I create artistic interpretations of life. Each moment of time is different. The lighting, the people the moment of time itself. I capture life using an instant film camera then I interpret its spirit as an artist. I paint on top of the actual photograph ( 2.5 inches x 5 inches ) creating a one of a kind art piece. The photo is now art and there is no other copy of the actual photo. When the art is complete it represents that one of a kind moment in time. I call my technique: LIQUID EMULSION. The eye of a photographer. The heart of an artist.
My art is available both as original and in printed versions. 713-569-4204
Currently I am generating abstract, expressionist paintings using primarily acrylics as my tool of experimentation. Toss a Pop Art influence into the mix to round out what impacts my style. Mixed media is an increasing influence with many works incorporating plaster, copper wire, organic elements – sand, salt, rock, glass as well as print media. A few even include a favourite old shirt to worn to wear again. My art is diverse in subject and is extremely colorful and textural. It should provoke more than one sense in you. 832-248-8486 eugenejohnhughes.com
My artwork derives from an overwhelming need to visually translate what I have seen or read, experienced or witnessed over a complex lifetime to date. Emotion. Religion. Family. Friends. Past, present, estranged or already gone. Today I see with a clean internal eye. A soul. I see purple in nearly everything. I understand. For the first time, all is finally out of myself and into a tangible visual, hold it in my hand form. Using color and texture, paint and canvas, and other elements, I can clearly execute and therefore share my experience. This is integral to my work. The introvert turned inside out. Revelation. This is the journey I was meant to take and it has just begun. My artwork allows you to participate with me along the way.
My art is all about repurposing. I take damaged vinyl records, smash them with a high heel, and create beautiful mosaics, depicting everything from basic shapes to complex figures and scenes. Each piece is literally one-of-a-kind, I hope you love them as much as I do! http://www.erintade.com 409-728-3088
My work is typical, typical of life. We form ideas. We have goals in mind. We visualize the final results and work towards our visions. Along the way, we encounter unexpected twists and turns. So we adjust, we learn, and move forward. Each painting is like this for me. Doors open and close during the process, affecting my final product a great deal. Every painting has what I once perceived to be challenges to my original vision. These moments are tough to push through. However, I’ve learned to accept them as doors to unforeseen possibilities. The challenge is to remain open, accepting them as doors of opportunity to paint my way through. As I work through, visions beyond my original thoughts emerge. Magical moments, leading me through the misty veil and into wonderful encounters of understanding and clarity. My paintings show me the way, I’m along for the ride, reflective of life in many ways. I work in Acrylics and in oils, depending on the effect I’m in search of.

Maggie’s Meltdown produces jewelry in both precious and alternative metals. The designs come straight out of Maggie’s head and she does her best to reproduce what she sees. Maggie had studied with & been influenced by Thomas Mann, Richard Salley, Andy Cooperman and Rosy Revolver. The work runs the gamete from modern minimalist to industrial gypsy and all points in between. http://maggiesmeltdown.blogspot.com 713-906-6880
Maggie’s Meltdown is the metal work business I’ve started after “”retiring”” from a full time job in pursuit of the mythical freedom of self-employment. After years of wearing jewelry and getting excited about someone else’s work, I was given the gift of opportunity by my partner. That opportunity was a two day class with New Orleans metal artist, Thomas Mann – someone whose work I admired greatly. That did it. A metal smith was born.
I love pulling metal pieces out of the hat and putting them together to bring an idea to life and even more, I love seeing my work on someone who is as excited about it as I.
Ellington paints in acrylic, with much water and sometimes sand. Her painting is in an impressionistic style with techniques that feel more like carving. “It has been said that painting is half-way between sculpting and drawing,” she says. “It is a wonderful experience.”
My art reflects my interest in science and nature. Also, light and darkness. I’m a digital artist, creating abstracts and realism- expressionist works. Many abstracts start life as fractals, which is my way to balance my logical side with my creative nature. At times, I feel very split between art and tech geek.
