Alain Poncon French artist painter exhibits his work and those of his friends, painters and poets, in his Paintings and Poems gallery.

Ansatu. Painting is enormous. Like all creation. It is a vast mountain of the unknown. “Each time I undertake a new canvas, I want to put everything there: lines, works, colors, and solid planes that spontaneously grab all the space. At that moment thousands of roads open before my eyes. I wish to go further, to suspend myself in these infinitely transmutable forms, to this beginning light with these nights and days mingled as in memory. Sometimes beings appear, men, women or animals; they make a place for themselves in the canvas. I make a place for them; I make plants grow on a flat ochre patch, skim the light from another, and, little by little, the space around them and through them articulates itself, defines itself, yet within it float some remains of chance, some pockets of incoherence; these are so that one won’t forget the mystery on which everything rests.” 

Anthina Pazolli. Online Art Exhibition features an extensive collection of abstract paintings on canvas and painted drawings on paper in which color is central. Also on show are drawings of the body.

Apostolos.    Greek artist using traditional methods of painting such as oil, color combined with egg and tempera on prepared wooden panels according to Byzantine and Renaissance techniques. He also combines traditional techniques together with various image and video processing computer programs to create images and audiovisual forms called Omnimedial Images. 

Artnet. The art world online.

Bas Sebus.  Dutch painter.  The content of his images originates from philosophical and literary sources, resulting in paintings with ‘an idea’ and a highly communicative appearance.

Bella Gallery. Good collection of paintings by Picasso, Braque, Dali, Leger, Malevich, Chagall, Hopper, Modigliani, Klimt, Miro, Kandinsky, Klee, Ernst,  Chirico, and Magritte.

Brian Lambert. Pen and ink wash paintings of buildings and villages.

Bob Barron. I have no idea when I begin as to what is going to happen. The material itself dictates what is going to emerge. Co lour is kept minimal as an alternative to the high gloss of most modern advertising imagery and also to emphasize the surface and texture of the work and, I hope, to enhance its contemplative feel. 

Carol Ann Cain. Large, acrylic paintings of the bogs in Northwest Florida by artist Carol Ann Cain. 

Caroline Dangerfield. Finished paintings evoke many associations and are often reminiscent of aerial views and landscapes. 

Charles Harrington.  A signature member of American Watercolor Society and National Acrylic Painters Association, his subject matter is usually landscape, often including buildings or other man made structures. For a preview of his work, see his exhibit in ARCART on this site.

Cheryl McClure. Abstract and non-objective paintings, and mixed media collage from a Texas artist.  

Chris Foster.  Crinklage.

DAM. Digital Art Museum is intended for the enjoyment of all visitors, curators and collectors, scholars of art, and for an emerging generation of digital artists wishing to understand a 50-year heritage of innovation and experimentation. 

Daniel Wheeler.  California based artist. 

David Novak.  His abstract and non-objective paintings exercise the foundations of Abstract Expressionism — both camps — gesture and color field, separately and in combinations. He wanders the polarities that define simple-complex, modulated-flat, brush-no brush, hot color-cold color, hard edge-soft edge, and further polarities that differentiate AE and Minimalist philosophy. 

Design Addict. Resource for modern, post-modern and contemporary design of the 20th-21st centuries where you'll find information on designers and producers, on furniture, lighting, dinnerware and accessories.

Dexigner Design Portal. Dexigner Design Portal delivers latest design news, events, exhibitions, conferences, and design competitions.

dkzn/dickson. Great illustrations and use of figure-ground. They are fun.

Gerhard Mantz. German digital artist

Gerzabek Artist Gallery. Hungarian Artist in Australia. Used to be another Architect

Guggenheim. All museums 

Hans Jörg Glattfelder  By the term of methodical constructivism, Glattfelder tries to indicate a direction which could be taken by that artistic research which continues to relay on the principles of the historically inveterate experience of concrete art and constructivism.

Internet Art Resources. Gateway to art and artists, galleries and exhibitions. Up-to-date information on current and future art shows, emerging artists and world-renowned masters in the fine arts as well as modern artisans working in every imaginable medium, including wood, glass, metal and stone.

Jackson Dembar. New York abstract painter's website, featuring his stunning acrylic on canvas works.

Jackson Pollock by Miltos Manetas original design by Stamen.

Jeanette Pasin Sloan. She works in the great still-life tradition of Western art, but takes a distinctly modernist approach to design and color, employing bold shapes, distorting reflections (including on ocassion her self-portrait) and vertiginous arrangements of patterned fabrics. Her works have developed from placid groupings of everyday objects to the recent Balancing Act series presenting objects in magisterial disarray, their effect approaching abstraction. Absolutely great work.

Joanne Mattera. For years she has described her painting as lush minimalism. New York artist.

Jon Foster. Illustrations and sketches

Josh Spear. JoshSpear.com emerged in 2004 from the back of a Journalism 1001 class. Josh was disappointed with the way major academics ignored the blog-phenomena as a credible form of media. This blog began as a place to catalog those things he saw from a wide range of sectors both online as he surfed the web and offline as he travelled around the globe; he began writing daily about things he liked, reviewing products, ideas, people or places that inspired him. Today, the blog is a daily source of inspiration for marketers, brand managers, advertising executives, and a wide range of everyday people from around the world who love to stay ahead of the curve.

Julie Karabenick. In the paintings from my ongoing Compositions series, I limit myself to rectilinear forms—primarily squares and rectangles. To maximize compositional legibility and thus the focus on the relations among forms and colors, each shape is painted a single hue in a hard-edged, uninflected manner. With each painting, I rediscover the great freedom and directness of expression that are possible through restricted formal means.

