William Dick - STATEMENT My paintings record my interest in reconciling different and often estranged qualities and ideas in painting. I work through an experimental evaluation of the co-influence or confluence of organic and geometric, texture and structure, density and transparency, the sensuous history of paint and the austere tradition of minimalism. Within the context of abstraction, namely geometric and organic, I begin with the fundamental balance in painting between line and colour. I have drawn on ancient symbolic shapes from my Scottish background and I am influenced by the symbolic power of simplest forms of drawn lines such as the circles, concentric circles and spirals of Pictish and Celtic Art. Linear elements in my work derive from this source as well as from African and Aboriginal Art, Abyssinian Warrior Shields and Russian icons, and other lines and shapes that retain, in the broadest sense, some significance within culture. For colour I begin from observation of geological form and the substance of land of dust, sand, mud and rock as well as the outcrop of local street furniture architecture weather and the effects of weathering, and then of the often extreme and exotic colour of lichen, peat and mosses. My work exploits ...

Philip Hallawell - I work in various media: oil, watercolor, dry pastels, pen and ink and mixed media. My work is a result of a fragmented view of the world, which gives it a surreal quality. However, my process is not surreal, because I start with a definite theme that I wish to investigate. My main area of interest is people and the human form and I am constantly investigating the physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual aspects of Man. Over the years I have developed various series, which I revisit periodocally, investigating different aspects. In purely visual terms, what fascinates me is light and form and how I can use diverse visual elements in a complementary way, opposing, for instance, line and form, or rough and smooth textures. The use of diferent materials to achieve diverse expressions, either alone or as mixed media, along with alternating between a graphic representation and a painterly one, or mixing the two, is a very important aspect of the way I materialize my thinking into images. Equally important is the transition from very realistic images to a totally abstract means of expression and alternating between control and expressiveness....

Mirko Sevic - I am a painter of the darkness for a drop of good. Irretrievably, I immersed into the darkest corners of spieitual destructiveness of a human being in hope to describe it, to stay for a while. Humbleness of those who suffer captured my sensibility. I resist nit, I seek for the wau out. My images tried to be a message, no one replied. Now, they are just a sceam and I am not sure anyone can hear it. Mirko Sevic ...

Bodo Gsedl - In my works - portraits of individuals, surroundings and music - my goal is to catch what can not be seen at a glance. What is behind the image of a person? How can I make music visible? My art has to be explored. There is always something behind the first impression. ...

Lyudmila Kogan - My art is my diary a pictorial journal for painting discrete moments in time arranged by medium in which they are expressed. The medium spectrum runs from intuitive abstract expressions, to more complex reflections on daily events. Most of my art works are dedicated to abstract expressions of reality based on my personal reflections on life, environment, emotional expressions, and peoples characters. I am not concerned with the superficial and the obvious I try to capture the essence of a person, a moment, a state of mind, or an emotion. In my drawings I am not trying to imitate realistic attributes I am trying to mirror ones character as well as to express my own thoughts and feelings on the subject. Everything depends on what and when something caught my attention, made me think, or affected me. ...

Dennis Rennock - Dennis Hugh Rennock artist statement From the pure and simple clarity of vision to the intensely multifaceted and complex visual arts purpose is to stimulate individual growth in thought, perspective, wonderment and truth. Intellectual and emotional representation of line, stroke and color breathe life into the artists vision of truth, beauty, concern and or belief. Along with freedom, the artist employs a wealth of pragmatic disciplines and self-imposed principles to craft and reveal or refine a work of art. My work appeals to the general American and British audience, black and other people of color, major influences come from the mastery of Da Vinci, Escher, Thiebaud, Basquiat, Cassatt, Augusta Savage, Norman Lewis Chuck Close....
