|  | John Anfin |
|---|
I know the exact moment I became an artist. My second grade teacher, Mavis Lester, of McHarg Elementary School in Radford, VA, gave everyone in my class the "draw the state bird and flower" assignment.
Later, when she came to my desk, she put her hand on my shoulder and said, "John, you're an artist"; and I believed her.

“I paint to draw a bit of drama from the mundane and to record the character of the landscape and the houses that we have placed upon it. My goal is to use the paint with strength, joy and definition – to keep the brush alive. The pleasure is the pleasure of doing it.”

His paintings and drawings can be very pompously described as "rhythmic improvisational compositions and poetic conflations of cultural iconography, literary epochs and anthropological ephemera that form a visually cacophonic collision of mixed metaphors," or more simply as --abstract works with hints of stories.

Whether it be the New River or the branch of Sinking Creek that flows below our home, fog on the mountain, the glory of spring from the top of the meadow, a sunset over the tops of distant trees, an old house, or a favorite view down a road, I am enchanted by it. The last ten years of living in the middle of Sinking Creek Valley in Craig County have given me the opportunity to be wrapped in this mountain beauty and to remember it with paints and canvas.
Educated at Austin College (B.A.) and Virginia Tech (B.A.), Dillard has studied at workshops with Wayne Thiebauld, Darby Bannard, and Susan Shatter and at Arrowmont and Penland Schools of Art and Craft. Her work is in public and private collections throughout the US and in Britain and Germany. Dillard's studio is on the farm where she lives with her husband in the Sinking Creek Valley of Craig County, Virginia.

"Creating a portrait is a special interaction between the artist and subject. I love the challenge to capture in oil the beauty of the human form and unite the image with the spirit of the subject. My passion is to paint this generation to share with the generations to come and to seize what is often held in the "minds eye" so as not to be lost forever." Patsy Arrington Dorsett

Colors speak to me. Sometimes they shout out, “Use me, use me.” When I am ready to paint, I consult my colors and then I let the colors fly. I like to use the same approach when I work in clay. When I am ready to glaze my work, I consult with the colors to see which ones are shouting to go on my work. Colors are joyous and I like them to transmit the joy in my work.

I graduated from Virginia Tech with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design. I work full time as an Art Director for an advertising agency, but I have a passion for fine arts. In my free time I work with various mediums including pastels, oil and acrylic paint, colored pencil, charcoal, pen & ink, and graphic software to create paintings and drawings. I love studying the paintings of the Baroque masters but my subject matter ranges from still life to children’s portraits. However, my favorite subject is undoubtedly animals – especially endangered species. I absolutely love working on artwork of animals and as an active volunteer at Mill Mountain Zoo, I try to take as many photos of the zoo animals for reference as possible. I hope to become increasingly active in both the conservation of these magnificent creatures as well as capturing their beauty in my artwork.

My art is my "musical"¯ composition and I've been "composing" most of my life. I was guided early by my grandmother, using many kinds of materials, textures and colors to "compose"¯ a scenic diorama. I have stitched in several media since I was 10 years old. Using thread, fibers and beads, my hands express what I hear in music or see outside my studio window, thus my composition.

In my current work I am creating paintings that index the landscape and nature as abstract expressionist images. I am interested in creating highly subjective works that evade a single interpretation. The paintings are not literal depiction of an external place but are creations born from my memories, imagination, and subconscious - an internal landscape.

A canvas, sculpture, or the time line of new media presents a stage for me to examine the visually driven attributes of light, perspective, color, form, and movement. Past experiences, present environment, imagination, and experimentation with mixed media allow me to echo my passions, peace, or pleasure. Creations from impressions encountered in urban, rural, or figurative life evolve abstractly. Innovative form and color are fashioned from the physical, mental, or spiritual.

As a painter, I give existence to the thoughts and feelings I have about life in visual terms. The stimulus for a painting comes most often from direct observation, seeing common, everyday objects transformed by light, revealing visual discoveries never seen before.

My initial background as an artist was in the commercial art realm. As an undergraduate at Roanoke College, I had focused more on photography and silkscreen prints. Following graduation I worked for a newspaper publication for a few years before turning to oils and watercolor. I have been honing my craft all my life, and exhibiting since 2007.
My current body of work is centered on memory, experience, space and place. The abstracted images are images and scenes from my youth growing up in Southwest Virginia. They are not meant to be literal depictions of place. They are plasticized, altered and arranged to heighten the emotion that I feel for these locations and events.

