About My work has an expressionist-symbolist style and I use mythologies from eastern and western civilizations. Syncretism is the combination or fusion of different beliefs, philosophies, mythologies, or religions, emphasizing an underlying unity that allows an inclusive approach to other faiths. Syncretism commonly has expressions in art and culture that can join together.

Kent United Kingdom
Mark Burrell markburrellartist@outlook.com markburrell-artist.com
About Mark Burrell was born in Newcastle, but now lives and works on the Kent coast. His distinctive style strives for an economy of means, the attempt is to do the most, with the least. He is highly sensitive in his use of materials. Substances are often used spectacularly. Mark seeks to make the ordinary, extraordinary. As he explains, “In order to understand the world around us, sometimes you need to focus on a small bit of it, you need to look very closely at what is close at hand and make it a representation for the whole”. In his work he acts as a go-between, finding, selecting and presenting objects for the consideration of the viewer. He combines painting with collage, print and found objects. So you would call it mixed media I suppose. Mark has work in several private collections

Curator Review Landing My Dreams Sensitive, enchanting and magical, this emotive piece with contrasting gray tones and flitting sparks of color, creates a sense of calm and connection. Artist Gomez-Beuth’s thoughtfully balanced and reflective portrayal of motion in this painting, presents us with the essence of the figure. Her rhythmic layers and merging narrative, extends beyond reality and into the equity of ‘being’. - E.E. Jacks

Rick Hurst STELLAR BIRTH - A New Guiding Light in Troubled Times | 2021 Archival-quality Digital Transformation on Metal Panel | 24h x 18w x 1d in $595
Florida United States of America
Rick Hurst RickHurstArt@gmail.com rickhurstart.com
About My creative perspective and process is unique in the world of digital design. My art continues to mature and evolve, which constantly compels me to share my art with an everwidening audience. I see universal energies in the world around me — the life forces of nature, the vibrancy of color, the vitality and strength of architecture. My purpose is to interpret and reveal those energies to all who view my art — to awaken curiosity and prompt introspection, to feed their inner being, to have my designs resonate with them. All of my designs begin with original photography that captures the beauty and spirit of nature and the real world. I meld these photos into digital artworks using multiple exposures, layers, color transformations and art filters.
Curator Review STELLAR BIRTH - A New Guiding Light in Troubled Times This energetic and highly creative work by artist Rick Hurst exudes an almost electrical current of consonance and motion. The wondrously imaginative mind of Hurst, brings to life a kinetic realization of form within the organic. His profound interpretation of connection and creation joining hands, singularly expressed in mixed media, utterly entrances and speaks in the voice of the celestial. - E.E. Jacks

Honorable Mention Andrew Keith Feminine Flow | 2020 White Marble on Granite Base | 4 x 4 x 12 in $1,500
Utah United States of America
Andrew Keith andrewjkeith25@yahoo.com andrewjosephkeith.com
About I am a figurative artist and sculptor who loves to learn about and represent the human figure. Some of my work is more realistic and some work is more abstract and stylized but it’s almost always focused on the human figure.
Curator Review Feminine Flow There is a wonderful emotional force and vitality in this symbolic work by artist Andrew Keith. The form and purely balanced energy of this sculpture, most certainly evokes the astute title. Time appears to stand still in the same way that water ripples from one point to another. Keith’s exquisite stone work dances with the supernal, and truly conveys the beauty of inner communion and grace. - E.E. Jacks

Curator Review My spirit-eye is passing into the evening glow This soft and subtle piece by artist Sueim Koo, hovers between an abstract composition of hues and shapes, and the representation of light and beauty within nature. Long painterly lines, fused tones and Koo’s technique in her placement of splatter and texture, absolutely vibrates with unity. ‘The Evening Glow’ is both felt and seen in this stunning work that singularly seduces the viewer, into a world of abstract romanticism. - E.E.

