Featured Artist Diane Jorstad
My preferred subject matter tends towards something with light, form and color. An apple is called red but if you look at it closely you will see a variety of colors and values.
Featured Artist Elaine Florimonte
When I study the work of other painters, I see them as either colorists or tonalists. I am a colorist. I use color to create a “sense” in my paintings—awake-ness, devotion, excitement, tranquility.
Featured Artist Sandra Pearce
I still have much to learn from the great masters, as I do continue to study with the best. I don’t think I shall ever stop learning, reaching and growing–always hungry for more and never satisfied.
Featured Artist Suzanne Yurdin
Be it mountainous, oceanic or atmospheric, I don’t try to convey a specific place and often times don’t title my work for that reason. Instead, I find it more enriching as an artist to connect with my viewer by triggering an emotion, a memory or even a sense of déjà vu.
Featured Artist Nancy Lane
I want viewers to sense in my paintings the enveloping presence of the landscape—its rolling hills, its creatures, the water, the wind and the sunlight. I want them to feel a part of the paintings, remembering their own experiences with the outdoors.
Featured Artist Ellen Jean Diederich
I use my whole body to paint. In watercolor, to avoid fussiness (which will show up), I use a one-inch flat for almost all of my painting. It’s in my effort to twist and turn the brush so you can’t tell what brush I used that has affected my style the most.
Featured Artist Richard Rosebery
My lyricism of line and often-intense colour are intended to accentuate the otherness and beauty of the Australian bush. I paint and draw on canvas, board or paper using oils, acrylics, pastels, ink and charcoal.
Featured Artist Eduardo Vilchez
Art and painting give the soul it’s wings to be free and soar.
Featured Artist Renee St. Peter
Learning the medium has been a life lesson in letting things happen as they will–the magic of watercolor is not what it does in the first five minutes, but what occurs as the paint has time to react with other colors around it to create new shades and tones.
