Michael Sprouse: Cause To Fade

Posted by: Kenneth Rougeau in Art, Artists, Collage, Mixed Media, Photography, Websites, painting

“As an artist, I find that the most memorable art, regardless of its style, all share one common characteristic – it’s the ability to sucessfully tell a story. Since the birth of communication, humanity has been connected to the ’story’. We are lulled to sleep by them as children, enthralled by them on the stage and screen as adults, and are compelled to share our own with the young as we drift into senior-hood. I have always been fascinated by the imagery of early silent film and vintage photography and the ’stories’ they portrayed. It is the same focus on silent communication, delivered only by expression that motivates my work today. I use in-depth expression in my work to relate interpersonal stories of lost love, hope, fear, desire, dedication, wistful remembrances and more. The faces I paint are symbolically reminiscent of vague and vintage dream landscapes which focus on the metaphoric mood and flow of each person’s individual story.” – Michael Sprouse

“I have been involved in art since I was 11 or so, way back in the 70’s. In that time, I have created a large catalog of work in photography and illustration, and my commercial work in design and animation has been seen on Cartoon Network, Animal Planet, Nickelodeon, CBS, TNT, TBS, PBS, and TechTV. I create all my work digitally, mostly starting with a blank screen and using the mouse or a pen and graphics tablet to create an image. I use scans in my collage work, but everything else is painted or drawn within the computer. My wife and I have an Etsy shop of Customizable Art for Kids called motanddot. Please check it out.”

Alexey Titarenko: Prolonged Exposure

Posted by: Kenneth Rougeau in Uncategorized

Alexey Titarenko:
Prolonged Exposure

“Attuned to atmosphere rather than architecture, his poignant images – particularly of people – are often deliberately blurred, a metaphor for life’s uncertainty. Dostoevsky, still a haunting presence in the city, is at times Alexey Titarenko’s inspiration in conveying its noirish aspects. In ‘Untitled (Stranger)’ of 1996, two indistinct figures, seen through lines of slanting snow before a building lighted only by a basement window, make a scene right out of ‘Crime & Punishment.’” – Grace Glueck, The New York Times
