JEAN JACQUES PORRET www.jjporret.com jj@jjporret.com

“Born in Switzerland, in 1941, to a prominent family of art and antique collectors, I started to sculpt wood at a very young age. I was drawn to and learned the technique of bronze and lost wax casting “because it is the most demanding material which is responsive and sweet to the touch.” My work is figurative but is not about the figure. I consider myself an expressionist as I am more interested in communicating an abstract feeling or idea than an actual image.”

TORHILD FRØYDIS EID artportable.com/artist/torhildfroydis-eid/ Putte3012@icloud.com

Torhild Frøydis Eid was born in 1961 in Kristiansand and currently lives in Son, Norway. She is a passionate painter who loves experimenting with colors, textures and techniques.

In 2020, Eid attended two online courses and an art class with a well-known Norwegian artist painter.

She always seeks to make high-quality artworks and to improve her skills, especially in mixed media techniques. Sources of inspiration are nature, the sea, the sky, the light, poetry and music.

In her paintings, Eid seeks to transfer her inner sensations to the canvas. While the music is playing, she surrenders and lets the brush intuitively play over the canvas. The result is often unique and unexpected! She wants her painting to awake and to remind the observer of all the beauty in life - and she wants to give the observer a moment of joy and to breathe!

Torhild Frøydis has had eight group exhibitions and received recognition internationally. Her work was recently published in Spotlight Magazine, Issue 21 (Circle Foundation) and Current Masters 5 book by WWAB. World Wide Art MAGAZINE V

SETH ALIFO

About this work African masks in general play a great cultural and traditional role in the history of the world. Their remarkable and historical accounts have baffled many and the masks are not playthings or decorations. The African mask served as a vessel for communicating with various spirit mediums for religious and traditional purposes.

SETH ALIFO

http://Artscad.com@Seth_Alifo Blackscentury@yahoo.com Sethalifo9@gmail.com About this work In many African communities, the music, bodies, and ability of xylophonists are filtered through a cultural ideology of ability that hijacks social conceptions as biological deviance. This reveals a spiritual model, which together with the mystical aspects of musicianship in the African culture, leads to a compound form of subordination for musicians and hearers. Against this cultural notion, xylophonists compose and perform as an act of victory, contestation, and catharsis that recasts their lives as a lived reality and reframes the true locations of their beliefs. Most people believe the players exchange their physical senses while they play, but it’s that magic moment of internal joy that cannot be explained but experienced. With this piece, Seth Alifo communicates the expression of joy of an African Xylophonist through his personally developed style of painting.

SETH ALIFO

http://Artscad.com@Seth_Alifo Blackscentury@yahoo.com Sethalifo9@gmail.com About this work Like the wind only carries those who spread their wings. And the destination is never near until taken the first stride. Just as the tide only sails those who hold on to the mast’s strings. We set sail on this voyage watching the waves while setting worries free. Set sail and find an island that’s stress-free. Keep rolling, like sailing, rowing the science voyage. Discovering a new discovery, then much happens: a new mission, a new crescent, new moon on a new turn is found, a night to be invented eclipses it furthermore.

WENDY COHEN

https://www.wendycohen.net.au wendycoh@bigpond.net.au Wendy Cohen is a Sydney-based artist who has attained a BFA as well as MFA Degrees. Her art practice focuses on the relationship of color, shape, line, and form with realistic components that are communicated in a painterly language. By integrating shapes into a cohesive body of colors and forms in conjunction with collage elements, flowing ideas are arbitrarily manifested that bring attention to the brushstrokes, mark-making, and materiality on the surface of each painting. However, the primary focus of her practice is to transform the static space of each painting with synchronized contrasting colors highlighting its chemistry and resonance.

PAUL KENENS

www.paulkenens.be paul.kenens1@telenet.be

“Color has always been close. As a specialized offset printer/color mixer, reproducer of antique ceramic tile panels and a painter, there has always been curiosity and the urge to create. Driven and searching for more than the display of an image. Based on an idea and improvising photo sessions, I look for surprising images that appeal to me for some reason. I edit or combine elements that show me a personal direction. I add and leave out. Sometimes the image itself finds its way.

Searching for the most penetrating expressiveness of the image, I paint in oil, building layer after layer, and wet in wet, patient and detailed. Sometimes unambiguous, often alienating, contradictory or with a touch of surrealism. The structure of fabrics and the naturalness of skin are a recurring challenge. The collaboration with a female model, a muse, leads to a period from which realistic romantic paintings arise.�

MAURO MARTIN www.mauromartin.it mauromrtn@alice.it

Mauro Martin was born in Pinerolo, Piedmont, Italy. After graduating from art school, he studied Architecture at the University of Turin. Throughout his studies, he also attended the studio of a famous Surrealist painter from Turin, Raffaele Ponte Corvo, as well as developing a keen interest and involvement with the Venetian artistic circles. Between 1975-1980 his work was based on a Structuralist reinterpretation of 15th-century art. By blending this first experience with a neo-metaphysical conception of art, he stepped into “Magic Realism�. Since 1995, along with figurative works, Mauro has also been making informal or abstract paintings, and has been using photography since 2006.

