JAXPORT Gallery - Auroral Whimsy: Galina Dykhne, Troy Eittrem and Mariana Pittman
Show:
Aug 6 through Sep 14, 2012
Reception
Thursday Aug 9, 2012 from 5 pm - 7 pm
This is by far one of the most interesting shows I have curated for JAXPORT Gallery. It is bright and fun with international flavor. Each of the artists brings a fresh approach. While the artwork is different, the cohesive element is enjoyment. - Meredith Fordham Hughes, Curator
Galina Dykhne
Galina Dykhne is a multi-talented designer, originating from Riga, Latvia. Her artistic endeavors include women’s apparel design, interior design, floral design, sculpture and painting. She works from home and continues to improve her skills, developing a new style of art and design. She enjoys showing her work in different Florida venues and is currently working on a project with Lowes and Hobby Lobby. In 2012, she plans to open an art gallery.
Troy Eittrem
Several years ago Troy gave up his large studio, now working from his own images in Adobe Photoshop and llustrator. He is drawn to naïve artists, a catchall term for folk, primitive / aboriginal, mentally challenged, and children, usually ignore or are unaware of traditional perspective techniques. Their less than realistic rendering often results in a telling far more heartfelt and satisfying than classical ideals. Through humor and sometimes irreverence he uses fantasy creatures and abstract or surreal landscapes to investigate the “inscape” – the interior landscape – the distinctive design that constitutes the psyche and individual identity of the artist.
Mariana Pittman
Mariana was raised between Chicago, IL and Santiago, Chile. She fell in love with art as a child, marvelled at the Picasso paintings displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago and started painting and drawing endlessly after school as her favorite pastime. She pursued art as a career at the University of Chile, obtaining her B.A. in Fine Arts specializing in Painting and Photography.
“My artistic quest always starts with images that I like to represent in an oniric and poetic way. I love the vibrancy of colors and like to transmit strong and lively energy through them. As I love to connect my visual two dimensional art with poetry, the recognizable image or figurativism is still
very important to me.”
