Gill Croy - Montgomery, Alabama

Creating art in everything I do is not just a passion it is a need - using color and form to transform the page, canvas, wall or body into a dazzling display that inspires the imagination and excites the soul, is my hope and dream when I began a project. My love of vintage 60's and 70's "poster art", the manufactured look of the Pop Art Studios and early 20th century social and war propaganda, can be seen in most all of my works. Along with graphic visual inspirations, I am drawn to the six colors of the LGBTQ pride flag, they make my artwork jarring almost "gaudy", and at the same time exciting and childlike to most viewers. "Color and Art are a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death!" to paraphrase Auntie Mame, but so true it is.

Most of my pieces are customized pieces of art that are a collaboration between myself and the client. If you are interested in finding out more about having a piece of art created just for you, please contact me by filling out the form and the bottom of this page. Peace, love and art to you and yours.

Daniel Walker - Huntsville, Alabama

 

Hi!

 I’m Daniel, from Huntsville, AL.  Ever since I saw my first big, bold abstract painting at 5 I’ve been captivated by how easy it is to get lost in color, strokes, and texture.  It’s my release from the troubles of the world, and I’m always experimenting with crazy new materials.

DaNeal Eberly - Prattville, Alabama

I started drawing the human figure at three years old.   I started drawing very young and have loved it most of my life.  I started painting devotedly in 1993, first with watercolor, and moved to acrylic in 1995.  In 2012, I started experimenting with oils and pastels, as well and I love the intensity of the color they both offer. I am currently doing a mix of acrylic background with oil on top of it.  Painting is a very physical, almost musical, experience for me. Even if I spend days and weeks on a piece, I hope to always exemplify the fervor of artistic invention and to glorify playful experimentation.  Truthfully, the physical application of paint and the physical act of digging into wet paint with a palette knife or even a paintbrush handle excites me.  I enjoy doing portraits and figures that suggest the idea of an underlying rhythm or continual motion that is in the common moments of everyday life. I use rich, bold, expressive colors because I believe color incites longing and depicts angst and provokes revelry.  

I am involved in a very exciting project right now with my work. I am using female models who are also friends of mine. We are seeking together to unlock and unfold the natural beauty and unlock feminine boldness with different poses, dramatic lighting, and confident vulnerability. The history of art is filled with men’s viewing of women as art objects. I am suggesting with my work that as women look at each other through the lenses of friendship and sisterhood, there is potential for a unique expression. I, also, continue to work on figure paintings that I can use as a more personal narrative for my emotional life, my joys, and sorrows, which are very common to all people.
