Artist̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s Statement
I pounce on glimpses,
capturing images that twitch in my subconscious.
I move by instinct, marking the paper.
Like awakening from a catnap, the images reflect
not one experience, but a montage.
Remembering and responding, the light, dark, and color
tell stories from the alley.
My path can be detected in the
tracks of charcoal, wax, ink, and paint.
Rips, drips, and ooze brush and encounter.
I stalk fields with false starts, blunders, and victories.
I watch out, I reach in, and I reemerge.
Painting, I see in the dark,
continuing my travels,
my nine lives.

| BIOGRAPHY: |
| There are many reasons people choose to create art. For some, it is an escape; a way to channel energy into something constructive. For others, it is the joy of creation and self-expression, and sharing that love with others. Personally, I create art for these reasons, and also with the hope that my work will inspire others to cultivate their own creative endeavors. |

| BIOGRAPHY: |
| Wurden expresses herself best through her fine art. It is on canvas where she is able to use her creative energies in a more mystical manner and paint images beyond decoration. She paints abstractly coupled with realism. Her paintings reflect vibrant colors and lively gestured brush stokes interconnected with the use of quiet and sensual color blending.
Creating art is my addiction; its about fulfilling a craving within me. I now paint with the intension of producing positive and powerful images. To paint fine art is my gift and my responsibility in that I use the medium to unveil the grace and beauty in life and in our universe. To release a new painting is to give form to the formless and a channel to the invisible. My wish for choosing to paint art that uplifts is in materializing reflections of that light in those who look into my art.

| BIOGRAPHY: |
| My interest in art began at age eleven I attended the Newark school for fine industrial art in Newark, New Jersey. My experience began soon after graduation from art school. I worked at various jobs, but continued to pursue my desire to work professionally.
As an artist by marketing my talent, my artwork became apparent to many of my co-workers and in- house employees. Subseguently, I was in demand for various types of freelance work included but not limited to family, children and wedding paints etc. for several years. My professional career began when I was hired by third power marketing and development inc. to produce black and white story boards which were used in advertising development. With PSE&G in New Jersey, my story boards was published in the New Jersey local newspapers. I've done a trademark rendering of to females shaking hands for the girl scouts brochures. In 1993 I moved to San Diego, California, and was commissioned to do a lobby painting for the San Diego local television news station. I've done several paintings for Johnson & Johnson pharmaceutical research institute, in La Jolla, Ca. Also commissioned to do tee shirt design of green hornet television show that was sold in the east coast and west coast. The work was approved by the actor who played the green hornet, Van Williams. Today a still consider Van Williams a friend.In conclusion art has become my passion, no other single subject offers as much opportunity to be creative with the gift that god blessed me what. I am now back in New Jersey and still continuing with my art and my goals. |

Statement:
I am experimenting with plaster on wood. The plaster is my primary surface. It can be built up, textured, sculpted and works well with paint, wax, and pencil, as well as foreign objects. These new, bold works are an exploration of texture, color and space, infusing geometry with organic freedom. I want the viewer to participate...to have a visual dialog with the art, and a subliminal nod when they make the connection.

| BIOGRAPHY: |
| My photos are actually paintings of photos. I take the pictures and I overlay the image with the right colors and shading. This is why they have that cartoon look to them.
It's a little hard for me to describe my context of my work. Each piece pretty much expresses an idea or philosophy that I have acquired during my experience in life. I see alot of problems in my direct generation and also the society that surrounds me. I try to express these issues using some kind of narrative structure to each picture where irony, metaphors and symbolism carries the context of the piece. My work has a very simple aesthetic to it because I feel that every item in the picture needs to be a strong part of the theme that is being conveyed.
When people see my art I want them to be able to see issues in a new light. Some people have fallen into a world where others decide for them, media tells them what to enjoy, commercials tell them what to buy and celebrities tell them what to like. This way of living is not living. It's individuality that creates a life, but when MTV is force feeding my whole generation on how to experience life I feel it kills authentic souls. My art is aesthetically connected with the types of images that magazines would be able to use in order to sell anything, because many of my pieces include sex, drugs and violence, but unfortunately this aesthetic is necessary in order for my work to hit the people who I think have fallen into this problem. If sex sells to the public, I am hoping the public will "buy" my philosophies toward life and adapt them them to their own in order to be a more well rounded individual and not a puppet of the world around them. |

