Artists Describing Their Art:

Alireza Vataniman - My name is Alireza Vatan-Iman and I was born on August 29, 1975 in Shiraz, which is one of Iran's largest cities. At a young age, I began to practice art and design; however, by the age of fifteen I began to take serious lessons. After a while I received my legal art and design license and I started to draw and paint professionally; however, my curious mind went on in search of the meaning of life because I was not satisfied by reality and all the things that are already known to us humans. I learned that behind our real world there lives an unknown universe. Not all of us are aware of this world because our senses are very limited and there are many feelings in life that we are unaware of because we have not yet discovered them. As individuals, we view stimuli or feel the things that we only desire to see or feel. Accordingly, I came to realize that there is a window to our undiscovered senses, especially our visual senses. In fact, at times the pupil of our eye zooms onto these certain stimuli that later gets engraved in our mind and...

Vaidotas Bakutis - For me, painting was a natural state, something I did not really choose but which came automatically because, that was what I needed. You can't learn it; it's not a craft you need a diploma for. I believe art is a subconscious expression of self - is the vehicle for bringing the subconscious to a conscious parallel. Painting is always for me about exploring the depths of my own imagination. Painting is irresistible if you can see clearly, that it's paint what you are looking to and at the same time your eye shows you, as through a window, another world. My work is a result of a fragmented view of the world, which gives it a surreal quality -here and beyond - present and past. ...

Gabriela Cristu - Darla Fisher Odjig - 7th. World Aboriginal Image Maker Vision: the belief that symbology will be a huge part of the art. That all may project a uniqueness of their Indianess through this. I promote the essence of my culture through the educating of Cultural diversity & visions through symbols. The sharing through symbology/pictorial imaging precipitates a phenomenon of altruism and healing. Guidance through mind, heart, body and spirit is essential to envisioning a holistic sense of self. In reference to Creative Extraction, expression toward the enhancing of emotion and identification of authentic values and feelings enable release and validation. Building of inner strength and outer relationships are important to communicating who we are. Reflecting on shadow imaging and of internal elements will allow for visioning and creative connectedness. Our Community includes the participating of connecting with the public through the art and its symbolic representation regarding the intergenerational affect as illustrated by symbolic historical referencing and recording. The developing of inner creativity through outer expression allows a sense of identity and connecting of 2 worlds within. Integrating Aboriginal artistic mastery with Western/European mastery as a recognized fine artistry brings a unified and elegant fusion of a unique vision of true Canadian Fine ...

Susan Baquie - My art work varies in style as it is the result of experience and observation, as well as formal studies. From a type of surrealism to expressionism, sometimes more realistic and at others abstract in conception, many of my pictures reveal a psychological awareness, at times a depiction of trauma, and at others, the joys of colour, pattern, design and the flow of paint or ink across canvas or paper. Painting is like life itself, a constant mirroring of energy, a dynamic pouring of the soul onto two dimensions. It can be caring or selfish, it can be political, humanistic and even cruel. It is a way of life and as with poets and writers, often a happy work and often hard. It is wonderful to be able to show work on the Internet in this way. ...

Alex Jobbagy - "Being both a formally and a self educated artist, I have always been interested in social/political issues as the major forces that shape our life, and their effect on the average person's struggle to survive and rise. I had my first solo exhibition at the age of 13. Inspired by the surrealist movement and Salvador Dali, my artistic style of expression is surrealism and symbolism. I am continuously experimenting with different mediums but my favourite remains oil on canvas. As an artist, I feel that it is my duty to reveal the contrast between the harmonious relationship of the individual with nature, as opposed, to the man-made, often artificial, connections developed in the modern society. While my artworks speak for themselves, I want to present these issues from a different, unique angle, hoping to stop viewers and encourage them to think." Visit my blog at:

Sharon Ebert - I paint because I love it! Born and raised in Chicago I now live in Fiji, in the heart of the South Pacific which has given me a kind of peace and tranquility that I discovered living on the ocean, along with elevating my sense of humor. I paint what I see and feel, always experimenting with new impressions that I put on canvas. I like to call my work "Gentle Surreal Escapes". I hope my paintings are enjoyed as much as I enjoy creating them....
