Chris Walker - I am a painter from England, living and painting in Provence, France. I am passionate about original art, I paint mainly in oils, generally brightly coloured in all sizes and formats. Subjects vary from abstract, through whimsical and enigmatic to classic landscape. Styles also vary considerably depending on, viewpoint, season, surreal, impressionist, cubist. People, animals, trees and urban scenes feature in many of my works. Each painting is entirely original, influenced by my environment and by the masters and classics. My aim is to produce pleasing and thought provoking paintings, that can be lived with. I undertake special commissions. Please see more paintings and sold pieces at my website. New works are regularly added. New ideas are continuously considered. Just contact me....
Temo Svirely - Painting is not conceptual art. When someone looks at one of my paintings and asks me What did you want to say I find myself in a difficult position. That is, I've already said what I wanted to say through the medium of painting. With the help of color, rhythm and so on and to demand that I translate the language of art into the language of words is impossible, to say the least. I am an artist, not a writer , my materials are oil-paints, ink, pencils and so on, and not words. What else can I say Ideas and concepts are far from being the primary concerns of the artist. Enthusiasm for ideas not to be confused with artistic plans or intentions distracts the artist from the wealth of interrelation with the material, which itself dictates to him the right course and rewards with time and patience. Of course it is worth pondering on how to make a work more expressive, but a real artistic moment occurs when a pause arises in between thoughts. I will take the liberty of reminding you that art, a picture, can be understood by a man and influence him deeply, effortlessly ...
Michael Auger - I dream in vivid color and an assortment of animals with diverse and animated personalities are continuously filling up the inside of my head. I paint them into existence using unapologetically bold color and a thick, chunky acrylic that begs to be touched. My art obviously appeals to kids but it also appeals to adults who want to express their offbeat side. The characters I create have wild eyes and a slightly-off quality to them. I believe that the true test of art is if it succeeds in evoking emotion from the viewer. My paintings usually make people smile and sometimes even laugh. ThataEURtms a wonderful vindication which motivates me to create more. I also enjoy experimenting with alternative techniques. Many of my paintings reveal additional colors and effects when viewed in ultraviolet light. I am inspired by the supernatural and unusual that hide behind the veil of reality and believe that the world is better off with a bit more silliness and magic. ...

Diana Rojas - My muse is the beauty of nature. It inspires me to take a brush and start creating my masterpiece. I love to do crafts as well, and my new project is coming to create some paintings with expensive gemstones like topazes, sapphires, diamonds.

They Make my pictures more alive and volumed, so masterpiece can be a real MASTERPIECE. ...
