I have been making art since I was probably about 10, and teaching art for almost 20. I love all forms of art, but focus primarily on drawing, painting, and photography. At the present time I have particular obsession with New York City bridges.

Bridges have enabled the development of societies spanning the ages. As primitive as the log fallen over a ravine, the bridge enables communication between two seemingly separate components. It is the the third element which unites the two, creating something much greater than the sum of its parts.
Living in New York I am fortunate to be surrounded by numerous iconic bridges that enabled the development of New York City as a cultural, technological, as well as commercial hub of the world. I am struck by the majesty of the scale of these "gentle giants," imposing their presence over the NY waterways, like veins coursing with life, imbuing the boroughs with life and character.
In my work I tend toward engaging compositions using skewed perspectives to challenge as well as humble the viewer by conveying the extraordinary mass of these structures, forcing the viewer to look with a renewed vision at these amazing feats of modern engineering. Vibrant colors, tones and textures soak the rigid geometries and give life to these otherwise lifeless structures. It is through its utility that the bridge generally has meaning and significance, I am seeking to liberate it from this narrow view and imbue the structure with life.

Kanelstrand- Surreal photography art

I'm Sonya. I go through life collecting moments and turn them into beautiful visual stories.

I used to live in Norway but now I travel the world and collect simple living stories and views. The beauty around has taught me to never go out without my camera because I don't want to miss documenting it. I then spend days turning my photographs into unique pieces of art. I am a photographer, a simplicity writer and author of the blog Kanelstrand Simple Living (http://blog.kanelstrand.com).

I am a book reviewer for Elsevier through one of its imprints Taylor and Francis -- a publisher of high quality photography and digital imaging books. My photography has been shown on international exhibitions and published in magazines on/ and off-line. My photo Burning Clouds was selected as one of the ten best altered images for 2013 according to Smithsonian Magazine.

Emele photography "The tagline is beauty in nature"

I'm Emily, althought I go by Emele online, I'm 27 and English. I'm a self-taught photographer who enjoys taking flower photos, especially macro shots, cats and other animals, scenic views and anything else that happens to be around that catches my eye! I split my time between the UK and the Greek island of Crete - Winters in Crete and Summers in England! I'll shoot anything that captures my eye really, including travel scenes and wildlife but lean towards nature and flowers and capturing the details... Beauty in Nature becoming my tagline. I sell my photography prints at Etsy http://emelephotography.etsy.com and home decor and gift items through Zazzle http://www.zazzle.com/emele1

Antigoni Chryssanthopoulou - "Inogitna"

I am Antigoni, but I go by inogitna and I'm a graphic designer. I live and work in Athens, Greece. I have collaborated with many advertising and publishing firms and various graphic design houses. Beyond my main tasks as Art Director, I also undertake various personal projects as a free lance designer and as a visual artist. I love to come up with ideas and concepts  and create solutions of visual communication. Some of the things that inspire me the most are nature, abandoned industrial buildings, vintage and music.
My big interest in graphic design and in art has remained undiminished through the years while photography has become one more creative outlet for my artistic visions.
