Artists Describing Their Art:

Niina Niskanen - Often my art is a reflection of my state of mind. I like to fill the surface with delicate patterns and textures. The colors to be rich and deep but there also needs to be emotion, movement, something that catches the eye. Things that speak to my are probably different that the things that speak to the viewer because we are all too different and I donA't want to reveal too much. Art is all about experience and for me as an artist, it is also about personal growth, the journey. ...

Stasia Fisher - Art is a color in my life. With art I can leave the world without leaving the room. Through color and form Im in perpetual connection with places and beings that I love. This is my driving force to create the art that is uniquely my visual expression. About my self as artist I would say that Art which I create is threefold skillful meditation. My art recluse the mind of viewers to one object of contemplation- my composition is zen simple only one subject on the canvas at the time. Secondly it locks the glance of viewers to one point of focus - my canvas has the center where all colors and shapes descend to. Lastly my art leads viewers to goal of meditation- awakening. The burst of colors, the decisive shapes and bold form create personal and strong feeling in viewers. From there questions emerge, and the circle of perpetual communication between inner and outer world starts all over yet new again. From me, the artist, to canvas, from canvas to viewers - the circle ripples across colors and forms, meditative, void of words, yet perpetually communicating. ...

Valda Fitzpatrick - I always wanted to learn how to paint, so I started by taking private art lessons. Shortly after, my first piece sold. After selling more pieces, my husband said, if you can sell these art pieces, why not go to the Ohio State University and study art. He figured if I can sell my first pieces, just think, how more effectively my future art could be. I decided to take his advise and signed up at the Ohio State University in Marion Ohio. This was the beginning of an exciting venture for me. In the meantime I was offered by the department to exhibit my work, to teach Adult Education Classes, to students of varying skill-levels in painting and drawing. 1976-1980. During that time, since1971, made art related speeches and given presentations. I graduated from Ohio State University. Bachelor of fine arts, painting and drawing, 1978 Bachelor Of Art Education 1980, Masters Of Arts, Supervision and Education Administration. After 9 years of teaching public schools, I continued my education at the Columbus College Of Art And Design , where I also learned the art of paper making. Currently I am a full time artist working from my studio, which ...

George Grant - In my works I try to mold invisible ideas into visible forms. Merging of the invisible and visible in surreal themes and objects, or in coded geometrical shapes in my art is the way I establish the purpose of breaking through the conventional perception of material life, into the dream world of human subconscious, where the infinite universes are hiding. So the objects and beings in my works are often appearing as symbols pointing to that which can hardly be talked about by words, allowing the viewer to get the hunch on deeper non-verbal level. Apart of surrealismabstractionism and abstract expressionism, my second fav is a realistic classic painting, where I endeavor to follow the principles and techniques of Renaissance artists. ...

Mario Ortiz Martinez - Mario Ortiz M. is a mexican artist living in Chihuahua, Mexico. My way of working is free, wild, spontaneous, many times a fruit of desperation and anxiety. It starts in a imperative moment of the day, no idea in my mind, in most cases is an irrational desire of painting and nothing more. Probably I have images that are stored in my imagination, or messages, or traces in my ADN of people of past eras. The paintings made in this way can be considered as Historic Landscapes of the mind, because they are reproductions of the influential ideas that are formed by unknow people who was consumed by suffering, doubts an desperation or characters in the top of the glory, erotic extasis, serenty, indiference or joy. The style of the paintings can best be described as wild impressionism. Sometimes they are more figurative, at other times fully abstract. Colour is very important for me the alchemy of colour. This defines for me the atmosphere of a painting. Usually I work in only a layer, tryng to capture the fire of a first unthinked idea. I let myself be guided automatically by the forms and colours that develop during the process ...

Karen Jacobs - I have always been a nurturer. After raising a family and caring for my disabled mother for eight years, I now nurture using inks. My creative process is akin to preparing a delicious pot of stew. Thrown into the pot are assorted ingredients, vivid colors and unique mediums. I donaEURtmt use a recipe, so my pot of stew never turns out the same That organized chaos is what fuels my art. Each piece I create is unique and nourishes the artistic soul. I studied under watercolor artists Barbara Marlin-Coole and Susan Adams in Petaluma, California. After moving to Arizona in 2008, I studied with Alice Van Overstraeten from Sun Lakes. My art is displayed in New Mexico at Galleria Tamaya at the Hyatt Regency, Yucca Art Gallery in Old Town Albuquerque and Weems Art Gallery. I now live in Placitas, New Mexico where I have a small art studio. Retired from the workforce, I am able to devote more time to art. My recent passion is ink on paper in a loose, free-style form. My scenes of the New Mexico area are noteworthy for their vivid colors and imaginative portrayals of the landscape. ...
