Featured Artist Jenna von Benedikt – Santaquin, UT @jennavonbenediktart Born outside of London, England, Jenna gains inspiration from her European roots, places she’s lived, travelled, as well as her current surroundings in Utah’s Rocky Mountains. Her work often draws on the meaning of her name, “Little Bird,” and is inspired by man’s connection and stewardship of the earth. Jenna is curious that the Creation story is strongly emphasized in her faith numerous times, and enjoys translating the idea of creatures–birds particularly– as ethereal messengers bridging the gap between heaven and Earth. The idea of incorporating patterns and designs with the various subjects found in the days of the Creation story is a way Jenna connects symbolism and personal beliefs with her surroundings, as seen in her #saintedbirds, #saintedbeasts and #saintedbugs series. Her goal is to capture the story and soul of her subjects against an atmosphere that entertains both human and wild beauty. ​ Hummingbirds often play the characters in the stories of her paintings. Like our lives often seem to be, they too are fast paced and there is something beautiful in trying to seize their stillness and unique colorful qualities–moments we often take for granted or miss within our own interactions with others. #artistportfoliomagazine #fineart #oilpainting #artcollector #contemporaryart #art #artist #artlovers #birds #birdpainting #abstractart #visualart #artwork #buyartfromartists Featured Artist Nikita Budkov – Reseda, CA @nikitayasny Contemporary Russian-American artist Nikita Budkov was born in Zvenigorod, a suburb of Moscow, Russia on August 16, 1995. As a young boy, he enjoyed reading classic fairytales, science fiction novels, and comics, which all helped shape his imagination and eventually inspired him to express his thoughts through pencil drawings. During his teen years, he became a fan of British and American rock and was later exposed to various genres including metal and electronic music. Budkov says, “Music is an eternal companion on my career journey.” As a child, Nikita received his training at the Children’s Art School Program in Odintsovo and successfully graduated with honors. He then enrolled in an architectural course at the Moscow Architecture Institute with the goal of becoming a professional architect. However, his life changed greatly after he had an opportunity to come to the United States of America in 2012 as an exchange student. Upon graduating from Cotter High School in Minnesota, where he was crowned Homecoming King, Budkov was awarded an honorable mention in Scholastic Art & Writing from the state of Minnesota. From this point, he was inspired to pursue a career in traditional fine art. ...

Deadline to submit art for our next issue is January 13th. #artistportfoliomagazine #callforart #art #artmag #fineart #contemporaryart #photography #oilpainting #acrylicpainting #watercolor #abstractart Featrued Artist Connie Moore – Waynoka, OK @fifthsisterart Connie Moore, M.Ed., began a career as an artist in 2003 when she opened a digital art studio and gallery in Waynoka, Oklahoma. She still offers unique digital art pieces printed on canvas utilizing her customer’s photos. However, her artistic focus shifted in the summer of 2011 when she began her creative journey in layered mixed media abstract art. She discovered her love for this art process and was heavily influenced by the vast artistic community of Mendocino, California. Beginning with an exploratory process of placing various materials on a blank canvas, she, spontaneously, without conscious intent adds layers of unique textures and color. Each piece is a wonderful surprise. The process of creating without intent; not expecting a certain outcome allows her to be purely in the moment with her art. She finds as much pleasure in the process as she does in the final outcome. ​ A variety of materials are used in the creation process. Materials include cotton linter paper, gel, beads, molding paste, sand, string, cheese cloth, gold and silver leaf, acrylic and oil paint, saw dust, alcohol, powered paint, ink, egg shell, plastic, and tin foil. Connie states, “I am continually evaluating items I run across contemplating their use in a painting. The colors and textures that emerge from these materials are simply fascinating.” Her abstract works are best known from her use of metallic materials. #artistportfoliomagazine #fineart #stilllife #realisticart #realism #lighting #stilllifepainting #art #artistalley #artcollective #artcollector #followartist #visualart #artwork🎨 #contemporaryart #buyartfromlivingartists Featured Artist Nick Patten – Hudson, NY @nfpatten Settling on a composition for one of my room interior paintings is a progressive process. I pick and choose the most interesting and necessary elements from an array of photographs, often adding items from my imagination. Light & Dark is a primary focus of my painting, with particular attention to brush stroke and gradation in the darkest areas. Through working from photographs with the aim of creating believable paintings, I strive to bring a quiet drama to everyday scenes. My paintings are never intended to be “photographic”. In part, my aim is to make paintings where the content of the image is most compelling, and how the painting was made is secondary. In a sense, attempting to make the work exceed the medium, my goal is to be able to paint what I want to see.” Nick Patten #artistportfoliomagazine #art #arts #artistoninstagram #artcollective #stilllife #realisticart #realism #lighting #design #interiordesign #visualart #artmag #featuredartist #artwork🎨 #followartist #buyartfromlivingartists Featured Artist Marcelina Gonzales – Brownsville, TX @marcellaneous Women are not things. This body of work seeks to reclaim every cat call, tongue slurp, aroused grunt, and unsolicited grab spewed into existence then thrown onto another human. Whether deliberately exaggerated, androgynous, or representative, the female narrative lies predominantly at the forefront as personal histories of abuse are visually narrated. Accounts of misogynistic behaviors will be opposed with playfully sarcastic humor and hyperbole while questioning whether pure and authentic comraderies can exist amongst unfamiliar individuals, whether fleeting or longstanding, without anxieties of ulterior motives. Presented as objectified beings through themes of cynical submission then self-realization and courageous independence, this work employs itself to challenge and obliterate the expected androcentric social, political, economic, religious, and sexual role of a female living in today’s America. #artistportfoliomagazine #latinaartist #latina #art #artist #featuredartist #artcollector #visualarts #mixedmediaart #molaa #contemporaryart #artlovers #buyartfromlivingartists #followartist #callforart #artistalley #artistoninstagram @molaaart
