William Bernard Brooks - The photographer William Bernard Brooks creates images of shamanic interludes. Meditations in the forests and near hidden lakes in the Rocky Mountains in Montana provide an opportunity to align with energies that are still communicating with us.

Ron Zilinski - I have been drawing designs for thirty years. I first took an interest in spirograph but couldn't get used to the cog wheels. I doodled at first with 8.5 inch by 11 inch paper. Everyone wanted me to make them a design. I drew designs on a bigger scale and now draw on 22" by 28" poster paper. My drawings will take a minimum of 80 hours to complete. Some design drawings take me over 100 hours to complete. This type of artwork leaves no room for errors. Imagine drawing for 60 hours and make a mistake, it will show up in the drawing. There is no way to draw these designs fast and an incredible amount of determination is needed to complete a drawing. You must really enjoy it or it won't work out. Please look at my two NEW YORK MEMORIAL drawings on my website. They were drawn in memory of September 11/01. I use pens in my drawings. It is called Pen Art. I am currently looking for an agent who will handle my artwork, please contact artist. All my Originals are available for sale with the rights to them. The Originals can ...
Jorge Leanza - We human beings never perceive any object twice with the same value, strengths or reflections, thereby my art can be changed or can change the viewer's perspective reflection. No one person will ever experience one of my images twice in the same way. Paintings are extensions of our livings experiences and should have the ability to change as often as ourselves. "They seem to assume my own vibrations, and they take a part of me along with them" Leanza ...
Nathalie Van - What's there to tell? I am a 28 year old Modern Abstract Style Artist. My favorite surfaces to paint on are gallery stretched canvas and canvas panels. I paint every day and hone my art skills. I am mostly self-taught (with the exception of some high school teaching plus watching my grandmother paint), and my education doesn't really have anything to do with art. I am an electrical engineer by degree, which gave me lots of patience, endurance, and the knowledge on how to build an autonomous robot! I've also done some creative freelance writing and earned some money that way. Now I get to do the fun stuff - paint all the time! My favorite things to paint right now are Asian-inspired art, martini's, abstract landscapes and other abstractions. I paint something new almost every day....
Monica Malbeck - I was born and raised in Romania, attending art school there. I graduated in 1974 from a highly successful art pilot program at age 18. Where I was offered exposure to all facets of art from visual communications to industrial design. This was followed by a successful career in fashion design with clients throughout Europe, U.S., and Japan. In 1990 I moved to the United States, and in 1996 I was introduced to digital media falling in love instantly with its versatility. I have been exploring digital design since then, trying to mix digital color and the illusions of texture and shape to capture fleeting, momentary thoughts and my feelings. My style varies depending on the subject being captured, as I always try to let the subject dictate the style rather than try to impose a repetitive style format. I have retired to Hawaii very early from a career as a fashion consultant, and decided to focus on art. My very first submission of my artwork to an international competition in Italy, was chosen among the finalists. I am a self-taught digital artist, and I like to explore a broad range of subjects. In my gallery you will...
Jocelynn Grabowski - From childhood, we are molded to be who we are today. Because of this, I look at things differently than you do. I may notice the wood on the living room couch while you observe the color patterns on it first. When creating sculptural installations, I combine wood, metal, paint, and lights to make the viewer think and see in different ways. The work titled Black Light Dream, challenges our perspective. When the viewer stands in one location, what they observe will be different from another part of the room. Working on a large-scale with different materials and enclosed in a darkend space, I create this optical illusion. I intend for the viewer to find different focal points, highlighting the patterns and sense of movement throughout the work....

Michela Curtis - Art is a language wherein harmonies are born and that language becomes a Song of Love and Light. Art is our divine self-expression. Art forms are lines, squares, circles, triangles, colors imbued with the artistaEURtms spiritual energy... A vision drawn out in a visual landscape of symbols, transcendent by the mere presence of passionate energy. Art is a portal into your own power. You can intellectualize art, record its history, its pedigrees, but its primal pulse, its language, its communication...that is another thing. Biographically speaking, I am the daughter of a painter, lived in France for some years and met Picasso during that time....
Khalil Dadah - My artwork is ment to reflect the trajedies of mankind . It's the safest way of expressing onself , in a world flooding with oppressors , fanatics and opportunists. I believe that most international crisis are created through the uncontrolled growth of population. I wonder why men of art and thought are not giving this dangerous phenomena more attention. ...
