

The Nave Gallery is seeking artwork, literal or interpretive, which speaks to the true spirit of this American artist. All media are welcome, including video and installation. Organized by Jenn Harrington. "The beast in me is caged by frail and fragile bars." - Johnny Cash (from a song written for him by Nick Lowe). Rebel, lover, family man, adulterer, addict, believer, sinner - Johnny Cash is the epitome of struggle. And, while we all suffer the contest between our wickedness and our righteousness, perhaps what makes this man different from most is that he embraced both. Desires to destroy/create, compassion born from being in the muck, a joy that comes through when one knows sorrow so well˜that is grace, that is Johnny Cash. Read Indepth Article

Five Mistakes
Jason Horejs, USA
Did you know on an average week I may be approached by as many as 20-35 artists looking for gallery representation? Most of them are ineffective. Are you making the same mistakes they are?
Before I explain, let me introduce myself. My name is Jason Horejs. I have owned Xanadu Gallery in Scottsdale, Arizona for more than eight years. Several years ago, I began to wonder why artists were inept talking to galleries. I quickly realized most were unsuccessful because there is very little information explaining the best strategies.
That lack of information often leads to these blunders:
Mistake #1: Presenting an inconsistent body of work.
Artists generally love their freedom. They want to experiment. They love a challenge. They crave variety. All good things, except when you are presenting your work to a gallery.
