ARTIST STATEMENT
When we are in nature, we don't just see what is in front of us, we feel what we see. All of our senses are engaged; we hear, we smell, we absorb the energy of the land. In my paintings, I use color and technique to re-create this feeling, so it is not just a visual representation; it becomes a visual trigger to evoke the feeling of the land.

ARTIST STATEMENT
Like a dance with inner conversation, painting for me is the language of feelings and self-awareness.

Some random thoughts while I was Calm in 1995 and 1996.

Be your best every minute.
Stand back and let yourself fly.
Blonde is the color of love for me.
Be open.
Do it.
So just look around and SEE.
You are the only judge of your world.
Eliminate judging, serve.
Accomplishment is hard work; there are NO short cuts.
Make the life you have the best it can be.
Think about boredom before you flee.
Face the fact; it's hard to make progress.
You don't need to talk about what you're doing.
The school of painting I represent is for others to define.
Be grateful if anyone sees you.
Ya can't just get off.
When anything is complicated, it's wrong.
With age comes the severity of mistakes.
Amazing the French invented the shower.
None of us can fix "it."

ART at WAR THE ARTIST'S VOICE


The Aldo Castillo Gallery will present an exhibition to provide a forum for all artists (established and emerging) to express their views on the current acts of war and war in general.

The Gallery's social mission is to increase awareness of the significant cultural contributions of international artists and Latin American artists in particular, through exhibitions, educational programs and live performances. Any "theatre" of war is so inconsistent with our overall mission that we feel compelled to encourage artists to express their individual perspectives as a means to further dialogue and present the multitude of opinions that surround this subject (it seems ironic that the current Iraq war is taking place in Mesopotamia, where one of the world's first civilizations and important cultures was located).

DEADLINE FOR EXHIBITION ENTRY: July 14th , 2004
