Family Art For Sale

Artists Describing Their Art:

Lucille Coleman - Although I'm able to produce other imagery, the figure has been my main subject. I believe that if an artist can capture and express the figure well, he can master any subject. I have explored the following themes to name a few: chic erotica, forms of dance such as latin and hip-hop, the family, conceptual themes pertaining to people in business, men and women in positive leadership roles and societal issues. I enjoy painting subjects and themes by using a loose, bold, direct and painterly brushstroke or flat graphite strokes over a solid drawing. Spontaneity and making visual statements by the "less is more" method is very gratifying for me. In addition, the chiaroscuro lighting of subjects fascinates me and I never tire of its effects of light and shadow. I am influenced by the works of Joaquin Sorolla, John Singer Sargeant, Caravaggio and other painters of his era, Wassily Kandinsky, Phillip Corey, Impressionism, and many great illustrators. ...

Olaniyi Akindiya - My works focus on moments. Time, present in seconds and minutes, can only be preserved through documentation, as memory is fleeting and easily forgotten or transformed.

The result of which may be mixed media painting, sculpture, installation, video, photography, sound, or performance. Found objects that relate to a particular society or community are central in my work. They may be woven, sewn, glued, welded, nailed, collages, cast, or carved. They may be mounted on canvas as 2D mixed media painting, or used as sculptural 3D work. My works invoke touch and tempt viewers to forget how to move their feet. I am always trying new things, experimenting, and challenging myself with new techniques, ideas and materials to interact with people. I have dedicated my life as an interdisciplinary artist to easing pain ...

Brett Roeller - Artist, Sculptor, Author, Luthier... I have the attention span of a small child and get mischievous when I get bored, so I stay busy. My usual artist statement is generally pretty boring because I am more interested in the message then the details about myself. I express my innermost fears, desires, and emotions in my work, but ultimately you have to decide what you see in my work, and what it says to you. If you look at my work and feel an emotion, I have succeeded, regardless of what emotion you felt. Hit me up on Facebook at