The combination of several art techniques - the traditional ones (in particular drawing and painting) and the digital tool - became my medium. My areas of interest are the creation and exploration of image comositions & variations, new dimensions thru underlying structures and shapes, visual language. So it is evident that I chose the digital tool for my work. In my photographic work I am fascinated by architecture & urban scenes. In my photographic work I want that the image is perceived differently. An ordinary scene becomes extraordinary ... and so much more. Message is sent. Color & composition are critical. It's about my focus on us & our environment. My personal engagement in art is to make our environment visible. |

Hello, my name is Adam Roth-Caretsky,I'm 29 years old.My focus in life is my art. I attended school at the State University of N.Y. at Purchase College,and started off in Manhattan at The Fashion Inst. of Technology. I grew up in Northport, Long Island.I Graduated college in May of 2002. I lived in N.Y. a few years after college. I had some art shows, and was very productive with my art, but I needed a change.I was in California a few months and then moved here, to Las Vegas about 5 years ago. My art has characteristics of Abstract Expressionism, and Pop Art/Culture. Doing art, is the way I can release my visions, and the ideas inside me,and find out about myself.My different travels,experiences,relationships,and surroundings have a big impact on what I choose to create. When I complete something, it shows me the changes I went through, and the way I felt as a person/artist during that time.Thats what pushes me the most.My creative reactions to different life experiences. I earn money, and can be creative. Thats what I love so much. I have a lot of confidence w/ my talent. Painting, Fine art,sculpture,interior design, murals,contests, and commissions, is what I push for in life.When producing art, I try to use a style and/or a painting language thats unique to me. What ever I do, it should express my ideas, and reflect me, as a person.Thinking back, 1998, I went through a lot of changes artistically. My work and inspirations were changing. I was, and still am a huge fan of Jasper Johns, Bassquait, and Andy Warhol. Attending F.I.T. in the city, and then spending the summers in the Hamptons opened a lot of doors, allowing me to be very productive. During that time I was able to generate a good amount of acceptable work. I was getting inspiration from two, very different places. In N.Y.C. , the Chelsea Hotel is home to so many artists and creative people, one of which being Larry Rivers,The Ramones,and others.In East Hampton, there were artists like Peter Beard, and Julian Schnabel. I worked for them on several occasions, sometimes at the Andy Warhol Estate. Not long after, I spent two months in Spain. I made art, learned the language, and saw the work of Joan Miro, Tapies, Valazquez, and Pablo Picasso. All these experiences are behind me now, which brings my art, to were it is today, here in Las Vegas. A life in art is a hustle, but I live and breathe art, so I will accept nothing less, nothing! My most famous/recognized work is titled- 'Condiments on Canvass'.It has thousands of filled sauce packets/condiments stacked up and glued one by one, mounted on canvass.It took me 3 months, and its over 100 LBS of packets on canvass 36X52 inches, from 2004. I have a big family, my mother Valarie, my 2 dads Bill Caretsky , and Jeff Roth. My brothers Bret , PJ , Ian, Eric, and my one sister Brandy. My grandmother Angie lives here in Vegas, and she is one of my favorites.I wanna meet and show my art to more and more people,I hope you, - www.selfportrait.net/arcfoundation , SIXFUZZYBUGS@YAHOO.COM , My exhibitions; August , 2007, Commerce St, Naked City Ink Gallery.

I really like painting reflections, the opposite world where you can go and be mesmerized by it's mirror image. I also like big open fields where your spirit can roam through your own imagination. I now live where everyday you see farms with Cows, Horses , Sheep, etc... grazing outside. It is absolutely beautiful. I know that there are a lot of great paintings to come from all this inspiration ! I hope to be a artistic historian and record these images because someday they may no longer be there. |

| BIOGRAPHY: |
| As a kid it was mostly about defiance. About rebelling against the maths and sciences in a cowardly attempt to protect myself from the things I could not understand. As I got older it came to be about release. About learning to let go of the things I want most in this world in order to make room for the things I need. Less angst. More acceptance. Art lets me love the ugly. Painting forces me to look the reality of the world around me in the eye and then it blesses me with the chance to change it. It begs me to climb inside the parts of me that dont make sense, all the bruises and the broken hearts, and get down on the floor with fear and work. It makes the giant promise that grace, fate and divine intervention will meet me there. I paint because I am selfish, because I want to know the point. I paint because life isnt fair and sometimes I cant take it. I paint for proof that this is real, that he was here, that she said the things I think she did. I paint so I can have something real to hold on to when the moments gone and disappeared and all thats left of it is color. I stand alone in the little room where I live with my dog and I look at the things I have created. I hear a million voices, different sides to the exact same story, all speaking to me at once. I close my eyes and breathe it in. I touch the things Ive made and I am grateful. |
