English painter Thomas Donaldson takes the familiarity of the portrait/nude and abstracts it to the point of imperfection and awkwardness. This makes it so that the closer one gets, the more irregular it appears—an unassuming arrangement of blotches and textures. –––––––––––––––––––––– “Crouching male figure”, 2019 DM for Inquiries . . . . . . #thomasdonaldson #oilpainting #contemporaryart #figurativeart #portrait #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #thedirectedartmodern #damtalentedartist #artinmiami #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollectors #artcollectorsofig #youngcollectors #dailyart #artistoftheday #artoftheday #malefigure #artsy https://www.instagram.com/p/B4NUJ93lUhB/?igshid=zhjkajmqlmsy

Nice write up on my solo show at #DAMGallery in NeoAvantGarde!! (One thing, if you read it, I'm described as a British artist ...maybe because I'm from Oxford, but that's Oxford, North Carolina, USA, not Oxford, England) 😂 link: http://neoavantgarde.de/dam-gallery-zwischen-historizitat-und-moderne/

Donaldson commits to a process of development and re-evaluation, continuously adapting to the nature of his chosen materials and the occasional “happy accident”. He is currently based in Thailand. –––––––––––––––––––––– “Skull study I–III”, 2019 DM for Inquiries . . . . . . #thomasdonaldson #skullstudy #oilpainting #contemporaryart #figurativeart #portrait #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #thedirectedartmodern #damtalentedartist #artinmiami #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollectors #artcollectorsofig #youngcollectors #dailyart #artistoftheday #artoftheday #skull #artsy https://www.instagram.com/p/B4NUY6Tl9MW/?igshid=nk79cxgkaesc

Webster’s acrylic on canvas paintings use color, energy, and movement to also remind us that we are one with the element of water and that we need it to grow, to heal, to cleanse, and to renew. From October to December of this year, Camilla Webster’s complete Keys Kintsugi collection will be exhibited in Islamorada at Ocean Sotheby’s Roberto Russell Gallery.

What drives Ysabel LeMay as she composes her fantastical digital collages is highly instinctual and organic, both drawing inspiration from and utilizing the natural world. ––––––––––––––––– “Intemporel”, 2012 DM for Inquiries . . . . . . #ysabellemay #hypercollage #digitalcollage #digitalimaging #photography #inspiredbynature #contemporaryphotography #fineartphotography #contemporaryart #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #thedirectedartmodern #damtalentedartist #artinmiami #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollectors #artcollectorsofig #youngcollectors #artlovers #dailyart #artistoftheday #artoftheday #nature #photography #collage #artsy https://www.instagram.com/p/B4P_32aFIFM/?igshid=ermm81w2mtut

Each of @ysabellemay’s pieces grow from the seedling of a single point—an image, emotion, color—that is weaved through her imagination into captivating images of dreamy, divine worlds outside of our own. ––––––––––––––––– “Whispers”, 2011 DM for Inquiries . . . . . . #ysabellemay #hypercollage #digitalcollage #digitalimaging #photography #inspiredbynature #contemporaryphotography #fineartphotography #contemporaryart #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #thedirectedartmodern #damtalentedartist #artinmiami #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollectors #artcollectorsofig #youngcollectors #artlovers #dailyart #artistoftheday #artoftheday #nature #photography #collage #artsy https://www.instagram.com/p/B4P_6jCFCLd/?igshid=a1ub14kgm51e

LeMay is continuously replenishing her voluminous catalog of the living world via travel, borrowing fragments from her own photographs of animals and flora for her “hypercollages”.

Camilla Webster found inspiration for “Keys Kintsugi” in her healing experience in the Florida Keys and her family’s century old great love of the area’s oceans and environment. Drawing from the Japanese art of kintsugi, splashes of gold meander through each painting. “Key Largo Kintsugi”, 2018. · · · · · · #camillawebster #keyskintsugi #floridakeys #thingstodoinislamorada #artexhibition #contemporaryart #modernart #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #miamiartist #miamiart #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollector #youngcollectors (at Ocean Sotheby's International Realty) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3fKizql1Wb/?igshid=14hiboo57n6w7

In each painting and in each collection, essentials of Webster’s own colorful life are apparent—her cultural experiences adding to the depth of her creations. Amongst her accolades are award-winning author, TV analyst, influencer and adventurer. Her philosophy is that “art has the ability to grab our attention, to emanate the human condition.” "The Point", 2018. · · · · · · #camillawebster #keyskintsugi #floridakeys #thingstodoinislamorada #artexhibition #contemporaryart #modernart #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #miamiartist #miamiart #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollector #youngcollectors (at Ocean Sotheby's International Realty) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3fV4YKFSs7/?igshid=1lnx6oo1ny7vq

Colombian-German artist Natalia Schnowski found inspiration for her Face Shields project in Indonesia, interested in the use of masks as functional, rather than embedded in ceremony, as they have been traditionally. · · · · · · #nataliaschonowski #colombianartist #germanartist #openingexhibition #thingstodoinmiami #artexhibition #groupexhibition #contemporaryart #modernart #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #miamiartist #miamiart #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollector #youngcollectors https://www.instagram.com/p/B3UWDrDFBd6/?igshid=nfcai4ocfuns

Her work seeks to explore the concept of identity as we know it, plunging under the surface of nationality to question the ways in which cultural identity affects our individuality.

“Identity is a recurring theme that I explore in my work. As my work has evolved I have been observing how cultural identity marks us as individuals. I seek to comment and interpret these images that I have gathered through my travels.” · · · · · · #nataliaschonowski #colombianartist #germanartist #openingexhibition #thingstodoinmiami #artexhibition #groupexhibition #contemporaryart #modernart #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #miamiartist #miamiart #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollector #youngcollectors https://www.instagram.com/p/B3Ujy4Hli-q/?igshid=151tjmib9ecf2

Nathalie Alfonso investigates notions of invisibility and visibility by way of physical labor—her own—questioning its toll on the body along with its value. · · · · · · #nathaliealfonso #colombianartist #germanartist #openingexhibition #thingstodoinmiami #artexhibition #groupexhibition #contemporaryart #modernart #DAM #DAMart #DAMgallery #miamiartist #miamiart #miamigallery #littleriverartdistrict #instaart #artcollector #youngcollectors https://www.instagram.com/p/B3RxQrHlqiV/?igshid=be9int124b32
