This allows each viewer to participate in forming the image, so that everyone sees something unique. &lt;http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Viewers project their own unconscious material onto the ambiguous images, as they would in a Rorschach inkblot test. My intention in encouraging this is playful rather than diagnostic or therapeutic. I want viewers to be confronted (and hopefully fascinated) by their own unconscious projections, as I am by mine.”&lt;http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; &lt;http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http:http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/www.discoveroriginalart.comhttp://www.discoveroriginalart.com/&lt;http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/a&gt;&lt;http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/collectors/blog/entryid/145/original-art-viewer-rsquo-s-interpretation&gt;More ...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

In poignant elongated figures the delicate nature of humanity is skillfully revealed. Avril sculpts in clay, and casts her works in limited edition bronze.  Whether working in clay or paint, she is able to translate her considerable skill in realism into a much more fluid expression of the core emotion behind each work, moving as her passion for creating drives her.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/collectors/blog/entryid/144/peaceful-sculpture&gt;More ...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

      <link>http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/collectors/blog/entryid/138/paintings-reflect-vision</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;For Mark Belo, Freedom and Change are Key words to understanding. Living by the beach prompted cosmic visions in him. Many years later discovering a world of rainbow colored deserts and tropic colored desert sunshine, crystal clear red-sea waters and a panoramic landscape of Sinai Mountains. It is an attempt to project his fantasies.  Mark’s work blends with fantastic and esoteric vein, sensibility colors, beauty and aesthetics .&lt;a href="http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/Portals/0/Blog/Files/1/138/Windows-Live-Writer-cebd4c8be022_BE6F-Thinking_abut_the_past_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Thinking abut the past" border="0" alt="Thinking abut the past" src="/Portals/0/Blog/Files/1/138/Windows-Live-Writer-cebd4c8be022_BE6F-Thinking_abut_the_past_thumb.jpg" width="244" height="244" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Thinking about the Past&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/collectors/blog/entryid/138/paintings-reflect-vision&gt;More ...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;   &lt;br /&gt;Brian Brooks was born in Wembley, England in 1950, before moving with his family to the Hertfordshire countryside. His painting style is primarily process-driven, utilizing photography and film as a point of reference rather than as a tool for direct imitation.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;                                                                          &lt;a href="http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/Portals/0/Blog/Files/1/136/Windows-Live-Writer-2eca9c0596d9_14B91-BMB003_Yellow_Roses_web_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="BMB003 Yellow Roses web" border="0" alt="BMB003 Yellow Roses web" src="/Portals/0/Blog/Files/1/136/Windows-Live-Writer-2eca9c0596d9_14B91-BMB003_Yellow_Roses_web_thumb.jpg" width="244" height="203" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Yellow Roses&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=http://www.discoveroriginalart.com/collectors/blog/entryid/136/brian-brooks-joins-discoveroriginalart&gt;More ...&lt;/a&gt;</description>
