 Venice For Joe Abbrescia, painting is his life ...his love and pleasure of communication and understanding between all people.

 The Longboard Doreen Abegg's artist statement: My collection of recent work is a series of colorful impressionistic oil paintings of California landscapes. Many of these paintings were painted on location and directly from nature. The joy I experience in creating a painting comes from the wealth of subject matter I have been exposed to growing up in Southern California. Dazzling sunlight, often tempered by ocean mist, illuminates our landscapes with colors like no other place in the world. It's very exciting for me to capture and express these colors and moods on canvas.

 Autumn Breeze While searching for a way to regain my health after years of near-constant migraine pain, I discovered that the more time I spent with art, the fewer headaches I had. Realizing the positive changes that art was having on my life, I soon decided to become a full time working artist. That decision was the starting point to many synchronicities that occurred, all leading me to take Joseph Campbell's advice and 'follow my bliss' into the art world. With a degree in Mathematics and a career in computer programming, becoming an artist was not something I had ever considered. But as time goes by, I see that working abstractly, continually searching for the simplest form and finding truth are all fundamental elements in both Mathematics and Art. But Art will truly steal your heart.

Sophie Iakov Afanassiev Artist Statement: When I started painting, my search quickly led me to the fine art of portraiture. A human face is perhaps the ultimate subject of painting throughout the entire history of art. There is an incredible beauty in every person and the goal of an artist is to capture it. Whenever I have a chance to see the works of Old Masters I try and learn from them. My goal is to create a work of art which will stand a test of time and will last in your family for many generations.

 Park Station I like to work with traditional and non traditional techniques, combined with various media, painting and printmaking. Experimentation with concepts, color and contrasting materials is part of my process. My art is eclectic and deals with events that influence emotions in my life and art. For me the act of painting becomes cathartic. The works change in the process of creating them. My paintings and prints feature abstractions of realistic and imaginary subjects which hopefully spark the imagination and interest of the viewer.

 Mirror of existence Yisa Akinbolaji's artist statement: My passion for drawing and painting at the age of six began with using any pigment available to express myself. I used my mother's lipstick, charcoal from her firewood even colored eyebrow pencils to draw and paint characters from stories I heard from elders during the storytelling at moonlight. As I became a professional artist, my art concept started to evolve from extended sources. My art is a reflection of my imagination and encounters. The content of my art reflects the dream I create, and from that dream I paint. My art is the window through which I visualize and share new techniques that also reveal my thoughts about social issues. My ŒEkoyo style of painting unveils the beauty hidden beneath the images above, the images that also bear their own unique exquisiteness.
