When people find out Im an artist, they usually say, “Oh, you should paint me something for over my fireplace!” I always follow with: “Let me show you my work first. Its not for everyone”. A girl I used to work with, saw one of my paintings (my favorite, for the record) and said, “You’re f#@*ing weird, Kara”. Truth is...she’s probably right. When I was a kid, instead of playing with my Barbies, I pulled off their arms and legs and made new arrangements. When I looked at the

In a world that moves fast, Dina Marie’s fine art photography asks us to pause. Each image captures more than a moment; it captures a feeling of place.

Tuscan contemporary artist Federico Gori founds his multidisciplinary work on the concepts of unpredictability and impermanence in nature. Through engravings, paintings, sculptures, and installations, Gori explores the relentless passing of time in all its facets, highlighting the natural world’s transformation process and the limitations of human action against its action. “I employ techniques and materials that force internal and external transformations upon my work. These

As a colorist and abstract painter, I have spent my artistic life chasing the elusive moment when a hue becomes more than pigment—when it transforms into emotion, memory, and quiet revelation. For me, color is never merely visual; it is a language of the spirit, a “visual feel-good” that resonates deep within the soul. My philosophy of art is unapologetically existential. I believe that truly great painting must carry a communicative current: from the artist’s inner world ont

A walk through the streets of Mykonos is synonymous with warm summer magic. The whitewashed structures, cobblestone streets and salty air give one the feeling that Greek gods and goddesses are just around the corner, waiting to let you into their mysterious world of fateful stories. The island has long been associated with magical nightlife, summer paradise, ancient Greek myths, and history dating back to the early 11th century BCE. The rocks that cover the island are even sa
