Santana 1

Jerry Blank is a wonderful artist who is represented online at Discover Original Art.

Jerry Blank’s current theme in his world premiere historical tribute series The Art of Music captures the movement and sounds of the vibrating beats and rhythms of America and its music greats throughout the decades in jazz, rock and country, in vibrant colors and bold stokes and with all that jazz!
                                         
Each work of art pays a symbolic and historical tribute to the immortal musical giants like Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Billie Holiday, and Jerry’s Rat Pack - tributes to Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr., Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, The Beatles, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Johnny Cash, Santana, Jerry Garcia, Janis Joplin, Elvis and John Stewart of Kingston Trio. This highly sought after and collected artistic musical tribute painting series, captures the character and musical soul of each artist.

Jerry's raison d’être is to provoke and inspire the viewer's visual memory of these great artists and their music and also to peak the curiosity of a younger generation with these grand salutes to these great musicians and entertainers.
 
Blank’s watercolors, acrylics and oils are in prestigious private and public collections throughout North America and Europe.

Angel of Egypt                                                           

Artist Thomas Keller  began creating art as the result of an spiritual awakening in 2001. Prior to that time he was a construction contractor and has continued to be so. When he began painting he felt like a river of creativity was flooding through him and had to be released.

Thomas Keller's paintings are mostly pastels, a medium he was drawn to naturally. Thousands of crystals of pure color comprise pastels so a painting is a crystal field reflecting light.

He then was drawn to free sculpt wood and since moving to Atlanta, Ga., a city carved out of an ancient forest, He again felt compelled to release this river of creativity. Wood is a very feminine medium with it's continuous grain curves and inherent strength.

Thomas has wonderful sculptures that are graceful at Discover Original Art.

In Dreamland

Beata Belansky Demko Joins Discover Original Art

Discover Original Art welcomes artists Beata Belansky Demko, an artist who resides in Hungary.  We are impressed with the texture and depth of her paintings.  In Dreamland, pictured here, is a deeply introspective piece.

Beata writes about herself and her art:  "I am a self-taught artist living as a wife and mom with my little family. In the last year I’ve spent all my spare time painting my emotions, my experiences, my feelings.

One thing drives me, to live the inner silence. Greater silence or peace - before taking a paintbrush - I had never experienced. So my paintings can be considered as byproducts of seeking my inner peace. I have no intention with my paintings. I don't want to make other people happy, change the world or create something beautiful and good. I just want to find myself... inside.

The amazing thing is that this happens many times. I don't say that every time I paint I get into a meditative state. Neither do I say that the miracle happens every time. But it happens often enough to take my paintbrushes again and again and lose myself in my inner world. Who already experienced this knows that you can become dependent upon it and chase this tingly inner peace almost obsessively, this nothing that you can find inside. If during my seeking something for myself an appeal to others is created , it is a double pleasure for me. These times I sell them with pleasure."

Constantine has participated in numerous exhibitions of art in Ukraine, Hungary, and Croatia.  His main theme is still life as a beauty of things which tells us about our past.  The combination of perfect technique and philosophical thoughts and moods make his paintings unforgettable.

Rony Shubich grew up in a world of art in Mexico, a country that provided her with colorful, complicated backgrounds and people that spread across her canvases.   Her work "protest the dis-illusions of growing up in a complicated, overwhelming city like Mexico City The reflect the colors of the arts and crafts of Mexican culture.  They echo the shouts of children on the streets.  They whisper the hidden sadness of our secret selves disguised as the clowns that made us smile when we were growing up."
Rony's work has a style that is very individual.  She has had many exhibitions and is represented in private collections all over the world.

DiscoverOriginalArt.com is proud to represent these world-renowned artists. 
We are representing other international artists and will update continually.  Watch for our press releases and newsletters.

Who:  Brian Wiltshire and Susan Taylor, Residents of Tierra Verde and St. Petersburg, Florida

What:  New Business:  Online Art Gallery: Discover Original Art  �

website:  http://www.discoveroriginalart.com

 

 

Starting a business in this economy may seem to be risky but Brian Wiltshire (Tierra Verde) and Susan Taylor (St. Petersburg) , both art connoisseurs and collectors, have confidence that people still love and appreciate fine art and want to be able to collect affordable original art and photographs.�Discover Original Art is an online art business they started first to represent several good friends who are exceptional artists being successful within their geographical areas, even with their own artist websites, but lacking global visibility.  Out of that grew the idea to start the online art gallery.

 

Discover Original Art is dedicated to being the link, via the internet, between artists and art collectors.  The goal is to broaden the opportunity for artists to sell original art; and for potential collectors, seeking exceptional art, to add original works of art to their personal galleries. We can link to the artist websites if neccessary.

 

The site is easy to maneuver and the collector can view paintings and photographs and can easily order a beautiful piece of art.  The art works may be rendered in many different media, dimensions and price ranges. No longer does the collector have to go to many galleries but can select art from the comfort of home or office.   The artist can show art in an online gallery without the hassles of transporting artwork to one site.  And there is the convenience of being on the worldwide web!

 

Hoping to have the gallery online by April 2, the two partners soon found how complicated a good website that is secure yet accessible is to design.  But they persevered and the site is now up and running!  They are proud that their site is different.  “We wanted people to arrive at the site and feel as if they were entering a real gallery so we used a gallery store front as the home page.”

 

Local and national artists have registered and more artists are being added weekly.  The partners encourage everyone to check their website frequently for updates, blogs, and additional artists and artwork.
