Artists Describing Their Art:

Monica Vanzant - "My favorite medium is oil and landscapes fascinate me but my personality forces me to continuously stretch my wings and try new things. My subject determines my media. This is why I paint in oils, watercolor and acrylic. I want to experience the entire spectrum of creating art. I am rarely totally satisfied with anything I do. I do not know if this is a good thing but I do believe it drives me to be a better painter. The turning point for me was when I started looking for composition and values in everything. Once I learned how to see as an artist, I started viewing the world and the people in it in a totally different way. To me, painting is a solitary endeavor so when I paint I am in my own world and nothing else matters until I am finished. It is the one thing I can do that does not need require anyone else's approval. My paintings are based on internal thoughts and emotions felt at the time I saw that face, landscape or a beautiful flower. Composition, color hue, media and painting style all set the scene for me to try to translate...

Marsha Savage - My paintings are about the journey and the expresssion of a chosen moment in time. I hope my paintings elicit feelings of warmth, cheerfulness and comfort, also reflecting the beauty and complexity of what I observe and feel about those moments. Capturing an effect is capturing the emotion of a place, recognition, and a feeling that one can identify with what the artist was trying to record. To make you see what I have seen is part of my objective; but to have you feel what I have felt is the ultimate goal. I am mainly a pastel artist and have been producing paintings for over 35 years. Originally painting in oils and acrylics, about 20 years ago pastels became my passion. Just recently, I started painting in oil again, and love doing them. I produce somewhere between 45 to 75 paintings per year in sizes ranging from 3" x 4" to 36" x 48" and have been selling 40 to 50 per year. The paintings are mostly landscapes with a few still life and nudes sprinkled in. I am essentially a self-taught artist, but in recent years, I have found many talented art teachers and studied as often ...

Linda Paul - Artists Statement" When asked 'What is your favorite painting', I always say, 'the next one I am going to paint!" Style: I don't paint in any one style, I let inspiration speak to me and I go with the flow. My work runs the gamut from chunky realism to abstract and impressionist painting. I use many different mediums to create my artworks. One of my favorites is egg tempera which I make by crushing stones and minerals and adding egg yolk. Blues come from crushed lapis lazuli, greens from malachite and natural green earth found around Verona Italy. I even use minerals found during hikes in the Rocky Mountains. I am captivated not only by the purity and naturalness of this medium, but by the science of it. Each pigment has its own set of properties and capabilities that must be explored. How better to express visions of the earth than with earth itself. This medium is luminous and lasts for centuries. also make my own acrylic paint in the same manner. By adding pure pigment to a acrylic polymer. I can add thing like crushed mica and pearlescents to make the painting come alive. Lately I have also ...

James Hill - My work explores the use of color and rhythm to create moving images that seek to provoke a particular mood or emotion by invoking a memory or moment that is meaningful to the viewer. My latest works include a study of the massive power inside thunderstorms and lightning strikes including a 6x10 oil of a storm entitled Tempest. These new paintings reflect the change in the weather patterns throughout our world thanks to global warming, which no well-educated person can deny these days. My paintings are intended to glorify the Masters Works and The awe of Creation, the Universe, the Stars and Planets, and our own incredible Earthly Skies and Lands. My other works include Fantasy, Gothic, Steampunk and Science Fiction of Utopian design cities of the future that require no use of fossil fuels at all as I look to give humanity hope for a better future of free power and sustainable living on this planet as we look to preserve it and encourage the rebuilding of nature across the world as we are but shepherds of Gods creation. ...

Vasily Zolottsev - There is only one law in art which carries objective character and comes from the very nature, conditional character and illusiveness of art! It is an indispensable condition of creation of an artistic image! It is necessary to judge an artwork by intensity and importance of the image and force of its emotional influence! Style, manner and technique don't have any importance and they are equivalent! The good picture of a primitive artist can be much more valuable in the art sense than a 'competent' picture of a realist and on the contrary! If there is an image, there is a work of art, if there isn't, it's no use crying for the moon! And it is not important which art means it has been reached by! Everyone to his 'own' taste! ...

Mr Wynne has exhibited in Thailand, the United States, Spain, Argentina, Kuwait, Korea, Ihdia, and other Countries. Sometimes perhaps I say too much about my self but maybe it helps people understand what motivates my work. For your information I've lived in 8 different countries and have been around the world 5 times. I speak a few different languages, some very well; others not so well. By the way I am not a workaholic as I don't consider what I do work. I enjoy life too much. I forgot to say I am also a weight lifter as lifting weights is my Zen. When I am troubled the concentration it takes to lift makes me calm. I guess my page will probably be a little different from what people expect. Sorry I have not been uploading new work as ...

James Simpson - Howdy! Sandpainting is an Ancient Art known across the Globe. My introduction to the Art was through contact with the Dine` of the Southwest United States. I met Joe Ben Jr. in Northern New Mexico in 1984 and was Honored to assist him in searching for pigments to complete a group of Sandpaintings for the Indian Fair in Santa Fe. Along the way, i picked up the essentials of Sandpainting and found my niche in this very traditional Art. My Paintings do not reflect the Way of the Navajo, but do use Southwest Themes and utilise various Gems and Minerals which are collected by Hand....
