"...Beauty of natural and idyllic paradise."

about the artist
Krystyna Suchwallo .She was born in Vilnius at 1958.From 1959 she is living in Poland. Studied-State Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk. Graduation with honours in1986 from Prof. Sramkiewicz’s class. She has many exhibitions in Poland ,Sweden, Germany and Austria. Works in many private collections in Germany, Holland, Japan, Poland Sweden and USA. “Krystyna Suchwallo, one of the outstanding Polish landscape painters, studied painting at the Fine Arts Academy of Gdansk under the eminent artist-Professor Kazimierz Sramkiewicz. She is of Lithuanian descent: thirty generations of her family have always held in the highest regard the memory of their legendary ancestor-Prince Gedymin who lived as early as in the pagan times of Middle Ages. As befits a descendant of the family who once ruled the Great Princedom of Lithuania, she is a neoconservative. Her painting reflect a noble search for the beauty of natural and idyllic paradise. It is the world with could be seen during a magic, subcelestial flight. The most beautiful spaces open up like a dream before our eyes. We admire what human beings have always admired: Our Earth. We look at wild shores of the sea, steep rocks full of pathos and sublimeness, clouds witch haven’t been painted by anybody before. The artist’s virtuosity, her perfect technique and her sensitive eyes of a master recall the best tradition of both the French and English landscape paintings. Like Corot, Turner, she reacts to atmospheric phenomenons rather than architecture of landscape .Her fogs, dawns and twilights, her southern seas and northern fiords are the true poem woven from joy and nostalgia, power and weakness, pathos and pensiveness. Her pictures aren’t common landscapes. Her mountains are also beautiful sculptures and her oceans are impressive displays of firework, of sparkles and glitters, of sudden strokes of the brush illuminating like flashes. To the artist painting is everything. First of all it’s a mysterious ritual, during which she discovers like Theseus the secrets of Labyrinth. At the time of painting, listenig to the music without melody and rhythm, she put herself in an odd trans. She becomes her own medium. The painting space draws her into its interior. She stands on the thresholds of her pictures and then-like Bulhakow’s heroine passionately depicted in his “Master and Margarita”-she starts her flight to the lands of eternal beauty. It happened also to me: while looking at her pictures I got an irresistible feeling that I heard a sough of gentle breeze and smelled a sandy soil warmed by the sun .”Gdansk 27th February 1989 Professor Czeslaw Tumielewicz
artists' statement
Your work: I find the paintings skillfully executed in an expressive style that includes compositional aesthetics, as well as use of light and color to convey mood and emotion. The work reveals subtle form within a complex structure of abstraction to convey a sublime vision of the landscape. Resolute in style and milieu, the paintings achieve poignancy through a unique perspective that resonates throughout the cohesive presentation. I feel that the work will resonate well with our audience. Excellent work.

"...I want to let the paint fly."

about the artist

Born 1970. (American abstract painter) Living in Los Angeles, California, Scott Spencer loves to listen to music while he paints. "Classical music is great for the more cerebral pieces and good old rock and roll works best when I want to let the paint fly." Spencer takes inspiration from his immediate surroundings, real or imagined, and paints into the wee hours of the night. "That's when the energy comes." He began painting full time after a brush with cancer in 1999. Spencer is represented by renowned gallerist and art dealer Biljana Grcic-Beran through Galeria Jan in La Jolla, California, and was admitted into the Pasadena Society of Artists in 2004.

artists' statement

Life is a game. Play along. In the Grand Scheme of it all, we may very well be experiencing different realities. These are definitely wacky times. We live in an age of orange newscasters and Burger King memorabilia. I stepped off the deep end a long time ago and have been dogpaddling for dear life ever since. Nobody taught me to run from my problems. I had to learn that one on my own. I give myself over to That Which Governs. I know Someone or Something is watching after me, keeping vigil. Every day I thank my lucky stars and the Powers That Be that there are art collectors in this world. "Thank you," to everyone who owns and all future owners of these paintings. You are wonderful people, allowing me to continue painting and giving me great satisfaction. If you're ever in Los Angeles, please look me up. I'll buy you some lunch. I'd like to get to know you. Every canvas has an agenda--a life of its own separate from its maker, separate from thought or logic or reason--and to plot its course is only to interfere. To plan is to destroy. Let it paint. Trust the mess. All marks are good. Oh, but the mutiny of scrutiny . . . if we could only leave it alone. The self-taught artist has a great chance to be unique. Without knowledge of "rules" to hinder the hand or an instructor's style to imitate, what results is pure, entirely his own. Contrary to popular belief, abstract art is "meaningful" on a parallel with representational art. Each of us sees differently, and individual responses to an abstract work of art are varied. An abstract work's "meaning" is oftentimes stronger and more personal for the viewer than it is in purely representational art where the subject matter is obvious and can only evoke a limited range of emotions. Nowhere else in this existence have I found the freedom and exhilaration that oil painting affords. Albert Einstein said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge." Welcome words to a daydreamer like me. "There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion." Francis Bacon Being gay is a gift, a variation on a theme. Love is too powerful to be shaped or confined. At the moment, I'm loving the paintings of Cecily Brown, Raimonds Staprans and Paul Balmer. My all-time favorites are Max Beckmann, Milton Avery, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Joan Mitchell, Egon Schiele, Richard Diebenkorn, Helen Frankenthaler and Lucien Freud.about the artist Born 1970.
