New Artist Fair Feature - Marinela Caldarus

 

Marinela is a passionate artist who creates works full of movement and colour. She says "A good painting should capture your attention for a long time and for me a good painting is that one that express movement, sends you visual messages and that fills your mind with excitment and that wow."

The beauty of spontaneous lines, inspiration from Orthodox culture, symbolism and ornaments represent the philosophy of her work.

She has had many commissions to paint Orthodox churches and this has developed her skills for painting quite quickly, expressive figures, decorativism and self confidence in painting huge areas of empty walls. 

Marinela is exhibiting her art work at the New Artist Fair! 

New Artist Fair Feature - Mark Powell

Since graduating from Huddersfield University, in which he accidentally enrolled himself onto the fine art course (but haven't we all done that at least once), Mark has had shows across the UK and the US. His practice centers around his beautiful and detailed drawing, for which he will use a biro pen on paper or envelopes he finds, and the painting of whatever slips into his mind at any particular time. This can often seem abstract and unrelated, though this is never the case.

Mark will be displaying his fantastic art work at the New Artist Fair!

New Artist Fair Feature - Aisling Fegan

Aisling Fegan was born in Ireland in 1985 (just like me! Though I was in '86, so feel like an old granny o' course). She studied Model making and Design for Film and Theatre in The National Film School of Ireland. For a number of years Aisling has been working as a full time as a model maker.

She is now based right here in London where she continues to paint daily.  Aisling is incredibly passionate about art, and her recent work is described as illustrative pop art with nod to the style of graffiti art. Aislings current project is building toward her first solo exhibition in 2012. Her current Project entitled URBAN CULTURE is a study of People, Expressions, and Street Culture.

Aisling will be exhibiting her fantastic art work at the New Artist Fair, under a week away now!  

New Artist Fair Feature - Lisa Andrews

Lisa is a British artist with an established working studio in the gardens of her home. There she has covered a diverse range of subject matter and developed her expertise working in oil on canvas. However, it Lisa's my love of travel and the inspiration in the diversity of humankind that has led her to cover a range of fascinating studies from the media fuelled obsession with celebrity culture, to the calm reflective nature of the Dalai Lama.

Lisa only returned to painting 18 months ago after a 13 year gap. Her work has been reviewed by the Daily Mirror Art critic, Martin Newman, and she has exhibited with a number of respected international artists, including Mark Demsteader and Paul Lemmon.

New Artist Fair Feature - Nick Peart

Nick Peart, a young English chap, is an artist living and working in London. His work explores the subconscious and the conveying of his emotions. He was once asked to describe his work, and he replied, ''I paint my feelings''. For him this is an integral part to understanding his work and its perpetual development.

When not painting, Nicholas writes poetry which he writes in the same way as he paints; subconsciously and spontaneously, and expressing what he currently feels. Nick has also travelled widely. He spent two years travelling across Latin America
Some of his influences include Jackson Pollock, Pablo Picasso, Edvard Munch, Willem De Kooning, Pierre Bonnard, the Boyle Family, Richard Long and the works of the Huichol people in Mexico.
