I am a graduate of the North Light Art School. I began my career as a student of fine art at Portland Community College in Portland, Oregon. Throughout my studies I was greatly influenced by the post impressionist cubists such as Cezanne and Braque. I also gravitate toward the color palettes of the Fauvists, especially Andre Derain. I get my inspirations from observing my surroundings and then pushing the envelope a bit further to simplify the subject beyond reality. My inspiration for Newport Gothic came to me when I saw the architectural beauty of the understructure of the Yaquina Bay Bridge in Newport Oregon. My feelings of futility that the common worker is trapped in led to Blue Collar Rut. The interrelationship between the sea, earth and sky led me to paint Glad for Stella as a tribute to Frank Stella, another of my artistic idols. |

The nexus between music and painting and ways of pictorially representing sound and silence, have been the main subjects of my work as an artist since 1980. This exploration has many facets from attempts at a pictorial representation of sound, to the creation of environments (maybe places or landscapes) that result from the sensations, feelings, states of mind and/or visions generated by music. My work has gone through different stages from attempts to illustration of specific musical work to explorations of aspects of the musical structure itself. This is, of course, purely subjective |
Looking at a painting of Peter van Oostzanen one gets the impression that one is looking at a different reality. It is as if one is looking through a window at another world. A world in which other laws of nature apply. Subjects have other functions and human beings act differently than we are used to. This way another world is created. At first sight it looks like the world we live in, but it is clear that that is not the case. |

I love to use bright and vivid watercolors and try to make the best out of soft and glimmering pastels.I sometimes also work with mixed water media, but what makes me most happy is when I manage to create fresh and instant watercolor paintings where the white quality paper and all negative form make important parts of the art work. |

"Painting and drawing, a natural and urgent need to express what I see became serious in the middle fifties. Self taught with much desire, progress was made. In 1964, needing more professional help, I studied with Mr. Cohen in San Diego Calif., who had a studio in Balboa park. Mr. Cohen was 90 years old at that time and as a young man in Paris at the turn of the century had the opportunity to meet Claude Monet and to know and to understand his techniques and insites. Mr. Cohen relayed these techniques to me which was a fascinating adventure and learning process for me. I have never shown my work in galleries, but have sold privately. in the span of these years my paintings are in peoples homes through out the United States and Japan." |
Wandering on an endless art jungle of a network the Internet, more often I saw art schools with a very low level of initial, base training. This situation is usual not only for one country but it’s a reality all over the world. The school of realism today reminds me an old private residence near 80 floor concrete and glass building of computer technologies. The first is cozy and alive the latter is unapproachable and cold. Nevertheless, old artists ‘masterpieces are still of great value but even the most talented works in a digital format lose their novelty and urgency very quickly. |

Gemma is known for her attention to detail and her skill with the colored pencils. |
Welcome to my gallery! These images are based on a kind of math called fractal geometry, and are created by repeating simple patterns billions and trillions of times.