I am perpetually intrigued with the posiibilities of marrying realism and abstraction, both in theory and application.
While I find beauty in truth, fiction manifests greater expression, especially in the manipulation of human figures, granting permission to break away from real life constraints.

I have a great love for photography. I love taking pictures of wonderful places, people and things and have been into photography for over forty years, but just recently discovered my true passion for photography in the form of HDR (High Dynamic Range). For years I tried to put what I was seeing with my naked eye (light, shadow, color and contrast) on paper. With the discovery of HDR, I have done that. A good photograph must have something to say. A good photograph should make you feel good and possibly invoke some good memories.

Having been formally trained through three years of private lessons many years ago I have been reevaluating my style and subject matter as I re-enter the arts. Primarily I am a landscape artist and prefer to include as subjects old buildings but I do like to delve into other subject matters. I feel that such diversity gives me a feeling of freedom of expression and allows me to channel and tune my skills in ways that I may not further develop with just one style of painting.

Though I gravitate toward realism, I strive for my work to go beyond what is seen with natural eyes. I find myself painting stories into my images, however grand or subtle or simple. Sometimes the story isn't as easy to find, because it is told through the eyes or expressions of the subject in the painting.

My name is Blake Prim. I have lived in Roanoke for two years. Recently moved from Carthage, North Carolina, I have come from a family of educators who are passionate about the arts. We live in a world that not only creates art but is made from art and my body of work revolves around giving back what has been given to me. I am captured by the simple beauty of nature and its miraculous ability to go unnoticed. Many never recognize its true value or care to gain insight into this remarkable world that has been given to us. We have the responsibility to be caretakers of the world around us. If we don't understand our world how can we possibly begin to take care of it? My art is my response to this equation. It's my way of examining our beautiful surrounding that we take for granted.

My work pertains to the idea of consciousness. I am interested in becoming aware of our actions and asking ourselves why we do the things we do. My work is often of a private nature, looking inward to my thoughts and emotions and giving revealing interpretations of myself and my choices, and through my work I may cause others to think inwardly.
My inspiration is derived from the meditation and calmness of creations like sand mandalas and henna tattoos; adornment, patience, meditation, these ephemeral qualities that are more a journey of the mind than of art.

Smith recently located to Roanoke from Orange N.J. Blessed to be given her introduction to the Roanoke art community when a homeless shelter staff member mistook her "fake" pizza for a real one. Gallery 108 gave her, her first long featuring display and she is now showing her work at the Roanoke Main Library. She and her son were, "only passing through," but have decided to stay awhile.

As a self taught artist living at Smith Mountain Lake there is an abundance of inspiring scenery to paint. I like to paint landscapes, flowers and still life and especially skies. The sunsets at the lake are my favorite. The mediums I use are watercolors, acrylic and pastels. For me, painting is a relaxing get away.

Although he is locally known for his detailed portraitures, his subject matter seems to have no limits: townscapes, wildlife, abstracts. Oil is a favored medium but you will also find works in Charcoal, color pencil, and even a dabbling in sculpture.

My interest in art started early. I was sick a lot as a child and to entertain me, my mother used to draw stories for me about her own childhood; that is probably where my interest in art began. I started drawing at an early age, often on walls and my mother's books (which is why my parents began supplying me with lots of paper). Originally, I wanted to be an illustrator-to tell stories through my art; and I think storytelling through art is still what I am after, even if the stories themselves are only in my own mind. I am fascinated by people and the lives I imagine for them, by abandoned dwellings and barns, and any landscapes that seem to have a story behind them. I work in acrylic, oil and watercolor and have several exhibits planned for 2009. I have studied with Peyton Klein, Vera Dickinson and Ann Glover.

The average person, viewing art, responds to either color, subject matter or an emotional attachment. In some ways I attempt to meet one or more of these responses by the choices that I make, concerning my art.

After retiring from teaching school for 30 years, I am now painting and teaching at home in my studio. The beauty of the surrounding valley inspires me. Color is my passion and many of my paintings are done on red backgrounds. My paintings are becoming a spiritual portrait of who I am as my journey through life continues.

It has been my experience, that Art opens the door to creativity, compassion, and Spiritual perspective, as it concerns a wholeness and connectedness to all humanity. To create depth of form thru line, color and values, is a reawakening of a certain perspective that allows us to both "see", and be the object that is "seen".
