Surrealism Art For Sale

Artists Describing Their Art:

Arthur Bell - I admire the eccentric artists of the 19th century, like Albert Pinkham Ryder and William Blake as well as many who were untrained and painted primitively. I'm drawn to the way light was beautifully expressed in paintings by Romantics like Eugene Delacroix and Goya. Wordplay interests me and I can see humor in life along with the absurd. I can't help but include some of that in my paintings. Since having a stroke, I moved to Laguna Honda Hospital and have been telling friends this address sounds like a car dealership (which I hope would not be held against me by Saab specialists) . Like Simon on the Monty Python BBC series, "I like to draw pitchers". I've reread Jules Verne again, more recently, "The Sphinx of the Ice Fields: A Sequel to Edgar Allan Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym" after which I made a painting in 1977. ...

Victor Hagea - The artist has expressed his artistic creed during a conversation with the critic Nicoletta Isar as follows: "The focus of my artistic creation is the human being in connection with his activities , actions and desires which determine and form his fate - the human who creates his . If I had to characterize my style, I should call it with indefinite boundaries between reality and dream. So I would like to invite the spectator to be witness to the interaction of the states where the reality escapes into the dream and the dream will turn to some aspects of the reality. In contrast with other representatives of the various art movements, I do not doubt the traditional values of art, but I try to find a new way and to use them in an updated context. The assertion of Delacroix "The painting must be a feast for the eye" is for me still up to date and significant and it opens up for me new perspectives to implement my artistic ideas. " ...

David Eric Gordon - I try to remain open to all images or visual combinations that inspire me. One consistent element is that my paintings usually involve a process of building up layers through numerous revisions. I often paint over canvases several times, leaving portions of the paintings underneath partly visible. Covering an existing painting rather than starting from a blank canvas can lead to more unusual or interesting compositions by forcing me to make certain choices in responding to the material. The built up layers of paint create a rich surface that becomes an active element, revealing the process of experimentation and revision....

Tanya Miller - When creating works of art it is important to me that they are meaningful, beautiful, positive and emotional. Beautiful - because there is too much ugliness in today's world. Meaningful - because without meaning life would be empty and worthless. Positive - because positive art is my escape from the hardship of reality. Emotional because when we feel we live. Art is my past, my present and my future . It is my life....

Gregor Ziolkowski - Professor of Arts and Member of Accademia Internazionale "Greci-Marino", Accademia Del Verbano di Lettere, Arti, Scienze (Vinzaglio / Italy). Born 1950 in Wroclaw / Poland. 1964-1969 attended High School for Fine Arts in Wroclaw. 1969-1972 studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw. The majority of the artworks are surrealistic which, besides their romantic character, also deal with actual problems. Impressed by intense non trite colours and mystical light, they point on different topics in self specific way and leave enough space for the spectator for individual and subjective interpretations. Hereby he gets the possibilty to project own meanings to the works to receive them more personally which intensifies their expressiveness. Some of his paintings are privately owned in the USA, Sweden, France, Germany, Holland and Poland.
