In learning about Mr. Oskin, and his art, I am fascinated by how he has studied art, and different aspects of art, and has grown in his art (including fine art photography), as a result of this study of creativity. And, yet, he is not limited by mere knowledge of the craft, but is able to express himself and interpret and seek out the beauty around him and present it to us, in his own brand of expression of art.
In learning about Ms. Kadish, I am struck by what a student of life she is and how much she not only observes life around her, but takes it in, experiences it, interprets it, and expresses it out to the world around her, for the rest of us to enjoy as a part of our life’s experiences.
Come, meet Ms. Natalia Kadish…
There is so much more to Ms. Consuelo Okdie and her art than what could possibly be articulated here. She is gifted in painting (and creating her own paints), as well as the sculpting and the combination of both. That’s why I called this “Tantalizing Textures,” because the color and the design and the art pull me in wanting more!
Come, let’s get to know Ms. Okdie, in her own words…
My first memorable art piece was a hippie/folk embroidery that I started working on while travelling with a Buddhist spiritual group in Europe in the 70s. I was going to give it to the “Guru” when it was done (it took months to complete), but then met my future husband and gave it to him instead!
When I was trying to come up with the title of this post, beyond Mr. Stilletto’s name, I found myself, well, speechless. That isn’t an easy feat, I might add. I always have difficulty trying to describe an artist with two words. Granted, that is a self-imposed limitation, but I try to have a little fun with it, nonetheless.
I was very struck by Mr. Stilletoo’s art, but also his way with words. It seems that his expression, be in graphical or the communication art, emanates his essence. Read with me, will you, in the words of the artist, himself…
