Alysha Grace Marko Animal Paintings
American, b. 1988
New York City-based artist, Alysha Marko is a figural and abstract painter from Central New Jersey. Growing up, Alysha moved around the US which allowed her social personality to butterfly. With a father who documented everything, Alysha grew comfortable in the face of a camera. Alysha loved the adventure of being on the go and the revolving door of new people to meet. She loved singing, dancing, and several different sports which all taught her to be outgoing. “I love being around people and experiencing new things. I think that's really where it may have come from was moving around a lot, just being able to pick up and move every two years”
Later, Alysha went to the University of Massachusetts Amherst and graduated from Seton Hall University with a degree in psychology.
This comfortability in the spotlight flourished into a career in modeling and acting. While in LA, Alysha pursued modeling and acting where she was featured in ELLE Magazine, Playboy, several films, and theatre productions. Alysha moved on to become an abstract and figural artist based in New York City. Her work is full of color, and movement, and is often inspired by the world around her. Portraits of herself and her friends are just two of the common representations seen in her work
“Looking in the mirror and painting myself is a way to figure myself out, but also, I like to paint my friends if they're there. I'm always with myself, so it's easy to pick up a mirror and just have a subject and study. Lately, I've been trying to uncover these things by ripping apart the image of you.”
Heavily influenced by her psychology study, Alysha has used her experiences to uncover herself and how she displays herself in the art world. Themes of narcissism, vanity, essence of the individual, and sense of speech are where Alysha’s work is born. The use of texture, color, art historical tradition, and psychological figures combine to create paintings like Rodin in the Sun (2023), Candyland (2019), and Diamond Dice (2018). In 2019, along with partner Renelio Marin, Alysha started the UEast75 gallery that lived just a few blocks away from The Met, The Institute of Fine arts, and the Frick Museum. Now called AMRM gallery, Alysha has come to represent many different artists in a two-story gallery space. Angela China, David Richardson, and Nancy Pantirer are just three of the talented artists represented at the gallery.to

Nugzar Avtandilovich Kahiani was born in Poti, Georgia in 1952. He studied at the Art College named after Nikoladze. Then he went to serve in the Soviet Army from1970 to 1972. After completing his military service he entered the Stieglitz St. Petersburg State Academy of Art and Industry at the faculty of artistic metal, from which he graduated in 1986. During his studies, he has been actively engaged in painting. His favorite artists are Gauguin, El Greco, Botticelli, Turner and Picasso.
Works of artistic stone
He worked also with stone, cornelian and onyx. But his soul gravitated to bright and blustery color, and so he has became engaged in painting. At first his paintings were quiet, with muted tonal gamma. The color image was built on the play of hues and halftones. Such a careful elaboration of color educates the taste, sharpness and delicacy of vision. Gradually, the painter became more experienced, and his paintings acquired assurance and power of maturity, blooming in colorful brilliancy.
Nugzar's color preferences
The color of Nugzar’s paintings is deep and multi-layered. It is woven of infinite number of hues and filled with light. At first sight it may be difficult to recognize the shapes in the play of flickering color dabs. The figures appear gradually, they draw the first breath just before our eyes, crystallizing from the color heap. The painter is attracted by major tonality and motives that years ago could be called “the gallant feasts” - repasts, assiduities, music parties, and airings. After somewhat daemonic, infernal imagery of early paintings, it has appeared the theme of “Le joie de vivre,” the joy of life.
Source of inspiration
Born in the ancient Kolkhida, he keeps the blissful pagan feel of entirety and completeness of being. It is embodied almost literally in his favorite personage auroral gorgeous-bodied beauty of a girl. He grants these forms even to Olympian inhabitants - Aphrodite, Athene, Arthemide, let alone the Bacchants. I remember unwittingly that Niko Pirosmani similarly painted on his impoverished buckrams the luxurious prince repasts and languid, elephantine beauties.
Working style
But his style is not bounded by grotesque parody, as well as the irony is not the only aspect of his world outlook. In his landscapes we can catch the ecstatic admiration with Nature. In contradistinction to his favorite impressionists, he never paints from nature and never bears in mind the particular place. It is just a blooming Earth, studied very closely, so that the trees are cut by the edges of the painting, and at the same time it is a bird’s eye view revealing infinite, boundless spaces. Nougzar says that the landscape for him is first of all a color ensemble. He can just leaf through the illustrated journal, nourishing his eye with color in various combinations, and so get the impulse to create a ‘physical’ landscape image. Probably, his landscapes are no less fantastical than his figure compositions, but such is his talent, his mission - to make the world more beautiful and gentle than it is in reality.
