Imagine the Imagination

*gromyko:icongromyko: reports, October 4
Art is distinctively a product of imagination, of that faculty of the mind which has to do with perceiving images, —the image of one thing in the form of another. While science, therefore, may find a single form interesting in itself, art, at its best, never does. It looks for another form with which the first may be compared

TRADITIONAL ART DAY: red-lights - artist feature

`sbaraci:iconsbaraci: reports, October 19, 2007
*red-lights to be honest besides being an amazing emotive artist, has been a best of friend anyone could ever ask for. She stood by me through every problem, helped me get up when i was down, and gave me quite few advices that will last me a lifetime. There are two very distinct types of her work so in this feature I will try to explain both as two separate enteties, but both are still extreemly emotive. She has this passion for art many people could only dream of. She lives it, breathes it, it is a big part of who she is. She creates on daily basis, and has this incredible drive to get these emotions out on canvas, but to share it with others as well. She is a star ascending very fast, pushing towards with very distinct style. She plays with textures, colours, every day trying something new, a new combination, a new composition. In last year she has created over 400 new amazing works which is something to be commended. She is also high selling exhibiting artist, and many people who actually own her works, including myself are proud to have them on their walls, and to admire them on daily basis.

*red-lights work is incredibly free, and that freedom is expressed in her abstracts. She works on multipanneled pieces, that are more than just decorative. She plays with swirls and splashes, multiple layers of strong colours.

Red Zen Sun Like many of her abstracts this work shows incredible passion, explosion and strength. It is full of movement, it is like universe created and destroyed all at once. She uses bold combinations of earthy tones, combined with metallics to create a composition that is hard to be forgotten. It moves and burns, it consumes from within, like supernova exploding right there in front of viewer.

Jewles of the Sky This is another amazing abstract where one has to go to full view to be able to appreciate its full beauty. It melts, swallows, like a current of water, flows, carrying incredible detail and light. It pulsates, mesmerises, arises and carries the viewer to new dimensions.

Easterisland Dream Escape I know where this painting came from, conjured deep down from *red-lights memories of happy times away. It is a happy place where she retreats to all the time when things get hard, where she gathers the strength to be able to take next step forward. It shows her strength not only as an artist, but as a mother, and a woman, that still nourishes a child within her. It is fully free from all the bounds, it floats like a dream, a distant memory, that one tries to hold onto but it escapes through the fingers.

*red-lights also works on amazing nudes. To be honest painting and drawing nudes are one of her bigger passions. She gets lost in them, revealing unintentionally all those deep hidden things within her.

Epiphany - nude movement no. 1 Working in monochrome, *red-lights paints this incredible woman, that is self actualised. It is as if she took her whole soul and portrayed it, summing not only her future but also her past, who she is within. Its beautifull, dissapears in shadows, blurred, obscure, passionate.


Pastel Nude sketch no. 2 I came to love the freedom of movement in this one. Sometimes the most simple things are most difficult to create, and what :devred-lights has created, is not only beautifull and elegant, it is also touching, and alive.

:iconred-lights: is defenitely an artist that needs to be watched out for, she always has a suprise or two ready up her sleeve, you never know what she will bring out next. She is a star in rising, and I am sure a lot of people will know her work one day.

Oh wow Sandra.... I don't know what to say I am deeply moved, humbled, emotional....not enough adjectives to describe how I feel!

Mostly :blush:

Thank you so much, you are a wonderful friend and I appreciate your vision and understanding.

I am a blubbering mess of humility....
