No animations for now... otherwise i'll be overwelmed by vj's that want to display their material... the site has only been online for a matter of weeks now... firstly i want to have a good idea how much bandwidth is going to be consumed just running the art gallery... when that has stabilised i can start pondering about more... video is just so demanding for hosting it... dunno... maybe in the future... Dr Spook also asked me and he has an army of Vj's in his group... he alone would cause gigabytes of extra traffic should i feature his work this way....

 

maybe someday.

 

the form is in the psygarden thread, email me if you can't find it, and i'll send you a copy.

Energy painting is an original technique, using a special blend of fluorescent acrylics.

When adding UV light to a normal lighting these paintings unravel a new level of depth.

 

The work presented is hand-painted on canvas, with no computers involved in the making process.

 

 

 

MARC HENSON

United States

Posted Image

The Visionary Eroticism and Political Satire Art of Mark Henson ".

 

Mark's sense of eroticism expresses itself in a less voyeuristic

and more spiritual way than most art associated with human passion.

He is more interested in the merging of souls

than the merging of organs.

 

It is his lifetime self-ordained duty to create a body of work

that is filled with positive imagery surrounding lovemaking

in a culture where sex is often associated with exploitation,

violence and abuse.

He sees the merging of souls as the manifestation

of the cosmic design inherent in all living things.

He calls upon our divinity as natural sensual beings

in harmony with our environment by depicting lovers in all forms.

He defines lovemaking as a revelation more than a thrill,

respectful of the gentle interplay when all creatures are in harmony,

including the elements associated with death and the infinite.

In his vibrant colored oil paintings

he delights in emulating the divine by bringing something out of nothing

into its own sense of existence.

Through these images the deepest parts of our collective soul

are delivered visually

imbued with the core of creation and the love of humanity.

Mark views eroticism and the sex ritual as a natural and exalted state of consciousness.

 

Mark also paints dark side of humanity in his political satires.

They are timely icons of universal fear and global concern.

We are surrounded by negative input by mass media.

The so-called war between the sexes plays an immense role in forming the patterns of our social interactions.

How do we depict love when the most truthful loving acts

are often considered evil or pornographic

by politicians and religious fanatics?

Yet, images of war, competition, attempts at control over each other fill our eyes.

His comic approach is stirring and iconoclastic.

 

Born and raised in California,

Mark spends part of his time living and traveling in the jungles of Costa Rica

where he is creating a retreat for artists,

and Upper Lake, California

where he paints daily in his studio,

cooks exotic food

and acts as a lap chair for two cats

and his sweetheart, Ms. Monti.

 

 

 

ROBERT VENOSA

United States

Posted Image

New York City born, Venosa was transported into the world of fine art in the late 60's after having experimented with psychedelics and having seen the work of the Fantastic Realists - Ernst Fuchs and Mati Klarwein in particular - both of whom he eventually met and studied under. Of his apprenticeship with Klarwein, Venosa says, "What a time (Autumn, 1970) that turned out to be! Not only did I get started in proper technique, but at various times I had Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, Jackie Kennedy and the good doctor Tim Leary himself peering over my shoulder to see what I was up to.

To start of 2006 properly I've once redesigned the site to what is supposed to be a more final layout! I hope you like it because this is the way it's going to look for a while!

 

Because a redesign alone wouldn't be worth a post i've also added FOUR NEW ARTISTS! I'd like to welcome to our art collective:

 

 

Margot Schaefer (Belgium)

Finally i've been able to add a belgian deco artist. Her backdrops are inspired by aboriginal and dot art, do enjoy!

 

 

Dayasakti (Indonesia)

Some mixed style backdrops with some amazing level of details in some. An artist with an amazing potential, i'm looking forward to seeing more of this work.

 

 

Brahma (United States)

One of the long term artists and it looks like he's here to stay. Affiliated with TIP Records he's done cover artwork for numerous cd's and has done deco for some of the most amazing events worldwide.

 

 

Filtro Structures (Italy)

A new talent when it comes to 3D string structures. You'll be hearing a lot more from him as he's starting to find his way to bigger and bigger events to decorate.

 

 

 

If you feel your artwork should be there too and it meets the standards I've been living up to please don't hesitate to get in touch with me, it's an open gallery and i'm always looking for more people who deserve the promotion psygarden can give you!

 

Love & light

I'd like to welcome them to our collective, and thank those that have already been part of it for some time. Psygarden has been growing at a rate I could only dream of when i picked up on the project again less than three months ago.

 

We're working on the traveling gallery and expanding it with even more framed posters by various artists. Posters by Robert Venosa, Alex grey and more of the worlds best visuals artists will soon to be made ready for display at events across europe. Keep your eyes open!

7 Countries are involved, and psychedelics ranging from visuals, to backdrops, digital art and 3D polymer constructions. Definatly worth checking out is the handdrawn geometrics by Astral Works and Maude Art, who never even used a computer to create their artwork!!!
