Heaven's Gate, Jazz Bardo. Mixed Media Contemporary Neo-Classicism
By Sax Berlin
Located in Brecon, Powys
Bardol Thodol literally means liberation through hearing and comes from The Tibetan Book of the Dead. Bardo is the transitional state between death & rebirth. Lovers of jazz and music in general will be all too aware of how one can be transported to this suspended state when listening to music. This state is expressed beautifully in the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and here we quote directly from it
"remember the clear light, the pure clear white light...............Let go into the clear light, trust it, merge with it. It is your own true nature".

Firebird: Ashes to Ashes. Contemporary Figurative Oil Painting
By Sax Berlin
Located in Brecon, Powys
Sax Berlin "Firebird: Ashes to Ashes" The Firebird - half formed, half realised, rises from the ashes of creation to take his place for eternity. Berlin is a highly symbolic artist, almost metaphysical in his work; this piece is no exception; his Firebird in this portrayal symbolises the re-birth of acting. Swirling in the maelstrom there's a three dimensional quality to this painting, rich shades of red writhe behind the figure who has been forged in the heat, delicate, earthly greens intimate the cooling dust and the Firebird quietly waits. His golden collar reflects the fires like a mirror and affixes itself, becoming a part of the organic whole.

Christ Pantocrator" After an Icon in the style of the Moscow School
Located in Segovia, ES
"Christ Pantocrator". After an Icon in the style of the Moscow school (15th century). Somewhat similar to that of Rublev.
Author: Oliver Samsinguer
Egg tempera and gold leaf on gesso and on wood.
Dimensions; (H) 42 x (W) 33.5 x (D) 3.5 cm.
(H) 16.54 x (W) 13.19 x (D) 1.38 in.
This is how the artist sums up the technique used by him to create the icon:
“The aim of these steps is to create a durable painting. The icon is eternal.
The first step is to choose a support, traditionally made of wood, from the center of the trunk to avoid warping it. For this purpose, two hardwood bolts were often used on the back to give the picture panel additional stability.
Often a frame is milled out. Then the image carrier is sanded smooth and now 12 or 14 thin layers of gesso are applied and sanded smooth as well.
Then the preliminary drawing is applied and the drawing board is prepared with a special preparation called bolus. This bolus can be polished to a high gloss. Afterwards, the gold leaf is
"shot" with special brushes. It dries up within a few hours and can now be polished with an agate. Gold leaf is real 24-carat gold .
Now, the actual process of painting begins. Egg tempera is made fresh from egg yolk, water, and a little vinegar. This is used to prepare the color pigments.
Tempera painting is done in numerous layers from dark to light.
When the icon is finished, it is left to dry for a few months and varnished with a special varnish called Olifa made from boiled linseed oil and other ingredients”.
