"Leaves along the Path "
"Leaves along the Path
On a pathway made of
Moments
special and mundane,
beautiful and ugly,
glorious and inglorious,
like strewn leaves along the way.
So are we. "
-- Mathilde Vhargon
A former professional classical musician, I began making sculpture in Second Life and then became more focused on digital painting, which I create using only Gimp software and a mouse or digital drawing pad. I love the many possibilities digital software offers for creating and saving multiple versions of a piece I am working on.
My paintings suggest themselves to me a little at a time without conscious planning. I often use small sections of them as materials to develop into new paintings.
I dislike sharp corners and edges, so my process usually involves blending and merging for smooth transitions, with dozens of small adjustments to produce the subtle, rich, analogous colour layering I enjoy. I love strong colours and flowing abstract forms. You will often find ambiguous suggestions that lead the viewer to imagine various possibilities and interpretations. I am most happy when my art creates a chain of associations and questions about life and humanity. The possibility that we might touch someone with a common connection, making them think and feel in response to our work, is the most wonderful thing about making art.
My favourite artists are Marc Chagall and J.M.W. Turner.
I am owner of Two Shores Gallery of Fine Art and Two Shores Gallery of Fine Art Guest Artist Annex, located in the Magna Carta sim in the Avalon arts community. My own artworks are in my Main Building.

About the Artist - Mauro Enyo (in SL)
Pepe Saldarriaga (in RL)
_____________________________________________________
(English)
I am a crystalline being, but wandering and restless
because of the darkness and misery I have
encountered so often in a contemplative way,
and by other bloody realities I encounter in my
own trembling skin, driving me to the point of
madness; so that I struggle to hurl angels and
demons from their cohabitation in my being and
let them be perpetuated onto canvas, wooden material,
paper, and other supporting media, sometimes
moaning and in forms constructed from the most
dissimilar verses of poetry.
My academic studies were the result of my desire to
improve my talent, a desire carried forward from my
childhood. My first pen and ink sketches were drawings
of dinosaurs that consumed cities with imaginary
skyscrapers crashing down in a deliciously
catastrophic scene.
I can say this to describe myself, directing a retrospective
glance from that time forward to my arrival in the here and now
with the same sincerity as ever, framed in a smile of welcome
for all good-willed people.
In SL, I have exhibits at:

(Spanish)
Soy una entidad cristalina que vaga por las oscuridades y miserias de esas realidades con las que me he topado de una manera muchas veces contemplativa otras encarnizadas en mi propia piel hasta la locura; que pugna expeler los Ángeles y demonios que cohabitan en mi ser para dejarlos perpetuados en la tela, la madera, el papel, el cartón otras veces gimiendo y construidos por versos de lo mas disímiles.
Mis estudios académicos fueron el resultado del deseo de perfeccionamiento de un talento que ya traía desde niño. Mis primeros bocetos en lapicero fueron dinosaurios que consumían las ciudades con rascacielos imaginarios en movimiento en una deliciosa catástrofe.
Eso puedo decir de mi por ahora, dirigiendo una mirada retrospectiva hasta llegar al aquí y el ahora con la misma sinceridad de siempre, enmarcada en una sonrisa de bienvenida para todas las personas de buena voluntad

Biography
He is an artist with long experience in the world of the computers and with this great technical resource he is able to carry out the ideas that he wants to express. He has used, and in some cases modified, a dozen software programs to create, manage and alter each one of the images. After creating a 3-D structure he covers it with a texture with water. This element, properly illuminated, is located in the center of a virtual box with mirrored walls. The reflections multiply, prolonging itself without end. It is an infinite sequence within a finite space.
Gerardo Garcia (Pértiga)
An exceptional artist able to dominate the technical side of art so that his overflowing imagination settles and it is naturally spilled upon the canvas. His work, after an impeccable and long period history exhibiting in alternative spaces and on the Internet, is a unique gift for the art community.
Manuel Perez-Lizano (President of Aragonese Association of Critics of Art)
