Artist Cindy Roe
"Admiral" by Cindy Roe
Award winning artist Cindy Roe has been painting for 25 years. Ms. Roe’s art has always focused on her reverence of nature and mans place in it. “My greatest pleasure is when I feel connected to the world we live in. I love experiencing the unique synergy of mind, body and spirit with nature. I’m compelled to capture it in my art.” And she does capture this synergy in her highly regarded seascapes and landscapes for which she is regularly commissioned. Ms. Roe’s art has been recognized nationally. She was honored by the national John Steinbeck center in Salinas, California for her painting of California agriculture, and many of her works have been featured in exhibits and art institutions across the country. In 2000, Cindy and her family moved from New York to San Francisco and in 2006 moved backto New York.

Olive Reich

Olive Reich has for many years studied the intricate colors, shapes and patterns of nature. Olive has etched out her own intriguing style. As for her illusive media, she says, “The beauty of transparent watercolors is that you can play with areas, designing them and letting the glow move through your painting.” Olive has Hampton Photo, Art and Framingnumerous awards to her credit.  As Robert Henri stated, “Each man must take the material he finds at hand,...and then express in his art whatever is the cause of his pleasure.” Olive’s hope is that the cause of her pleasure is expressed through her work, and in turn conveyed to the viewer who can momentarily be transformed in some significant way.  What more beautiful gift than to participate in a artist’s  vision.

"I believe that the real purpose of art is the state of caring. I want to take those who look at my work away from the anxiety of worldly upsets and problems, and give them some joy. Every day the media barrages us with multiple terrible events that create stress and sadness within us. I want my paintings to give viewers a chance to see things in order and goodness. To create a reality of beautiful colors, patterns, lights, darks, and rhythm together creating a joyful entity. We need spiritually to take more time to appreciate the wonders of nature and the ordinary beauty of everyday things. I hope in some small way that I have been successful in this purpose."

Photography by Laurie Barone-Shafer
Nowadays just about anyone can take a good quality photographs with a digital camera. Or take a few hundred pictures and the chances are few will be good, and even one or two outstanding.

Here are a few tips, tricks and techniques on how to make art print poster ready photographs and print ready digital files. Don’t get overwhelmed, there is a lot of information here, but a lot of it is just intuitive. Well, a bit of patience will always help.

First thing – Photo Size

If you taking a digital photo of you family or friend the largest size you would print is usually 5 by 7 inches, maybe 8 by 10 at the most. Even small size digital photographs (2MB or less) are ‘good enough’ to create a decent print. But if you want to create prints that are 16 by 20, 20 by 24 inches or larger you need more pixels (in pixels 20 by 24 inches photo is actually about 40 times larger than 3 by 4 inches photo assuming they have the same resolution).

 
Learning to Paint Watercolors

Watercolor is an easy, fun medium for creating art.  Color theory, composition and design can be explored freely with watercolor paint, paper, and brushes.  Several techniques may be used with watercolors for varying effects including painting wet on wet, wet on dry, layering washes, and more.

Watercolor paper comes in cold press, hot press, and rough.  Rough paper has the most texture, and its hills and valleys can result in interesting effects when paint is added.  Hot press is the smoothest and has the finest texture.  Cold press has a moderate amount of texture and is the paper most commonly chosen by watercolor artists.

Watercolor paper comes in several weights ranging from 90 lb. to 300 lb. based on the pounds per ream of paper.  Most artists prefer to use at least 140 lb. paper.  Papers vary somewhat between manufacturers, so sampling different papers is advisable.  Paper can be purchased in pads, in blocks or in large sheets.  The large sheets are usually the most economical and can be torn into whatever size is desired.
