Guigen Zha
Bactrian Camel, Oil Painting

2020

About the Item

Artist Comments
A ceramic camel sculpture and a vase with lotus flowers settle on the surface of artist Guigen Zha's realistic piece. These ornaments called Tang Sancai radiate vitality in the painting. "The reference of the Bactrian camel and the pottery draws influence from the oriental art exhibition area of the St. Louis Art Museum," says Guigen. He regards these cultural relics as a symbol of healing.

  • SumFun, Oil Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    "The fun of summer captured in a snapshot in time," describes artist Jeff Fleming. This piece creates its own energy with bright colors and splashing water. Jeff describes his painting style as kinetic impressionism. He begins with a pencil sketch, then with gloved hands applied oil paint using his fingers. Details were later added using brushes and string. Once the paint is dry, he moves his painting to his studio floor where he spontaneously splatters and flings paint across the canvas.


    About the Artist
    Artist Jeff Fleming uses fingerpainting to create exuberant portraits of dogs. Growing up in Southern California, Jeff was first introduced to fingerpainting in kindergarten. He painted through high school and college and won several art awards, including Best of Show in a city wide student competition. After graduating with a degree in journalism and advertising, he went to work as an art director. For the next 40 years, he created print, radio and television ads for a number of top agencies. "After retiring in 2019, the clouds of stress and pressure cleared and allowed me to set my creative energy free," says Jeff. He began developing new techniques focused on the excitement and energy of painting. Today, he uses a variety of methods and tools, including fingerpainting wearing nitrile gloves...

    By Lani Vlaanderen
    Located in Denver, CO
    Lani Vlaanderen's (US based) "Morning Run" is an oil painting that depicts a pinto horse playfully frolicking and running Bio/artist statement: Living in the mountains near Rocky Mountain National Park Lani is never lacking something inspiring to paint, be it a grand sunrise on Long's Peak or a small sparrow perched on a pine branch. All fill her with the desire to put paint to canvas. Her goal is not to replicate what she sees, but to express her emotional response from the source of inspiration visually in paint and convey it to the world. She wants to communicate the awe she feels when in the natural world and the joy she experiences from seeing even the seemingly most insignificant moment in time that will never come again. She strives to convey her belief that all things, all beings, all life and non-life, share equal significance and are essential to the whole. "I began my art quest by taking a few classes at Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design, then enrolled in Kim English's class at the Art Student's Leaque of Denver. After four years with Kim and functioning as his class monitor, I had the opportunity to participate in a painting group with Richard Schmid in Loveland Colorado. I painted there with him for six years. I have taken workshops from such masters as David Leffel, Sherrie McGraw...
