Artists Describing Their Art:

Brenda Boles - My art is about feeding the soul and uplifting the spirit, and I do it with luscious colors and images. Whether in your home or office, your surroundings can make a big difference in how you feel. Art can take you "somewhere" and even "bring you home."...

Greg Gierlowski - Light has always played important role in my creations. Light comming through translucent artwork interests me and fascinates me the most. Therefore I turned into glass and started to experiment with translucent creations. My admiration for Art Nouveau artists that had created a lot of beautiful everyday-use objects of art resulted in creation of applied arts' objects such as art-lamps. When one has backlight at ones disposal, there's whole new field of artistic expresion - not only on one front surface of glass panel but on two, or even four or more, when two or three layers of glass can be used as a kind of sandwich that builds deeper into artwork for 3D effects. That's what I'm working on now and what's seems to attract international viewers & art-critics more and more now-a-days, to the point of of achieving latest awards and honours ( mainly from Italy....

Evert Schut - GOOGLE EARTH ART: going tot next level. Anyone with a computer and internet connection can use Google Earth to fly anywhere on earth and see what's down there with a birds-eye, or maybe even gods-eye view. Amazing new perspectives are the result! Google Earth is not just a high tech map or geographical mapping device. It is a powerful new idea, a way of thinking which will have it's impact on the world. While the internet is a major force in connecting people, Google Earth is connecting us to our planet. A growing number of people are learning to look at our planet in a different way. We are finally beginning to understand how this planet is alive, how this living system works but also the damage we're doing to it. I'm not just painting a new kind of landscape, I'm rethinking the meaning of landscape art. This is a story in paint about a place and its significance for the way the planet works and what that means to me. I like to think of it as a deeper level to Google Earth....... My weblog

Stuart Ellis - The inspiration for my work is all around us, the light, mood and atmosphere of the landscape. Music is also another great inspirer, from Bach to Hendrix, all creating a mood that is expressed through my work. A reflection in water, a shaft of light, how I am feeling at a particular moment are translated through colour and movement onto the canvas. In some of my work there is a serene calm in others a threatening storm, these are drawn from what I have seen or emotions I have experienced, never knowing which direction the work will take until pencil connects with paper or brush hits the canvas. ...

David Rocky Aguirre - ************** To me, Art seems to be a universal language. It can be used to portray something beautiful and uplifting, or to portray a tragedy to motivate and move people to act. To motivate them to help in some way as in Picasso's "Guernica 1937". I have a wide range in creative interests, from most forms of painting- oil to watercolor and on to print forms, sculpture, photography, film and computer animation. Contact me for any creative projects you may have....

Sandi Carpenter - Due to my endless curiosity and wide range of interests, my work has evolved over the years. Just as a musician would change instruments to perfect the mood and rhythm created, I enjoy moving from one medium to another, be it French dyes on silk, watercolor or acrylic. I am always hopeful that the magic I feel in creating these images will be felt by the viewer with similar intensity. I believe it is only then that art really lives....

Sandi Carpenter - Ana Maria Hidalgo - These paintings I have submitted belong to the sequence of paintings I have called "Sensorial Hearts". This sequence is being shown at the present time in Chile. I am showing 13 large paintings done in acrylic on canvas. The subject has to do with the world of human feelings, symbolized by the shape of a heart, which is represented figuratively only once in while on the work of art. Human feelings as subject matter constitute an excellent excuse for developing innumerable contents that finally conform the creative act. Color plays an important role in the making of the work of art. Its construction begins with deep ochre, from whom several figures emerge, concluding strokes of pure and lively color, that finish the work of art, ending in the creation of an complete body. The creation of primogenial signs that relate to ancestral human expression and human origin is one of the objectives of this work. This paintings also have to do with the creation of space and vital cosmos where the observer can recreate himself looking for shapes that originate upon his own subjectivity. On the other side, the exhibition also includes the presentation of some poems written by the ...

Armand Cabrera - My goal as an artist is to convey the joy and awe I feel when witnessing the beauty of the world we inhabit. I have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember. I paint everyday because it is what I love to do. Painting is the most fulfilling work I've ever found. I am dedicated to strive, at all times, to be the best artist I can be and to paint for as long as I am capable. Alla prima painting presents the challenge to record my immediate experience of the land. The subject can be as simple as a willow branch touching a stream or as grand as a sunset in the Rocky Mountains. Painting from life is extremely rewarding to me as an artist. I find it the most honest form of painting. Standing with an easel before the land---that's when all the years of practice come into play--- the discipline to record the fleeting moment on canvas before it disappears forever. Always remember that the land supports us---that we are part of it--- connected to the earth in ways we can't fully understand. We must be ever diligent...