Karen Jacobs. Mixed media canvas paintings, as well as encaustics and monotypes.

Kenjilo Nanao. His paintings are elegant, his message eloquent. His facility with the medium and the aesthetic flowing from it embraces both the Japanese and American heritages of which it is born. Kenji's work represents a rare level of sophistication in all respects.

Louvre Museum. Paris, France

Manfred Mohr.    Pioneer in the use of the computer for creativity. He uses a cube as the basic element and subjects it to transformation to produce painting and drawings. 

Mark Lovett.  Although self taught, Mark he has engaged in figure drawing of live models, and experimented with various techniques in oil, acrylic, palette knife and brush.

Metropolitan Museum of Art. New York

Michael Schlicting. Acrylic, watercolor and mixed-media paintings from this award-winning artist as well as posters, prints and his workshop schedule.

Mike Bernard.  What attracts me most is the pattern of buildings, boats and similar features in a scene. I build a painting by putting in blocks of colour to develop a pattern which is pleasing to my eye in colours which are harmonious, bringing in feelings of spontaneity, freshness and freedom.

Minus Space.  Reductive art.

MoMA. Museum of Modern Art, New York 

Monika Lassak. Lives and works in Vienna and North-Rhine/Westphalia.

Monkdogz Urban Art. International art network

Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects. Really creative work

Peggy Ferris. Her paintings are composed of abstract, nonrepresentational hard-edged forms that suggest a feeling, mood, or energy associated with one of life’s random captured moments.

Petra Lemmerz. Works for the instant, for this disputed, contradict ional place in time. 

Phylotaxis for Seed by Jonathan Harris.  Phylotaxis is an exploration of the space where science meets culture.

Pompidou Centre.  Paris, France

Rebecca Silus.  Her work portrays elements of the modern landscape that are stand-ins for deeply rooted symbols of our cultural identity. 

Robert Genn. The Painter's Keys Community is an excellent resource site for artists. Robert is a well known Canadian artist who publishes a bi-weekly newsletter about art. 

Ronald Davis.  Artist, geometrician, abstract illusionist, lyrical abstractionist 

Rodolfo Cuesta. Young Spanish artist

Saatchi Gallery.  Provides an innovative forum for contemporary art, presenting work by largely unseen young artists or by established international artists whose work has been rarely or never exhibited in the UK.  

Salvador Dali: painting the fourth dimension. Phillip Coppens convinced me that the Surrealist painter Dali who is largely seen as an eccentric, money-hungry artist has been portrayed incorrectly. Such three dimensional descriptions do not capture the visionary who tried to paint the fourth dimension on his two-dimensional canvas. Worth reading.

Steve Heimann.  His sources of iconographic images of primitive man, science and post-modern life serve as his inspiration and is instrumental in transforming something mysterious into something tangible.

Sodaplay. Interesting website.

Strandbeest.  For the last ten years, Theo Jansen has been occupied with the making of a new nature. Not pollen or seeds but plastic yellow tubes are used as the basic material of this new nature. He makes skeletons which are able to walk on the wind. Eventually he wants to put these animals out in herds on the beaches, so they will live their own lives. 

Tate Online. Online British and International Contemporary Art

The-artists.org. Major modern & contemporary visual artists and art, each artist with portrait, brief biography, links to articles, essays and artist interviews; original art, limited edition art prints, photography and poster art, paintings, multimedia and artists' books. 

The Cool Hunter-ART. It explains itself.

Tim Prentice. In my current work in kinetic sculpture, I am trying to concentrate on the movement, rather than the object. I take it as an article of faith that the air around us moves in ways which are organic, whimsical, and unpredictable. I therefore assume that if I were to abdicate the design to the wind, the work would take on these same qualities. The engineer in me wants to minimize friction and inertia to make the air visible. The architect studies matters of scale and proportion. The navigator and sailor want to know the strength and direction of the wind. The artist wants to understand its changing shape. Meanwhile, the child wants to play.

Trish Booth. High contrast and vivid colors make her landscapes surreal and hyper-real.

Universe by Jonathan Harris. Universe is a system that supports the exploration of personal mythology, allowing each of us to find our own constellations, based on our own interests and curiosities. Everyone's path through Universe is different, just as everyone's path through life is different. Using the metaphor of an interactive night sky, Universe presents an immersive environment for navigating the world's contemporary mythology, as found online in global news and information from Daylife. Universe opens with a color-shifting aurora borealis, at the center of which is a moon, and through which thousands of stars slowly move. Each star has a specific counterpart in the physical world — a news story, a quote, an image, a person, a company, a team, a place — and moving the cursor across the star field causes different stars to connect, forming constellations. Any constellation can be selected, making it the center of the universe, and sending everything else into its orbit.

Veronique Wirth. Transitory and visual paintings. French

Wassily Kandinsky. A Review by Mark Harden of the exhibition "Kandinsky: Compositions", organized by Magdalena Dabrowski and on display at the Los Angeles County Art Museum until September 3, 1995. Great images of the work.

Whitney Museum of American Art. New York

William Dick. Geometric abstract paintings inspired by both ancient tribal symbols and a fascination with the geological transformation of the landscape. Each painting evolves out of itself, layer on layer, transforming and growing in its physical and illusionary historical depth. He has always drawn on ancient symbols from his own Scottish background, using the symbols, circles, concentric circles, spirals etc, all common in Pictish/ Celtic Art, to convey something of the magic and religious function that art once held in this culture. 

WOTart. Hundreds of quality artists websites, all in one place. Art, Painting, Sculpture, Drawing, Illustration.
