Artists Describing Their Art:

Aharon April - The art style of Aaron April moves from contemplative figurativism to expressive symbolism. AprilaEURtms paintings impress with their colorful, temperamental riot of colorsVictoria Khan-Magomedova. However, within this chaos, one can find subject and content. CriticsVictoria Khan-Magomedova, Mathy Fishernoted that Aharon April is one of those artists who can tame the chaos, prompting viewers to formulate answers to the questions posed by the artistic work, and solve the mystery of it. There lies the leading value of the artwork.Salvator Daly and others. From the seemingly erratic pulsating strokes, one can discover crop faces, figures and even biblical characters.Efgraf Kontchin. Color in AprilaEURtms paintings has special meaning largely because of extensive experience in watercolor, which combines the finest nuances of color combination of Mideteranian nature and compositions involving biblical and universal themes.Wladimir Prokhorov, Mathy Fisher....

Stefan Fiedorowicz - The language of lyrical abstraction interpreted... by Michael Bouger 2008 Stefan Fiedorowicz, a Canadian now residing in Vienna Austria has amassed a most impressive resume with shows spreading out from Canada, United States and Europe. Fiedorowiczs work has often been compared to the great modernists of the past following the notable style of lyrical abstraction, a term meaning an opening to personal expression. While perhaps a compliment, this also seems a disservice to his striking talent. The emotion in my work comes from somewhere deep down, and can speak to the inner part of each person... My work is intuitive colour is the language that I use to express an emotion. It is the interaction of colour that interests me. Fiedorowicz possesses something more than a painter following in the footsteps of others before. There is a supreme depth to his work that captures a newer sense of Modernism, something that is sadly missing from the current art scene. His shapes and lines infuse his paintings with a richly exotic symbolism of style. There is purpose and psychology to his work, conveying a sense of confidence from a broad spectrum of experience. Fiedorowiczs distinction as a modern painter is in ...

Anna Shchelochkova - My work is an attempt to understand and depict the concept or phenomenon of interest to me using the expressive properties and beauty of the line, color and geometric shape, which enable the expression of the idea at a high abstracted level. I strive for simplicity of expression without loss of aesthetics, conciseness of compositional and technical techniques, maximum use of the possibilities of pure color and simple geometric shape. I am interested in finding my own interpretation and understanding of pure color, working simultaneously with different textures of oil and acrylic paint. The purpose of my work is to create works that have a beneficial effect on a person, causing interest in self-knowledge and understanding of the world order. I hope that the lack of familiar images in my work will interest the viewer and draw his attention to the meaning, not the visible, familiar side of the phenomenon or concept, as well as cause interest in the visual language of artistic creativity....

Engelina Zandstra - 'In the labyrinth of my thoughts there are many roads leading to the unknown' LANDSCAPES OF THE MIND Engelina Zandstra is a Dutch artist living in Amsterdam, Netherlands. My way of working is spontaneous. It starts with a concept, an idea in my mind, which is in most cases not well-defined. It can have its origin in the images that are stored in my imagination, or in the impressions of daily life. The paintings made in this way can be considered as'Landscapes of the mind', because they are reproductions of the ideas that are formed in my head. The style of the paintings can best be described as lyrical-abstract. Sometimes they are more figurative, at other times fully abstract. Colour is very important for me : the alchemy of colour. This defines for me the atmosphere of a painting. Usually I work in many thin layers of paint on top of each other. I let myself be guided by the forms and colours that develop during the process of painting. Each new layer gives inspiration for the following one, with new ideas. Because of the different layers and colours, the acrylic paint gets depth and character. Sometimes the...

My work develops in cycles from figurative to abstract and back to figurative.

Still, I hold manual vector to be the only cooperation between the artist and the computer that offers a new language of form while leaving the artist in charge. On one side there is digital raster painting, where the artist is fully in charge but there is no difference with traditional painting. On the other, computer generated painting offers renewal, but the computer takes the lead. Its ...
