Interview with Sinclair Webster

Making a picture for me is not about trying to construct a pleasing image but about trying to communicate the emotional I felt when I encountered what I have sometimes called charismatic moments, when I see people or animals or a landscape that feels charged. Memory is a necessary way to recover that, a filter to remove anything that is superfluous to expressing that emotion.

Artist Spotlight - Ira Hoffecker

I am interested in the amalgamation of abstraction and representation of plant inspired subjects within imagined habitats as liminal spaces. My paintings extend organic shapes within abstracted spaces and imagined landscapes that play with depth, lines, and layers. Organic material analysis and interpretation became part of my exploration process.

Artist Spotlight - Alexandra Jicol

Through my work, I have tried to create complete pictorial independence. After years of intense work, I strive to capture in my work my physical, carnal relationship with colors, forms and textures. A constant subject of interest returns to me like an obsession: the human condition and how to define the states of mind and attitudes through colors and simple forms.

Artist Spotlight - Mara Montagna

Currently my curiosity leads me to seek new paths and, in particular, I use a mixed technique of acrylic and collage with which I manage to create intense images with a rich variety of textures. I'm interested in the combinations I can obtain with the different designs and textures that fabrics mixed with acrylic colors and rhinestones offer me.

Artist Spotlight - Yi Zhu

“I express my subjective feelings and attitudes toward life on canvas, while sensing the inspection of my works from lives outside of the canvas. I create on the basis of species, life and space, elements of the focus of the society. It is creativity on the level of imagination to reconstruct the spiritual world. Through my works, I explore the complex feelings and desires behind life, which are infusing my works with deeper dimensions and touches.”

Artist Spotlight - Oenone Hammersley

Known for my imaginative and distinctive use of colour and light, I have progressed from painting wildlife on paper to larger more diverse images of nature in oil on canvas to fantastical depictions of water. I have perfected a method incorporating hand painting with multiple paint pouring. My mixed media technique embraces collage as a means to create texture. The water theme is further enhanced by a resin finish that produces an incredibly lustrous effect.

Interview with Britta Ortiz

Life is a gift, and every human being should appreciate life, other human beings, nature and all the creatures that live on earth. Only by this can we ensure the survival of humans here on earth, as life on earth can easily go on even without human intervention. Humans must be careful not to be arrogant and believe that they can control everything here on earth.
