Artists Describing Their Art:

David Larkins - I've always been intrigued by the luminosity and transparencies found in watercolor and acrylic mediums. I believe an artist must experience the painting - to absorb the surroundings, the atmosphere, to have a oneness with the subject matter before the first brush stroke is applied. My style is described as "Abstract Realism" and my strength is found in the composition. I'm drawn to diverse subject matter that challenges the viewer to see abstraction in the ordinary - to meld the "real" world with the "abstract". ...

Tiziana Fejzullaj - My paintings are mostly oil and acrylic on canvas. My work consists of bright, bold colors and is mostly concentrated on nude paintings, human body, and silent nature. The bright reds and yellows make my stand out from the darker background. I always mix my colors before I begin my painting to make sure that the colors on my palette are harmonious. Before I start painting I always make sure I have at least three colors on my palette that are in the red, blue, and yellow tones. Color is what makes a painting stand out to me. Sometimes IaEURtmm drawn to bold color that vibrantly describes the elements in the composition. Other times I am fascinated by the muted palette of a quieter scene. Color is a natural extension rather than the basis of my painting. My creations mainly have the human figure as subject, which is mysterious in its nature. It is not just a face to a body. It is about the body itself, conveying the beauty it has. Showing male figures dressed as females is a strategy to challenge the tradition of the objectification of women. I love the mystique that men have and which ...

Luise Andersen - Luise'Mignon' Andersen Luise'Mignon' Andersen has only recently begun to reveal her lifes work. Soon after her debut she exploded onto the mainstream art world. Her breathtaking pieces have captured international interest. The stories Luise'Mignon' is telling through her truly deep, layered works seem to decipher the past and foretell the future, perhaps sharing her window to other dimensions and a seventh sense. Her detailed acrylic'Mignon' series speaks to the beholder. They inspire raw emotion and ignite ones imagination. The indescribable nature of the "Duree De Ma Vie" in particular has a growing portion of the art community considering it the conception of an entirely new style.

William Christopherson - The viewer sees a finished canvas. The artist relishes its journey of creation. A thought, a feeling, an experience, a place. These are the most essential of supplies as the artist tasks to expand, explore, and evolve along the path. All are welcome here, to view, appreciate contemplate, and possess the journeys I have made, and the journeys yet to come. Over the past several years I have explored the oil medium, borrowing technique from both historical and present day impressionism. Its a medium I love to work in, even though my wardrobe and studio surfaces have suffered immensely. Much of my work now reflects the pallet knife, and explores a prolific use of heavy colorful brush stroke. Everything continues to evolve, and thats a good thing Enjoy. William Christopherson, 2017 ...

William Christopherson - Randy Sprout - I grew up in a small town in Northern Iowa, played football, coached the swimming team, and graduated from the University of Iowa with a BA in printmaking studying under Mauricio Lasansky. I then went into the Army and ended up pulling 13 months in Korea on the DMZ. Coming out of Korea I entered UCLA and earned a MA and MFA in printmaking while studying under Jan Stussy and Stanton Mac-Donald Wright. The next year after the funds dried up on my Fulbright Award to Portugal, because of the Angola War, I was lucky to get hired by USC where I taught printmaking as a junior faculty member. I also replaced professors at UCLA when they went on sabaticals, and taught one year at Pierce College. In 1977 I tried Real Estate, you know just for the summer, but by fall I had purchased Century 21 Hollywood Inc. and had a new vocation going. Now 31 years into real estate, I'm coming full circle and starting to paint little quick studies 9X12. I'm using just 1/2 inch brushes and 5 colors. I intentionally limit my time to 2 hours after which I stop and throw ...

Durlabh Singh - Sice R.Mutt's urinal, visual art in the western world has suffered a shock & a decline.It has become mere conceptual & has gone back to literary traditions of making statements.Abstraction has become a puritan's attitude of non-depiction of human body in a dignified form.My art is a sort of revolt against this kind of pseudo-intellectualism. My art takes account of both biological & metaphysical aspect of human body.It is a breakthrough to new levels of reality creating significant forms necessary for development of human spirit. I welcome any suggestions or comments regarding my work. If anyone is interested in buying please contact me.Main aim of my art has never been financial gains. I have exhibited all over the world including India, Kenya, Helsinki, Paris, London & New york etc.My work is in private & public collections incliding Ministry Of DefenceLondon & Horniman Museum London....

Ruth Therese - For me it is difficult to explain the creative process. It is like trying to explain why I breathe. It is just something I need to do, something I urge to do. When I was younger, I was very shy. To paint, and the making of graphic works, became a way of expressing my self, my opinions and my feelings. Now, I am not that shy, but I still need to express myself by painting. Every single painting is consequently, in colors and forms, a part of me. And if you "feel" or understand the painting, it just became a part of you as well....

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! ...

Sumant Barooah - I like to do a lot of work on architecture and landscapes,especially buildings reflecting culture and landscapes playing magic with light. I am one of the opinion that photographs are work of art as no photograph can be reproduced;time and light move on as the year goes by. I like to do people in moods and sometimes the same people in different moods,varying with external or internal joys,excitement,aggravation or sorrow. Sometime even a child can have a blissful look. The photo-stories must be written with the view what the coming generations might not have the opportunity to see;not just history,environment and faith....

Sarah Katz Mount - Living in this volatile time my pieces signify the freedom of nature and imagination. Works throughout history always have historical, economical, cultural, philosophical value in societies throughout the world. In today's technologically advanced age the role of the artist is wrongly compromised. Symbolism, historical references, experience, and my own photography influences my paintings and are inspired by the magic realism stylization which rooted from the late 1800's and became popular in the 1920's. I manipulate perspective and space communicating movement giving my pieces a literary feel, and I hope everyone finds something inspiring like I find in powerful artists before me....

Maria Teresa Fernandes - Admiring Teresa's paintings we are touched by her pictorial sensitivity. Difficult task in light colors (volume and transparencies on a clear basis). Few do it due to the required dedication with pallete knife(no brush).It's painting consacrated by the love to paint.

Tanya Hansen - Tanya Hansen Artist Statement My paintings are largely autobiographical, an acute observation of the constant transformation of everything that enters my life. The bridge linking life and art is the surface I work upon in graphic design. By immersing myself in it, I go beyond myself, and become increasingly free. I use it to investigate, explore, manipulate and ultimately celebrate the way in which we see, in which we perceive things. This becomes a valuable exchange, a window between two worlds aEUR" an inner one and an outer one. Painting, like and life itself, is a journey. I visualize what I want to achieve yet without the knowledge of how I am going to reach my destination. My satisfaction results not from my successful arrival, but from the discoveries and inventions I encounter en route. My journey begins with feeling, then thought. Shape and color follow with the harmony between texture and gesture being my obsession. As I symbolically gather the pieces of the puzzle, my main interest, my subject is the light, the subtle equilibrium between light and shadow. The complex interaction between memories and the idea of memory is my theme. What is interesting is what is timeless, neither ...
