Artist Quirk - Strange, unusual and quirky arts...meet the latest and greatest artists

 
Who is an artist? What do they create? What is the definition of art? Who are the latest artists? What is their claim to fame? Is this art or what is art? Is music an art? What about writing? Does strange art count as art? . . . is life imitating art? What is the value of art? How much would you pay for art?

Imperial Red and Gold



Imperial Red & Gold with an Ode to Dragons

My blood is too hot. No heat can escape so it implodes on itself. It sets fires inside me like dragons stretching their lungs with their dark, molten breath. Its the golden edge of life sinking slowly beneath the mantle of my crusty exterior. This is a self-portrait of the hidden dragons that live inside me. An Ode to Dali inside as well.

Baby PIcture


Baby Picture #1

When I am too numbed by the pain of life I create art to remind myself that there is still some good in me.
The struggle to regain one's humanity after the death of a loved one is never easy.


Emerald Life of a Butterfly


Emerald Life of a Butterfly, and an Ode to Venus

This piece comes from the idea that gentleness is a powerful creative strength.
In order to initiate an artwork, the pivotal catalyst is always a gentle relaxing of the chains around my heart so that I can be free to express who I am and leave you with a gift from my heart.

Corrin Evans

Artist Statement
I am largely self-taught, and I am most strongly influenced by ancient design and artwork, such
as Celtic knotwork, and Asian and Arabic styles of calligraphy. I love to play with negative space, and
so I love the contrast between light and dark. My artwork has now progressed into the world of color,
and I feel that it brings a new depth to my illuminations. This is the style of Anima Mundi, translated,
the soul of the world. What this style allows me to express is the tangible link between myself, in this
physical reality, and the soul of the world. My pieces are snapshots of this ever-changing, ever-shifting,
luminous cord that weaves us together.
About the artworks:
These artworks were created with calligraphy ink, metallic gel pen, and acid-free paper. All pieces are 24”x30” Be sure to visit Corrin's website to see more.
