ARTIST’S STATEMENT I believe in art for everyone and not just for the critic. An image which does not require a description to be understood. An image which will stay with you, which has many layers, that you keep coming back to. I believe in a pursuit of excellence, in the traditional craft of painting. […]

Inspired by artists Naum Gabo, Alexander Calder, and Raider Nelson and mathematician/model builder Theodore Olivier, I continue in 2017 to use straight lines to produce three dimensional curves. One present focus is the suspension of multiple shapes at once. Website 17 Riverview Place Hastings on Hudson, NY
My work can be described as surrealistic photomontage..It is a combination of photographic parts from several different photographs put together seamlessly to make a new image. It represents dreamlike scenes populated with odd juxtapositions and fantastical worlds. I print my own work on archival papers. http://davidrabin.deviantart.com 47 Lincoln […]
My mixed media work explores and creates connections between objects and images, focusing on actual and imagined links between place, past and present. Using traditional and innovative techniques in my painting, I juxtapose oils and wax on wood or canvas surfaces with found remnants. These artifacts of personal histories are essential to my artistic process, and […]

Living and working as an architect in Hastings on Hudson, surrounded by the natural beauty of the area, as well as many intense thinkers and artists, I attempt to both explore and find peace. A house is a physical shelter, a place to live and to dream. It has a constructed meaning and it is […]
My artwork might be described as mostly abstract and organic in nature, however I tend not to confine it to a particular definition or style as my enjoyment comes from experiencing and exploring the unlimited possibilities that allow me to express creativity. I continue to be influenced by certain Asian philosophies and artists as well […]

I am extremely enthusiastic about contemporary art and design. I enjoy exploring new ideas, techniques and technologies. I like to go with the flow and be in the moment […]
My interest in movement and background in dance led me to explore various methods of expressing kinetic energy in still photographs. Recently I’ve used a moving camera and long shutter speeds to create images using various light sources and subjects. I strive to create work that conveys vitality, joy and transcendence. After dancing with ballet […]
I love to paint. I am drawn irresistibly to the landscape, to its forms and colors and particularly its light, which varies so dramatically throughout the day and throughout the seasons. Beauty is always an important consideration. I cannot paint a subject unless I see something beautiful in it, something that makes me grateful to […]
Mark-making is, for me, a meditative state. I love manipulating materials—both conventional and unorthodox. No matter whether I am working in paint or pencil, with thread or with found objects, my goal is to create moments of deep feeling—often inspired by the passing of time and my own childhood memories—through an economy of shapes and […]
My new inkjet prints on paper combine ideas from two past sets of work. Packing an array of ovals into a rectangle goes back to paintings I did in the mid-90s, but here I’ve updated the idea with digital manipulations developed in a very different recent series. In the earlier work, the hard-edged ovals remained […]
SATURDAY only My paintings and multi-media collage are born of curiosity about the world traveled, coupled with the world I can create. Besides responding to architecture, I am also responding to my relationship to my near daily commute into Grand Central Terminal. New York’s architecture provokes and induces thought; emotions are aroused by looming buildings, […]
Janet Sikirica Fiber Art I am primarily a fiber artist although I have worked with many different forms of textile design – from silk painting to industrial wool. I have a passion with wool, which began at an early age with knitting. In 2011, I continued to pursue various ways to create wearable art […]
The Communist era during which I grew up squeezed an imprint on me, a method of perceiving and living in the surrounding world, which in turn defined a method of creating. Getting involved in the New York art scene in 1988 “opened a window” in my soul. My first solo show in New York was […]

It is only in the past four years that I have incorporated my artistic yearnings into my life as a mother, former teacher and translator, and recovering over-committer. Mosaic art has since become a very meditative journey. The manual breaking of glass, marble, rock, or found objects and then setting them piece by piece into […]
While I have been focused on my book, “The Migraine Book: A Memoir in Pictures” in recent years, this year I’ve chosen to feature another genre that I have worked in most of my life: abstraction. It fascinates me to try to create images that have no reference to the narrative world, letting go of exterior […]

Folded paper and mosaic are, at first glance, quite distinct media. Yet they both play with pattern and repetition, geometry and rhythm. Pieces come together to create a puzzle, often unexpectedly. Light and shadow interact to create a deeper, more complex image. My work in paper and mosaic is mathematical and meditative, feeding needs that […]

Though I’ve been a painter for many years, the last five years have taken me into the realm of weaving. These weaving s have taken many forms from sculptural installation to traditional objects to incorporation into painting. http://miadebethuneart.weebly.com Save Save SaveSave
My work explores dreams, memories and the passage of time using found images and thin transparent layers of acrylic paint. Distorted, altered and rewritten is how I prefer to approach the past; time always changes our perceptions of life. Collage has been a favorite medium of mine for forty years. Using fragments of images from […]
I believe in the power of art to transform a space, to create a moment, and most importantly, to evoke emotion, beauty, freedom and authenticity. I live for color, bold design, strong contrasts and texture. As a photographer I love to watch the light, seek out colors, imagine a scene in black and white, and […]

I spent many years as a health care provider and family therapist in Germany, and most recently I taught stone sculpting to visually impaired youth […]
These days I’m mostly working among three related currents. Square watercolor “tile” mosaic – which sometimes feel like scapes (land, sea, sky). I think of these as being “about” my appreciation and love of color and material (water color/pigment, paper, brushes, marks); they are also an attempt to address and involve negative space, with light […]
SUNDAY only I seek to create work that transcends its source to form a new reference to a visionary landscape. The power of the natural environment is a continuing source of inspiration.I create layered landscape images with multiple realities that progress from the real into abstraction and a fusion of the two. They are expanded […]
SATURDAY only My recent work is a series called Dialogues of Color, which looks at the relationships of colors and emotions. From an early age we develope color preferences, formed by personal experiences and cultural norms. We feel and react to color. Our color associations can sustain throughout our lives. I hope you visit my […]
My world is of earth and spirit. Nature is at once a deep source of inspiration, and a comforting healer. More than anything, the quality of light which radiates from and about the subject is what I am moved to capture. I try to express the essence – the spirit of a place, a person, […]
I paint in an unheated studio which at night takes on the atmosphere of a space capsule. I am alone and would like to have something outside myself draw the marks that open a portal. The important part is letting the mind submit and the body direct the marks being made inside each layer of […]
As a fine artist, Susan places color on paper, seeking calm, clarity and perspective. She has developed a distinct mosaic-style watercolor technique -pure color on paper.. This technique, as demonstrated in her most recent work, has evolved to create images of deceptively rich complexity. Creating images and impressions has been Susan’s occupation and obsession for […]
