In her current work Florida and the sea have a big influence on Patricia's impressionistic style and interpretations of every scenes. The artist says that she was influenced mostly by the impressionists. "I love working with heavy paint. It gets me into the painting. I would love to always paint from real life, but it's not always possible. I am a photographer and love black and white photography the best. I like to paint from black and while photographs they free me to use whatever colors I want, I can use my imagination." Her favorite painters are Wayne Thiebaud, Richard Diebenkorn, and David Hockney. Her paintings are most often interpretations of locales she regularly visits in Martha's Vinyard, Provence and South Florida.
Statement Earlier artistic expressions of realism in wildlife, residential architecture and portraits of people and animals, with great detail, were rendered in pencil, pen and ink, and color pencils. Art that seems to capture an unstructured moment of every day life excites me. It inspires me to seek subject matter that looks un-staged, unplanned and spontaneous for my drawings and paintings. I create my art with these ideas in mind, often working from my original photographs. Using a wide variety of subjects allows me to experiment with the reflection of light and shadow on different forms, textures and colors. Although my drawings and oil paintings have a foundation in realism, I strive to further define my style by intensifying contrast, line, shape and color. I also choose unusual angles form which to depict my subjects to accentuate the originality of my work. As I continue to explore multiple themes and ideas for my art, I look forward to the challenge of finding new perspectives that will uncover additional relationships between the physical world, like and art. My growth as an artist relies on these discoveries and their effect on my techniques as a painter. To Be Updated Shortly. Please Check Back, Thank you!

Statement: My art is a personal response to the visual world around me. As a painter I am concerned with the creation of reality. I make no distinction. I make art with paint, camera, digital software interchangeably or in combination. I'm not interested in technique or creating photo-like duplications of persons, objects or places but rather try to convey my responses to them. Sometimes the final image is abstract, sometimes representational. When I'm making a painting, I am also crafting a unique "object." The crafter "object" is the completed canvas or panel on which a surface is developed with carefully mixed and placed paint colors. This is the world of brush strokes, palette knife trowellings, carvings and scrapings, opaque layers and transparencies. I take great pleasure in the physical aspect of painting and push for a painting surface that is satisfying and work with the imagery. Early Career: Washington DC ~ Painter

Statement: My Rock paintings are a dialog between me seeking creative freedom (how I wan to represent nature) and the perception of time as a natural force. People's attraction to rocks seems to transcend explanation. A trip to a rocky beach means the addition to one's rock collection. Their appeal can be in ther size, weight, color, shape, texture, or as a tool or building material. Spiritually, some believe that rocks contain truths and under the right conditions there truths can be set free, providing personal enlightenment. Natural forces shape not only rocks but us too. And like stones on a beach, we harbor this energy until one day when we may choose to release their truths. Artistically, I arrange my rock compositions in a plunging perspective, without a vanishing point, to create a shallow space. I then try to push or create as much depth in the pictorial space as possible. It's taking specific spatial limitation and pulling the most depth out of it. Adding to this spatial exploration is the use of different materials simultaneously such as charcoal, color pencil, and oil paint. Visually, I find it an interesting codification; a mixing of materials like a mixing of words. My Rock paintings are an attempt to visually explore this process.

Davis Morton's oil paintings capture the subtle psychological and emotional dimensions of his subjects. Morton's pieces, though representational and related to photo-realism, also take cues from impressionism as well as surrealism; these facets are apparent in his treatment of light, the way in which he builds his subject matter, and the otherworldly, dreamlike quality his work manifests. Davis Morton is a self-taught artist. He has traveled extensively since 1975, visiting museums in Europe, Asia, South America, and Africa.ÊHe has been painting full-time since 1992.

Statement My paintings are three stories:
Another is the story of paint: how colors change each other by proximity, without touching or blending; how shapes impact their environment; how the holler of a fast, emotional stroke contrasts with the low pop of a little dot. I paint in encaustic, with my panel flat on the bench, scraping and heating and carving and spinning it until it's old. The last is yours. Work Description Executed in a variety of media ranging from simple graphite to encaustic wax, Christine Sajecki's pieces can be characterized by a strong emphasis on the human figure. She is inspired by moments of beauty and oddity, where she feels the poetry of being human is found. Her current paintings are created via an under-painting in oil pastel and graphite followed by encaustic wax (melted, pigmented beeswax). Sajecki's art has been shown extensively in Georgia, Connecticut, Washington State, and Maryland, and is in a number of private collections. Sajecki is currently a resident artist at the Creative Alliance, Baltimore City's lively arts center at the Patterson Theater.

BIBLIOGRAPHY "Hartigan's outlook seen in proteges' exhibit", by Glenn McNatt, Baltimore Sun, November 29, 2004
Since 1995, Megan Strott has been juried into many regional and national exhibitions, winning a purchase award in a North Carolina exhibition in 2004. She has had solo and group exhibitions in Baltimore City. Strott was featured as a studio artist on Artworks This Week, on Maryland Public Television in 2002. Megan Smith Strott paints charming and personal pictures of rustic landscapes and aging buildings and interiors. As Smith Strott recalls, "From my earliest childhood recollections, I have been drawn to all things that have earned character through the passage of time. The weather-worn landscapes and wrinkled faces, antique bottles and figurines, rehab-ready buildings and even room interiors that I paint all have a story to tell. My work becomes a narrative with the viewer bringing his or herÊown experiences into the creation of that narrative." Smith Strott's images are mainly scenes from Ireland, an area that she travels to periodically: "Ireland epitomizes my love of all things with a fascinating past. I can think of no greater objective to my art than to visually record the people and places and objects that exemplify the history and character of the country, to capture the beauty in ordinary faces and places. Through my paintings, I hope to bring the viewer the same sense of nostalgia and intimacy I feel from the subjects I paint."

On the artist menu please click on Haitian Art to see the full on-line catalogue of these wonderful paintings. These exhibiting artists, working mainly in the medium of oil on panel, invoke a strong sense of national identity and spirituality in their colorful figurative work. Their unique paintings often depict the Haitian countryside and portray the beliefs, practices and rituals of the complex and often misunderstood Voodoo religion. The proceeds from sales of Haitian paintings go to the artists in Haiti. Local Baltimore writer, Madison Smartt Bell, travels to Haiti regularly to visit the artists and to arrange their representation at the Antreasian Gallery. |
