Svetlana Bobrova ~ Surrealist painter

The surreal world, created by Svetlana, is full of strange creatures. In this world everything is possible. Her artworks are full of energy, passion and grotesqueness. Like dreams, they are born from real anxieties and experiences, taking the spectator far into the depths of sub-consciousness. They have a hypnotic internal glow, which penetrates the eyes with tonal transitions of neon, green, yellow and blue.

Jerome Parker

A Central California native, Jerome comes from a family of artists and musicians. A quiet and introspective figure, Jerome is active in galleries in this beautiful region of his home state.

Figurative compositions, closely observed from life, comprise many of this artist s rich work in oils and charcoal.

Though clearly inspired by the masters, Jerome s intriguing subjects nevertheless capture a certain contemporary view of life in the moment.

I was born in Moscow in 1959. I live in Moscow. I use mixed media in my work: tempera, acrylic. Probably, my genes, for it was a matter of chance. I have been painting professionally since 1988 after the retirement from the Army. Before that I was an amateur artist.

Guine Gerard, 1947 | Abstract Figurative painter

Un bien bel artiste, Gérard GUINÉ, dans ce genre délicat représenté par la femme en séduction et en mystère. Son réalisme n'est jamais inanimé malgré les poses de ses modèles, tant il sait les diversifier avec de subtiles évocations, redoublant le personnage en lui insufflant sortilège et grâce. La technique est remarquable et la lumière glisse avec une tendre efficacité sur la peau de biens jolies personnes tandis que de somptueux tissus et décors s'en donnent à coeur joie au sein de compositions attentives. Du métier, de la sensisibilité, de l'imagination et une perception magique de la beauté font de Gérard GUINÉ un maître en la matière. | André RUELLAN, critique d'art