Laurie Ihlenfield - As an artist I find fascination in even the most ordinary things. I enjoy studying the complexity that light can lend to a grouping of objects. Dappled light shining through the back of leaves, or illuminating a group of reflective objects, or creating shadows in the bark of a tree creates complex patterns. The addition of light evokes mood. I am interested in portraying mood through close up views of objects and scenes. I sometimes am interested in inferring deeper meaning. At other times, I prefer to let the image speak for itself. It is my hope the viewer will find in my painting the feeling the original image stirred in me. ...

Anindya Roy - Here you can see a brief about my painting , my bio- data, and some recent paintings.A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO MY RECENT PAINTINGS During the period of training my works were mostly the reflectionof the city life, the aspiration and dreams of the urban middle class living in a molt-cultural and multi-lingual society. Those days I crated the works like ' back to the city', 'nagorik' etc., by mixed media. To develop the concept I have been traveling historical, and culturally significant places and try to conceptualize the togetherness of living and non-living objects and a sense of mystery. Things and particular colour encompassed me, thus my creative mind and feelings is blend. Through I have social, ritual relation with my surroundings, I would like to search there hidden relations of mine in my works. It is known there a relation among the living and non- living beings in nature. I saw a rhythm with the costume, ornaments, happiness, sorrow and habits of the rural people, I is wonderful to me when I inhale those things then, I express my feelings of love through my visual art work. Some times ' composition ' starts from my dream, which leads to ...

Mima Stajkovic - The world I live in today is filled with the most amazing secrets. Personal secrets that cannot be told, those little thoughts that shape your personality and intimacy. Every secret have reason, every reason have shape, influence and interaction. My goal is to recognize each of them with the respect that they deserve. Bringing them to light in full color, making them touchable and visible, I get better understanding of individuals, their apprehension and shame, their desire and potential. While working on a painting over weeks, sometimes months, I found that acrylic on canvas give me the best opportunity to quickly catch my thoughts. Starting with real world and images I continue to explore with symbols and colors emphasizing my impression. The finished work may not resemble the original idea but I always get to know something new during this enjoyable process. In the latest series of paintings I am playing with women's emotions, her fears and wishes developing relations with other people. When people see my work, I'd like them to feel my thoughts and get chance to agree or not with me, but in any way to think about motives that every woman has developing emotional ...

Mrinal Dey - ABOUT MY WORK From my childhood, I and our family live in a rent house, even in which had a single room and we are six family members, parents and my four brothers. But those times I have no obligation to feel that circumstances, because I had my own restriction and don't feel how long space I need. However, I left it midway when I realized that I wanted to be an artist. Once upon a time I thought I would be a'Revolutionary'. But I am found myself helpless. My middle-class identity taught me escapism. This was a saddening prospect. As a painter I thought I would give vent to my sadness and depict my state of mind. I am still trying to fathom as how this could happen. But now when I recall my past and recall those days I feel how many problems we had. And how could my parents face it every moment. What ever, now I have my own language to express myself. The underlying sadness of the funny feelings is now discernible to me. I believe in my sensibilities. I know where I stand as an artist and as an individual. My...

Dariya Afanaseva - All my works are dedicated to the themes of relationship and sensation translated on a language of painting. For example, relationship between people. Relationships human about him/her self and to outward things. And some of my works are about memories and thoughts. And also it is interesting for me to reproduce an eluding moment, an impression in a matter of seconds, fragments of life. Just because everything depends on nuance. Three main styles I work in are abstractionism, expressionism and a bit of pop-art. But these styles are not just as they are, it`s always a combination of them. Some of my Abstract works represent things that aren't visual, such an emotion, mood, feeling, sound and so on. These works are very association. My figurative abstractions are simplifications of reality, where detail is eliminated from recognisable objects leaving only the essence or some degree of recognizable form. Some works are expressive. I just let my intuition guide me. Not to thinking, not to be doubt of anything. It is about trusting the process and setting free the instincts. And also I like decorativeness and beauty of coloring. My choice of medium are acrylic and mixed media ...
