Artists Describing Their Art:

Theodore Kennett Raj - About Theodore As a visual artist I follow my own muse. My visual narrative paintings and pen drawings reflect fanciful subjects and situations depicted with explosions of colour and textures. Born in Maduria India, I have a very exuberant colour sense which reflects the origins of my country of birth. In 1974 I studied design and art at Shillito design school in Sydney, NSW. I have spent most of my working life in the fashion industry . Previously I have exhibited my work at eca bar in Darlinghurst, Sydney, NSW which atrracted enthusiastic commentry from the fusion of creative locals of the area. In 2007 I was invited to join a group exhibition at Tap gallery in Sydney which was received with great enthusiasm. I relocated to to the northen rivers region of NSW.

I have collected into this site my meta-phisical paintings with a sure thematic order, not temporal since to times the " topics ", during my artistic production, were overlapped. Good vision...

Vladimir Kezerashvili - I can't paint without a contact with a life object or picture of some sort. Hours of silent observation open a path to the object's beauty from its intrinsic nature. The longer I look and more layers of paint I add "the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically the more real" (Lucian Freud). I have no interest in a search of newness to justify my work; neither have I sought to establish myself via certain painting style or concept. I feel human when I paint, perhaps, because the painting is reminiscent of love and I hope this love is reciprocal....

Michael Griesgraber - In my recent "X Squared" Series I combine vibrant colors with the ideas espoused by the Color Field "school" artists whose paintings are characterized primarily by large fields of flat, solid color spread across the canvas creating areas of unbroken surface and a flat picture plane. The Color Field movement placed less emphasis on gesture, brushstrokes and action in favor of an overall consistency of form and process. In this respect the colors are freed from objective context and become the subject itself. I also find, generally speaking, musical notes and colors have a common attribute. Musical notes are as individual as colors. Both have a primitive charm that flows through the brain to inundate our emotions. Colors, like musical notes, stimulate certain moods. Combinations of colors like music can evoke joy, excitement, fear, anger - any number of emotions - while the used of geometry in my paintings provides balance and stability just as music uses structure to create melody and harmony. It should be obvious that the X Squared Series paintings are more akin to jazz than classical music in their construction and composition. As the Hans Hofmann wrote, "The world comes to us through the mystic realm of color. ...

Sanjay Verma - My Present Work displaying " Colours of life" in acrylic colours on canvas exemplifies thematic endeavours showing nuances of daily life in urban metropolitan cities highlighting hustle and bustle, chaos, the dynamic actions of different characters involved etc. My colors show deep contact and relevance to the soil of Rajasthan and hence possess that intimacy. I have displayed different facets of my creative instincts for the rickshaw pullers by narrating childhood memories, struggle for daily existence through turmoil and hardships, dignity of labor, hope for a better tomorrow etc. in my own style. My obsession with urbanization and mechanized as well as fast life in metropolitan cities like Bombay, Calcutta, New Delhi etc. has been clearly depicted in my work marked by interrelation and useful interplays of human sentiments highlighting the dignity of labour. My thematic concept of daily metropolitan fast life highlighting dynamism of pace and loss of personal life and ties, sentimentalism showing the various emotions like joy, excitement, anxiety, etc. is outstanding. Main work being in the "Characteristic face of rikshaw puller earning his daily bread and butter through sentimental display of emotional feelings in his mind it demonstrates artistic imagery showing tonal harmony and equibillirium of color...

Mr Wynne has exhibited in Thailand, the United States, Spain, Argentina, Kuwait, Korea, Ihdia, and other Countries. Sometimes perhaps I say too much about my self but maybe it helps people understand what motivates my work. For your information I've lived in 8 different countries and have been around the world 5 times. I speak a few different languages, some very well; others not so well. By the way I am not a workaholic as I don't consider what I do work. I enjoy life too much. I forgot to say I am also a weight lifter as lifting weights is my Zen. When I am troubled the concentration it takes to lift makes me calm. I guess my page will probably be a little different from what people expect. Sorry I have not been uploading new work as ...

Vasily Zolottsev - There is only one law in art which carries objective character and comes from the very nature, conditional character and illusiveness of art! It is an indispensable condition of creation of an artistic image! It is necessary to judge an artwork by intensity and importance of the image and force of its emotional influence! Style, manner and technique don't have any importance and they are equivalent! The good picture of a primitive artist can be much more valuable in the art sense than a 'competent' picture of a realist and on the contrary! If there is an image, there is a work of art, if there isn't, it's no use crying for the moon! And it is not important which art means it has been reached by! Everyone to his 'own' taste! ...

Dana Zivanovits - Dana Zivanovits was born in 1958 in Columbus, Ohio and received his art training from the Columbus College of Art and Design (1978 to 1982). After art school, he went abroad for a year and studied the art of the old masters in London, Paris, Madrid, Rome and Venice. Returning to his studio in Columbus to develop these influences into a new body of work, he then traveled to Mexico and studied the sculpture and painting of that country for an extended period. The unique and vivid colors of Palenque and Vera Cruz intensified his palette. After a period in Ohio, he then moved to Venice Beach, California where the brilliant light of the region reinforced his desire to capture effects of sunlight and atmosphere. Returning to Ohio in 1995, he has continued to paint themes deriving inspiration form sources such as world mythology, classic and B-grade cinema, literature and dreams. However his primary inspiration is direct observation from nature, versus an approach based in art theories or cultural critique. Dana has been widely represented by galleries and exhibition projects including Julie Rico and Mega Boom in Los Angeles, the Venice Art Detour, Around the Coyote Festival in Chicago ...

Free love and true expression. These teachings created the perfect foundation for living and exploring his artistic abilities open-heartedly. Johnny had always been interested in the arts as an onlooker, but it wasn't until the year 2000 that he became active in the arts by working as both a freelance photographer and as an assistant to an internationally-recognized artist who, at one point, suggested that Johnny try painting. By picking up the paintbrush and putting it to paper he reconnected to what he had experienced as an artistic child - a deep passion and joy in putting paint to papercanvas. Painting thus became a hobby for Johnny which has since grown into a fulfilling career. Combining Healer with Painter In 2007 - Johnny's gifts of being a medium, channel and healer opened up and he consciously began co-creating with the highest vibrations of Source Energies, interpreting his experience through different modalities such as painting, music, voice and writing.
