Mirjam Appelhof ~ Dreaming of another world

Dutch Artist Mirjam Appelhof living in the Netherlands. "I started with making images 4 years ago. I had a enormous urge to translate my inner feelings. Fortunate I found my way to translate it…the camera.My creations reflect movement because I believe that nothing is static ”there were the moment stops, movement continues in time“.
My favorite lens is the macro lens.I love to created worlds from little materials…
I give them a meaning. My work is mostly build up with different images. I put them together in Photoshop.Everything you see I created myself. Sometimes I ”paint” on my images or use different materials. The figures you see are mostly me… I use the self-timer.
The little black man with the wings on the image opposites is a dragonfly.
Around this little black man I created a serie about 30 images.. I love to build new worlds…."

Olga and Aleksey Ivanov ~ Egg tempera painters

The Ivanovs emigrated from Russia to the United States in 2002. There were a number of reasons for their move. “We were working with a New York art agency by that time, and due to bureaucracy it was nearly impossible to deliver our art to clients on time”, says Aleksey. “Also, the tremendous interest in our art in the U.S. gave us a clear message that this is the country where we want to create”. They heard about Colorado from a visiting American writer friend. After arriving in the states they headed west, and, finding the Colorado landscapes eerily similar to those in Mantegna’s paintings, they instantly fell in love with the state. Their studio and home are located just outside of Denver. “When we begin a painting it usually starts with a drive”, says Olga. “Then we will stop in a beautiful place and discuss it”.
