Adriano F Manocchia - United States
January 28, 2010 at 1:16 AM
|
|
| Born in New York, Adriano Manocchia received his Bachelors degree from Pace University in New York City. After graduating, he spent twelve years as a photojournalist traveling the world to cover news events. In 1984, Adriano turned his attention to fine art, adopting the painting techniques of the Old Masters and quickly received the attention of critics worldwide. A number of awards and special projects marked his recognition in the traditional art field as a foremost contemporary artist. Adriano's work is in major private collections as well as prestigious galleries.
Through the years the technique and subject matter of his paintings have evolved. His earlier detail renditions of wildlife and angling scenes have given way to a more painterly style. Water with its sounds, colors, movements, had always awakened a deep response in him. Now it is the study of that water, always different, challenging, elusive, that inspires his creations. O! ne of the predominant responses to his paintings is that sense of peacefulness collectors feel while viewing them. The art collector appreciates the boldness of each brush stroke which, when joined by others, can capture the realism of the scene. Sunsets and sunrises have the more immediate impact for their dramatic effects, but peaceful scenes find their way in the hearts and minds of the viewers.
It is nostalgia, instead, which permeates Adriano's still life paintings. He is not just a painter, but a story-teller that uses a paint brush to inspire emotions. An old creel, a bamboo rod, a creased photo, are all elements of a story which each collector can interpret and shape in his or her own way. It is a trip down memory lane where highly detailed and vibrant objects become intrinsic elements of those recollections, only to fade away along the edges in the dark background, just like fuzzy details of an old memory. |

| Ian Ridpath grew up in Toronto Canada in a family of artists and artisans. He began charcoal and pen & ink sketching in his school years and then followed his father's coaching in turning to oils. Several years ago an older brother further encouraged him to delve deeper into oils and mentored him by example.
Because of his love for the Canadian 'Group of Seven' he has followed their style of impressionism and has produced several 'impressions-of-the-Group' as well as many of his own subjects. His love of the Canadian landscape has been a major influence in his choice of subject.
Locally, Ian has been invited on more than one occasion to take part in the 'Through the Eyes of an Artist' week held each August at the Mountsberg Conservation Area and loves capturing the area in oils.
He regularly displays at the Arts Milton (AM) Gallery and has a permanent display at Sweeties Cafe in downtown ! Milton.

Durand Seay - United States
January 27, 2010 at 4:08 AM
|
|
| Durand Seay's work shows influences from three movements of art, the Cubists, the Italian Futurists and Surrealists. Seay's cubist influence is found in the intuitive nature of Picasso. Like Boccioni, Seay's art explores a similar three dimensional expression, but as an architect doing his drawings on two dimensional surfaces. Italian Futurist, Boccioni pursued the exploration of movement as a relationship of the object to its surrounding space. Unlike his Cubist counter parts, Boccioni was expressing movement three dimensionally through sculpture. Two dimensional concepts became form. Finally, Seay's pursuit of symbolism, expressing narratives towards balance, spirituality, and human nature, within his surrealistic expressions is further understood through the likes of work by Dali.
Graduating from Auburn University in Architecture, he also attended University of Georgia to extend his skills in art and his understanding of painting.! His work has been exhibited in numerous juried exhibitions all over the southeast since 1978, and recently in 2009 "Imaginary Journeys", Trevisan Arte Internationale invitational exhibition, Ferarra, Italy. His history of awards precedes him with the following selected examples: 2008 First Place in Oil and Acrylic category, Hilton Head Art League National Juried Exhibition, Hilton Head, SC.
2008 Purchase Award, SouthWorks Juried Exhibition, Oconee Cultural Arts Foundation, Watkinsville, GA. 2003 Award of Excellence, Alabama Exhibition, Rosa Parks Museum, Montgomery, AL.
1990, 1989, 1986, 1985, 1984 Best of Show, Montgomery Museum's Montgomery Art Guild Exhibition, Montgomery, AL.

| A little about me...I was born in Digby, Nova Scotia but now I make New Brunswick my home. The natural beauty of each province is part of what inspires me and I love to take advantage of these amazing opportunities. I am mainly a self-taught artist but have taken workshops in both Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. My mediums of choice are acrylics and oils. Included in my work are landscapes, seascapes, stills, abstracts as well as modern and realism - most of which are created from photographs that I have taken.

| I received my formal training from the Alberta College of Art and Design earning a Bachelor of Design in 2001 while majoring in Visual Communications. Since graduation I have worked as a graphic designer for a variety of national and international corporations in Calgary, Alberta and in London, England.
It wasn't until I received serious whiplash injuries from a car accident in July 2008 that I was forced to slow down and re-evaluate my life purpose. I had always dreamed of working as a fine artist but for a variety of reasons; I continued to put these desires on hold. This potentially negative experience has renewed my love for painting while providing her with an optimistic, new sense of direction. I now work full-time as a professional artist out of my home studio.
My most recent work is a pure, unrestrained exploration of texture and colour that exploits every type of medium within my reach. To me, they represent ! the definition of mixed medium to its fullest. |

| I am a mixed media artist from Long Beach California. I use rusted sheet metal instead of canvas. I work with the rust in the metal incorporating the grinding of the metal for texture. I am a self taught artist raw and not so art educated. I recently have found my true love in creating at a later age. I am going forward with all the passion one can have for something they love. I am not worried about what I have to lose in the responses..I am more concerned with the positive I can bring people that my work comes from the heart. I am truly in love with the people that love art and appreciate it. I am truly inspired by the newness I feel when I pick up my metal and brush and create. The newness of something wonderful and special. Something special that someone will recieve to inspire them to love. Art brings inspiration and love. |

| My name is Allison Brandi, and I am a New York City based artist. People often tell me that I have my own style. I strive to portray my own visions through my pieces, and to create works that are beautiful yet content-driven. I prefer to work with India ink, watercolor, beeswax, and paints, however I am also comfortable creating pieces using glass, video art, printmaking, charcoal, markers, kante crayons, colored pencils, markers, and various other media. I use my fingers for many pieces, a brush, or a palette knife. I almost never work with one single media, unless it is on a painting. My ink pieces involve beeswax as a deterrent, and often include watercolor. My charcoals are created with ink or marker worked into the piece. I utilize various media to form each cohesive piece.
I believe that art is not just a regurgitation of what we see before us, nor is it a means of displaying just how offbeat and 'original' o! ne can make his or herself. To me, art is a means of portraying a feeling or concern. Artists can and have influenced society for centuries, and I hope to join in this endeavor. |

| Both the panels and the paint are light fast as I use high pigment oil paints and hand made poplar gesso panels. This ensures that the image, colour and intensity last for at least two hundred years after completion.
The longevity of the works plays a key element as my emotional response to events merge together in a visible landscape which can only ever mark the transitional, but the element of perpetuity marks an existence and an exact moment.
My blog 'One year one hundred works' is an opportunity to upload private sketchbook works and progress on paintings which people do not normally see. |
