FINE ART ABSTRACTS by UNIQUE ART

Artist Statements for Unique Art

My goal is to inspire imagination through artwork. A painting may portray many visions.

When studying "The Light in the Woods", viewers may envision a person lost in a dark, overgrown forest at night. The lost catches a glimpse of a faraway light and stumbles to reach the light (safety). A second vision of the same painting may be a soul reaching for God at the end of life. A third view may envision a light at the end of a dark tunnel, which could further be interpreted as relief at the end of hardship.

"The Melting Pot" illustrates earth's races intermingling, creating a melting pot of diversity. The same painting may be interpreted as peace, where racial differences are shed, prejudices cast away, and serenity and equality reign among earth's peoples.

Using imagination, complex themes can be expressed in simple forms. "Crazy", a salad of geometric shapes, portrays the confusion of insanity. "Transition" illustrates cautious change, in either consciousness, or the physical world. "911" represents an aerial view of New York City, the site of tragedy indicated in red (blood). Change and world events are visualized as one studies a red circle amidst squares.

I use colors boldly, and at times with subtlety. Paintings vary from black and white to magentas, reds, and yellows. Colors are carefully selected to portray the meaning and message of the artwork. Metallic lusters are at times used in paintings, i.e. "Out of Africa", "The Sun", "The Moon" to exemplify the subject, or to simply add decorative appeal.

Some of my paintings are realistic portrayals; the Cats series, "Out of Africa", and " Celebration". Although I'm committed to abstracts, I have sought to express these themes while preserving the beauty of simplicity.

In many of my paintings, I seek to move from severely abstract, to recognizable subjects, and back again to the abstract. Imagination and exploration of themes are the basis my work.