Mauro Martin started his artistic career in 1977 with an exhibition at the San Vidal Gallery in Venice; over the years his work has gone from strength to strength and is deeply appreciated all over Italy, Europe and USA.

Robert (Bob) Perriam, was a field geologist, for forty years, working in the exploration industry in remote areas of Western Australia. “I carried a camera and photographed the landscapes which I visited. Now retired, I use a small motor-home to make photographic trips to remote and scenic areas.

My preference and inspiration is for pristine wilderness landscapes, trees and wildflowers untouched by the hand of man.

ROBERT PERRIAM

Robert Perriam @ Artavita bob.perriam@bigpond.com I do not follow any specific artistic style, or seek to imitate the work of any artist. I seek only to depict in a natural way, the often-harsh beauty of the landscapes, vegetation, and lighting of Australia, in particular the landscapes of the inland deserts.

In my photographic practice, I work entirely with ambient outdoor light. I do not use flash because it produces garish colors, I do not use high dynamic range because of its un-natural contrasts, and I dislike oversaturated colours. In using ambient light, as far as possible I choose camera angles relative to the sun to give dramatic lighting effects, however, I usually have to take scenes at the time of day and in the weather in which I find them, so not every image has dramatic lighting.

I have now extended my practice to “Hangable Wall Sculpture.” These are hangable works prepared using curly bush timbers collected from long-dead fallen logs during my years as a field geologist, heat sterilized and mounted on carved timber slabs.”

LIVIEN RÓZEN

www.livienrozen.com/en art@livienrozen.com “I have always been fascinated by forms and colors, but in the past, I was not aware of the harmony in the background. From 1989 my activities were focused on the fashion industry, this was followed by interior design. After fifteen years, I desired something new, unknown, so not only did I give up my enterprise, I left everything behind.

This was the beginning of a rough path, as I was on a mission of spiritual development and search for reality.

After a long time, I realized that the difficult and never-ending path of self-exploration entailed many changes. So I gave up searching and stopped. To my great surprise, it was at this point that everything I had been searching for up to that time revealed itself to me.

In the harmony that connects colors and forms, I recognized myself, and by now it has become clear to me that I only need to let reality manifest itself through me. I have been painting since then. I have always strived for perfection, not realizing that manifestation true to the given moment and to the person cannot be anything else than perfect.”

“Perhaps you would like me to tell you a fairy tale with a happy end, to draw you a false sun on the cloudy skies of everyday life?

I would rob you of reality then!

I would rob you of truth then!

I would rob you of art then!”

LOUISE VENNING www.louisevenning.com louisevenning71@gmail.com

Louise Venning is a Cambridge, UK based awardwinning artist with an MA from the Royal College of Art and an OSCAR as part of the VFX team for Ridley Scott’s ‘Gladiator’. Louise concentrates her artistic flair on experimenting with resin, metal leaf and acrylics. Her paintings take on a visual rhythm of colour and texture. They have a sculptural and almost 3D effect to them.

The ‘Colour’ series and ‘Patina’ series come alive with sublime depth of colour and tactile texture. Each one an abstract depiction of natural phenomena.

Seascapes, storms and sunsets. Experimenting with layering techniques she creates a depth and sense of movement, designed to pull you into the painting.

The sculptural texture means it changes with the light. The audience observes something new every time they look at it.

Louise sells and exhibits at art fairs, galleries and creates bespoke private commissions.

LARRY WOLF

www.abrushwiththelaw.com abrushwiththelaw@aol.com Larry Wolf was born in Los Angeles in 1950 where he lives today. Self-taught, Larry’s work reflects his unique ability to combine his passion for law with his love for artistic expression through bold textures and vibrant colors. Dedicating over 40 years to building his legal skills, Larry explores his experiences as a practicing defense attorney through an introspection that is expressed in his series of original paintings entitled: “A Brush with the Law”.

Larry’s unique use of raw canvas allows its bare essence to create an interplay of primitive energy and sophisticated emotions. Each piece expresses the artist’s struggle (and joy) as he travels and navigates through a systematic world. Larry communicates this struggle to search for new alternatives and solutions to problems both in art and in the courtroom. This series expresses his drive to always look at things in a new way. Art has become an outlet that has taken Larry Wolf on a journey that he shares with us through these works that are as intriguing to the mind as they are a delight to the eye.
