Through the creation of assemblage and collage, the parameters of context are wide open; I create fantasy worlds that incorporate references to Dada and Surrealism, historical content, and through juxtaposition of contrasting elements, prompt the viewer the question relationships to scale, location, and relativity.

As I work with a variety of media, I am quite aware that while the media utilized is interesting, the imagery that I create is the message. My art is about the commonality of humanity.

In my creative journey, I felt the need to create a thick surface in my artworks, something material that people can feel and touch.
Featured Artist Roldan West
I create art because inside, I am filled with the need to create. My thoughts and the creative force inside me are the windows to my soul which is, in essence, the focus of my life.

Everybody has a story. Every thing has a story. Whether we are looking at a person, or a structure, or a part of the natural world, what we see is not all there is. There is always more going on. That’s what interests me.

Since I started making my Fobots® (Found Object Robots) in 2008, I consider myself the luckiest person ever. I get to make a living doing my two favorite things—creating art and hunting for treasure at flea markets. How cool is that?

Each piece has a story that unfolds through symbols, color and texture.

My interest is in both the metaphor of abstract painting, the idea beyond the thing and the narrative of figurative painting. I wish to give the viewer a bit of a nudge and let them make their own interpretations and conclusions.
Featured Artist Amy Guion Clay
In life and art, I long for the horizon. There is an invisible tether that pulls me toward the unknown, and this is reflected in the artwork that I do. Even in my purely abstract paintings, it’s always about a mythical journey of discovery. I always want to know what is beyond.

I believe that the photographic process is a material essence for self-expression, like canvas or marble; it`s just one of the easiest ways to arrange the visual chaos around me, articulate the hidden harmony within us and share my feelings with others.
Featured Artist Alessandra Ricci
With my work, I attempt to capture significant moments in time, locations, expressions, bodies in motion, feelings and human nature. My art also reflects natural elements that surround our everyday lives.

What inspired me to draw was never a person; it was the feeling of a lost connection between people.
Featured Artist Marilyn Sholin
It seemed to me a natural progression to turn glasses of wine, cocktails, cups of coffee and much more into fun paintings. My ultimate goal in choosing both color and subject matter is to bring the viewer joy and perhaps remind them of a special memory.
Featured Artist Marc Scheff
In the past, my work drew on the struggles I know we all face. Now, as I create the work for my new show, my focus is on themes of healing and strength—the powerful combination of fear and courage that ties itself inextricably to the human experience.