Co Meath Ireland
Sallyanne Morgan morgansallyanne@yahoo.com sallyannemorgansculpture.net
About Having lived and travelled throughout SE Asia and Europe for 17 years I returned to my home Country Ireland in 2019 to continue my practice in conceptual figurative sculpture. By intertwining contemporary concepts with magical figurative realism, I use common construction materials to animate ideas around human consciousness; persona and vulnerability. Gestures and articulations of the human form; this intricate dance of outward behavior and internal narrative is a source of constant inspiration for me.
Curator Review Instrument This resonant sculpture of a feminine figure merging with the strings, scroll and tailpiece of an ‘instrument’ is both powerful and affective. The textured surface and contrasting lines and curves, subtly exposes those human vulnerabilities whilst exhibiting a pose of strength and readiness. Artist Sallyanne Morgan has created an exquisitely reflective and balanced work that takes on the feel of an influential monument. - E.E. Jacks

Queensland Australia
Kevin Rogers rogersart57@gmail.com pinterest.com.au/razoredge57/_saved
About I endeavour to create artworks that speak both to me and to the viewers about the beauty that exists and once did. Part of my process before starting a piece is to research as much as I can about the subject matter. I classify myself as an Historical Artist’, which means, I look for beautiful old images of our past and meticulously recreate them in their original black and white or research the colours that would have been. I try with every completed work to breathe life into a long forgotten era through use of my materials. Bringing the past to life creates calm in many people, stirring memories of their past and if I have achieved this, then I feel very pleased. I don’t want to just replicate the image, I want to breathe life back into it.

Curator Review Earth II A wild sense of freedom and spontaneity can be felt in this lively painting by artist Petra Schott. Her attentively placed yet liberated markings and bold brush strokes, convey a wondrous sense of movement with intent. Her powerful execution and deliberate expression, reflects Schott’s desire to condense painting to its abstract essentials. This deeply ‘present’ piece, absolutely vibrates with intensity, revealing the ‘Earth’ in all of its organic glory. - E.E. Jacks

Ira Stein Cosmetics | 2011 Mixed Media Collage on Wood | 72 in NFS
California United States of America
Ira Stein ira@irastein.com irasten.com
About In Stein’s works, you are provoked to think about genetics and behavior. What his art does best is to engage our minds on this particular subject.. With Stein’s precision sight, his focus on essentialism solicits an examination of nature/ nurture philosophy contrasted with the expanding scientific knowledge of genetics. Stein is brutally honest, and this bluntness is apparent throughout his paintings, sculptures and mixed media works. A Vietnam Veteran (he served as a pilot in the thick of action), Stein brings his visceral perspective to our attention with force - either shocking our senses to conjure unease, surprise and alarm in the viewer or capturing our attention with the lurid, often vulgar stories of the subjects’ lives.

British Columbia Canada
Claudia Wiebe claudia@claudiawiebe.com claudiawiebe.com
About Claudia Wiebe creates emotional and expressive SoulArt. Her abstract paintings and mixed-media art are inspired by the ever-changing complexities of love and loss, and joy and grief… Claudia’s artwork reflects her life…surrounded by very painful and melancholic memories, as well as many happy and wonderful experiences. She believes art speaks to the soul, some days like a soft whisper and other days like a loud roar. It is her hope that the authentic and unique experiences expressed in her acrylic paintings leave lots of room for everyone’s own imagination and interpretation, and that each piece touches someone deeply and sparks their soul. Originally from Germany, Claudia has been living in Canada for over 30 years.
Curator Review Sometime and Somewhere The ever evolving beauty and spirit of life in its true colors and sentiments, has most certainly been depicted here. Artist Claudia Wiebe has brilliantly composed a work of hope and verity. From the soft pink merging with the textured blues, to the vibrant oranges, sweeping strokes and muted text beneath paint, Wiebe’s subtle yet detailed work, sings of symbolism and those melancholy truths of ‘time’. - E.E.
