Dominique Zelunka captures the power and beauty of movement in her stunning large scale paintings. In this interview with The Artist's Page Dominique tells us a little more about her training and her inspiration.
My main medium is oil on canvas, I work with other mediums too, but I have a very strong feeling with oil...it's more challenging...more natural and more real to me, although I enjoy charcoal, acrylic, watercolor, & ink. I also love to mix different mediums and experience the beauty of all the materials. I chose the medium according to the subject or my feeling at the time of making any art.
Last weekend wasn't the studio tour weekend for just one locality but two! Double the studios, double the driving, and double the talent worth discovering. A feast for the senses!
I do artistic pieces for personal development and exploration but also do commissioned pieces as well, that expand beyond portrait work to landscapes, architecture and abstract. I have had numerous commissions for abstract work that have allowed pieces to be tailored to a specific space. I love taking on commissions because you get to know the people you are creating for, their interests, passions and values. It deepens the meaning the of the work.
Max Marian Kalin is an Uxbridge Ontario photographer and abstract painter with over 40 years of experience in photography. "My primary interest in the art is the deconstruction of the environment." Max takes a few minutes to tell me a little more about himself and his art.
In my work I love to play with the shapes of cities, buildings, people living in boxes, balanced against the shapes of nature. I want my work to be aesthetically pleasing, alluring. People who know me easily recognize my work.
"People don't have to look at art as something costly. Art is everywhere if you just look at things from a different angle. Industrial areas are brimming with amazing design and beautiful lines. You just need to look at things in a slightly different way to see it".
One of the biggest pleasures of creating art is having a home filled with spirit and soul. Living with the finished pieces, (mine and the work of others), makes a home special and unique.
Uxbridge Ontario potter & ceramic artist Vanessa Slater loves making functional pieces that she knows will be enjoyed in someone's hands. "When I go to a friend's house and see a bowl sitting safe high up on a shelf, I feel like it's gone there to die. I want people to enjoy using my pottery. If it breaks I can always make you a different one!"
