Artists Describing Their Art:

Helena Wierzbicki - I have always enjoyed art from an early age. This love of Art has stayed with me and developed and grown, and now, I cannot imagine wanting to do anything else. Making art, for me, is an innate response to the inner and outer worlds, and a balancing act between the intuitive and the considered. I am interested in exploring my natural abilities and enthusiasm for my commitment to do an art within my innermost thoughts and emotions. Shades of colors and lines turning images of beings into landscapes and symbols. My art is an evolving process, I take and represent only elements which are the essence of the imaginary being. I rely on my desires for beauty, poetics and seduction. "Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures." Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887) ...

Aisha Haider - Welcome to my gallery. I was born in Lancashire in England. I am a self taught artist and have been painting ever since I can remember. I paint in acrylics because of its versatility. Painting has always been a strong part of my life and it is who I am. Painting is an unquechable addiction that I get immense pleasure out of. I paint in an impressionistic style using a little bit of inspiration that comes from nature whilst adding my own elements too. My painting are mostly vibrant and modern. My favourite subjects are umbrellas, reflections and trees. I am very fortunate to have sold over 500 paintings in the Uk and 5 other countries. I hope you enjoy looking at my work and find something to your taste. aEURoeAs music is the poetry of sound, so is painting the poetry of sightaEUR James McNeil Whistler...

Denise Messenger - Over the years, Denise has created works of art in acrylics by experimenting between expressionism and impressionism. She has used fauve and transparent painting techniques. She captures the spiritual and majestic nature of horses in which people connect to her work. There are no boundaries she is not willing to try in using brilliant light and color. Her paint strokes can be bold, fluid and targeted depending on the landscape. She continues to expand her depth in painting and believes creating art is an ongoing skill. There are times when I initially start a new canvas and truly dont know what the end result is going to be. It can feel liberating. There is a degree of suspense in painting that most artists agree upon. With Denise, the initial rough draft of a painting changes over the course of time and the raw emotion she is experiencing translates onto canvas. This is where it is reflected as a gift in the unrivaled spirits in horses. The paintings come alive with emotion which collectors enjoy. ...

Slobodan Paunovic - Smita Biswas - I am an entrepreneur turned artist. A self taught artist. I strongly feel that art doesnt require any institutional degree or training. We just need to profoundly connect with our innermost self. Art for me is a truly metaphysical activity in this materialistic world. Most of my art work touches the subject of Ancient Egyptians and African tribalism Maasai tribe in particular. I am extremely fascinated with my subjects which motivates me to paint passionately. My objective is to promote the culture of Maasai tribe and mysteries of ancient Egypt globally through my paint. ...

Denise Dalzell - Every image sparks a story. Each of us has a story to tell. What do we have in common What unites us, what binds us together Part abstract, part figurative, part illustration, my current work is about understanding the body language, relationships and stories that develop amongst people in social settings. My paintings develop from images that I collect during my travels. How do we, as people of differing backgrounds, cultures, and experiences interact with each other within the immediacy of a crowd How do we respond to one another How do we share the common experience of being in a mass of people who have come together to protest, to celebrate, to commemorate I work in Acrylic and Colored Pencil to fashion illustrations of these evolving stories. The excitement of being in a crowd united, of being in a smaller, more intimate group intrigues me. Are we different in these different settings If we are, why All of these settings, and the people involved in these relationships tell stories of our adventures. And my adventure is developing into so much more to be what I imagined it would be. ...
