Artists Describing Their Art:

Lina Golan - Lina Golan Statement Sounds, colors and shapes have accompanied my journey through life, since the dawn of my childhood. It was clear to me even then,that art would be a way of life for me. I have studied painting, sculpting and music with wonderful teachers ,who helped focus my attention on the fact, that art is predominantly about observing and listening. The essence of my creation is inspired by nature itself, not in the sense of "landscape paintings", but based on events and its mystical qualities: the contrasts, the rhythms, the never-ending transformations, the mystery, the enormous energies - all of which have affected my artistic microcosmos. Being a musician and a painter, I feel there is a wonderful interaction between music and painting where sound can be nourished by color, and a plastic piece can play. ...

Debbi Chan - I am going to do an updated artist's statement. But until I submit it you have a short temporary one. As an artist I an fullfilled and contend. But at the same time I seek more , absorb more, and enjoy more. Art fills and fullfills me..I am always being an artist. My eyes see art always. This is not a hobby that I partake of when time suits. Art feeds me. Art consoles me. And being prolific it also takes my time. And for this I am thankful that i listened to my inner self. I am thankful for a following that grows by the minute. I enjoy you enjoying my portfolio. I also have come to realize that the coined phrase "starving artist" is a reality for some of us. But if you take another quote, my own , you will see that starving and rich pertain to material $. because of you the viewers , and because art is my life and my passion I can truly say that I AM RICH.. RICH WITH NO MONEY... and I can also say with truth that I am happy. I chose the path that allowed this rich life. There will continue ...

Thinn Thinn - I like to draw people on the street . Especially I love to draw women and kids. I want to share story of people on the street and my country culture. I used to use different kinds of media. I mostly used watercolor and pen. ...

Amy Wetterlin - I strive to exalt the human spirit through capturing composition, structures (organic and non)and repeating patterns. The patterns and forms create an abstract while maintaining balance and movement of life force. Life either moves or is stagnant...it's up to you. Thanks for looking! Cheers Amy...

Federico Winqvist Estrada - If we define contrast as the opposition or juxtaposition of different forms, lines, or colors in a work of art to intensify each element's properties and produce a more dynamic expressiveness. Then this definition undoubtedly would apply to the work of Mexican born, Swedish resident Federico Winqvis Estrada. However this definition can be applied in a more extensive sense, including structures as smooth surface in opposition to rough or textures like matte finish opposed to glossy parties. Even in relation to the theme; flesh in contrast with spirituality. Or even more as shown in Federico`s latest works, the frequently despised insects and beetles in combination with the crown of creation; the human form. "I'm a great lover of vivid color and of well defined lines, I enjoy creating contrasts and then struggle to make them harmonize For example hard straight forms against soft rhythmical curves or dark shades against bright hues, often complementary colors". "My painting reflects largely my somewhat extreme nature. I am a very intense and passionate person just like the red-orange color scheme in my canvas, while at the same time I can suffer from melancholy and an awareness of life's briefness...

Loretta Nash - I love to create things. I got into being an artist because it allowed me to let my imagination flourish with out judgment. I like the encouragement and the satisfaction that I did something with my own hands. I received my Bachelors of Arts in Art in 1992. My themes of my works go everywhere. Everything inspires me. For example just recently a hand dryer blowing on my skin gave me an idea. I run with the ideas or I just let them die. The pencil/pen has always been my tools of choice because they were easy to sneak to paying jobs with the sketch book to do during downtime and breaks. The paint brush is just an extension on the pencil/ink. Since 1999, I upload design pieces onto various art production retail sites. (i.e. www.redbubble.com/lorgh, www.loretta-nash.fineartamerica.com, www.zazzle.com/lorettanash, www. artwanted.com/lorgh, www.flickr.com/lorgh, www.lorettanash.co.cc, etc.) Since October 2010, I created caricatures at local events and of private citizens. I have not stopped creating. ...

Paolo Avanzi - Paolo Avanzi is an emerging Italian artist. He is arrived to the visual arts, after several experiences in different area (such as psychology, music, creative writing, organization, computer graphics) which enable himself to achieve a multi-disciplinary approach to the artistic creativeness. His recent production is based on computer painting techniques applied to Pop Art. This approach determines a distortion of traditional perspective that influences not only the colors but also the forms and dimensions of the object. In such direction the artist intends to develop his research in order to revitalize the Pop Art by contributions of abstractist matrix. Paolo Avanzi in the last years participated to several solo and collective exhibitions and art fair both in Italy and abroad. His artworks are also exhibited in many international virtual galleries on web....

Jeanette Locher - "Her" story of art - by Jeanette Locher (also know as Locher-The Artist) My history as an artist began as soon as I could hold a crayon. I always was attracted to colors in nature and nature itself and tried to imitate Her in my drawings. Growing up in the middle class white suburbs of Detroit afforded me a better education and appreciation for the arts, as the arts were always in the schools. We had "art on a cart" at elementary level and I was always excited to see that cart rolling into my classroom for the hour a week, as this meant to me fun, instead of doing the regular math, writing and reading routine! Later on in junior high school, we had what was termed electives, we could choose between art, drafting, wood or metal or auto shop. I chose wood shop, drafting and art. Back then it was really odd to have females in either wood shop or drafting classes and I excelled at this as my father had taught me how to use tools way before most of the guys were taught by their dads. High school is when I really soared in art. I...

Stephen Fusco - Welcome, I am a full-time police artist, or forensic artist, for the Orange County Sheriff's Office in Orlando, Florida. I've actually been a police officer since March of 1980. My background as an investigator has been an important part of my success as a police artist but, my passion for art is the key ingrediant. I feel blessed that my artistic skills make a difference in peoples lives, as well as the contribution to sucessful prosecutions in major case investigations throughout Central Florida. I used to do most my police art in pencil, however now I use a Wacom pad and the computer to "airbrush" my work such as suspect composite drawings, age progression drawings, skull reconstructions, and post mortem drawings. There are numerous examples on this site that illustrate what computer art looks like. It is still done by hand except it's within the computer. I also do commercial art for the Sheriff, which I get to use my own creative freedom. I call it "artistic support." Artistic support comes in the form of illustrations, unit logos, t-shirt designs, memorial portraits, and police related paintings and renderings. When I do artistic support, I like ...
