Artists Describing Their Art:
Jamshed Aziz - I am texturing the `Herf `(words) of holy book (Ouran) which has all solutions for humanity. Calligraphy in Islam therefore is not just a matter of script it is considered a mystic process of Self discovery, exploring the true geometry of the sprit. I am an artist of modern approach and my art work is embedded in the rich tradition of holy craft. The letters and words are not indistinct, though at places due to the principals color and tone and emphasis, they more from readable to elusive finally letters turn into an image textured by an inner rhythm. ...
Bernhard Luettmer - The project is to create the image with a short composition as I wanted at times I took in here. Timing and movements of the camera or the machinery are important resources. Photography is listen to the world as we hear a beloved piece of music. For example: I see a tree just in vegetation, the wind gentle caresses the new leaves, the light shines and you hear all this on the skin. Now take a picture with the knowledge that this concentration and on the negative is something of the feeling....
Linda Arthurs - I believe that my art should bring smiles to people's faces. When I was young I was highly political and everything I did had to have a message. During my life, my son Dennis was killed at 16 years old and my whole world changed. The pain was unbelieveable. I would not have made it except for the love that my son Conor gave me and gives me to this day. I decided that I only wanted to create beauty. I like to bring joy and colour into the world. I have travelled all over the world with my camera, and now I am a grandmother of two beautiful boys and am involved with people with developmental disabiliites helping them to become a part of their community and I do this through art. It is the most wonderful job I have had. ...
Tyrone Neuland - My paintings follow very much in the long established tradition of the Expressionists, using intensity of color and gestural brushstrokes to portray the intensity of feeling and emotion. While also attempting to find a balance between art and today's technology, I am integrating digital imagery into my pieces, using them as a tool to enhance subject matter. These paintings/drawings are developed from personal and emotional feelings that are sparked by the day-to-day experiences of a father, husband, employee, son and general spectator of the modern world. They are not formed as judgement statements but constructed out of a reactionary consciousness to the particular subject matter. The plan is to portray that secret level of honesty that is often misinterpreted as cynicism, by taking a specific person, place or thing and turning it into a thought provoking generality in which the viewer can use their own lives to draw a conclusion....
Limor Golan Nesher - Artist statement : "Art, is part of the creation. It reveals the issues of the soul and makes them visible. My artistic vision is to create out of spirituality, knowing and seeing. While I turn my imagination loose, I wander between Earth and other worlds. I seek expression through colors stories and music. I ask to fill the hearts with colors, joy and pleasure. I am a dreamer who believes . I follow my dreams to become all that I can .. Limor Golan Nesher ...
Kaiser Kamal - I consider my self experimental- conceptual artist .Where meaning is not absolute but suggestive. I am constantly drawing and planning .Sometimes the drawings are left in the sketchbook and other times they develop into more in-depth ideas and detailed images. I raise them in me. I may go to sleep with an idea or may wake up in the morning with a new composition. My subject matter is about people's daily experience , human and nature. My influences are first and foremost everything I see, feel and experience. In my work I try to create multiple layers .I felt that a combination of multiple layers gives deeper meanings to a painting. The process is an internal one, inspired by personal experiences and imagination. Throughout my career I have worked in many different media: drawing, painting, photography ,sculpture Mural and large scale scroll painting , Video. My latest body of work combines processes. and experience in deferent technique. I have use mixed media -like acrylic, tea dust, permanent marker,3d paint, Black gesso etc. Instead of explaining a certain piece of work - I wanted it to be ~ hopefully it can speak for itself and whatever it says to the viewer - it...
Sylvia Volpi - PHILOSOPHY: To be an artist is to be creative, autonomous, conscious, bold... It is to dare and allow yourself the delirium, reach the imaginary, the fantasy, the pleasure, the beauty ... To wish for the real and to wish for the impossible. It's to open wide, through your work, desires, fights and sorrows in a disclosure. The creative process is the product of the hand , the mind, the imagination and of the work, which is motivated by the search for a conquer: THE CONSTRUCTION OF YOUR OWN SELF. ...

Joanna A. Rytel - Few words about me My journey through the world of art began in Warsaw, Poland in 1965. As a 7 year old I attended an art class with my best friend Marysia. The subject matter might not have been the most ambitious, but the passion for expressing myself through various forms of art remains. Since that first art class I have dipped my fingers in many art forms like oil painting, mixed media, ceramic, mosaic, and photography. I love them all. To me, the most important thing about art is not the form, but the feeling. The feeling of being, of living. 20 years ago I moved to the United States with my daughter Dorota. Soon after arriving here I got involved in the Chicago art scene. In 1991 Gosia Garbalska and I established a non for profit organization called Art Moves International, which was devoted to artist exchange between Eastern Europe and the United States. Later on I represented Polish artists as the curator of Gallery 58, and helped organize many exhibits and art events such as Around the Coyote. After a long period of playing the role of art curator, I decided to focus on my own development ...
