ABOUT THE ARTIST
Gerard Boersma (1976) is a young emerging artist from the
Netherlands, specializing in Realism. The paintings Boersma
makes are about being alone, even in a crowd. Other cultural
and social elements are also playing a big part nowadays.
Public space is usually the setting for a work of art by Boersma.
Busstops, subways and money machines for example are places
where the young artist takes an interest in. The paintings
therefore all show an element of todays society.

| In
February 2004, The Art Fix project started with 250 art-related
contacts in my personal list. Today, The Art Fix campaigns reach
a targeted art-related audience of around 15,000 weekly. By
the end of 2005, The Art Fix's network is expected to reach
20,000-25,000 art-related contacts. To date, around 700 artists
and galleries have been promoted in The Art Fix campaigns. The
Art Fix project filled a promotional void and need of a large
art-related audience with a professional look, credibility and
an honest message "Promoting art for the sake of sanity,
happiness and art itself." However, the more we grow, the
more expensive and time consuming it gets to sustain this free
venue. |

The Psalmist
Doug Hoffman
Sun-blessed
Thou child of light
Sin-eater
I bask in your youthful fire
Thy noble loins have cheered me
Filled me with renewed force
Thou hast anointed me with fragrant oils,
Rubbed away my old cares
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death
I shall fear no evil
For thou art with me
And the death is but little

ARTIST STATEMENT |
|
|
|
The poem is the result of a "poetry
challenge." One of my patrons submitted a "poetry
challenge" to a poetry group on the web. http://www.writers-bbs.com/.
The challenge was to take one of my paintings and write a poem
about it. The "challenge" created quite some great
poems and some interesting critiques of my paintings.

THE ART FIX
Augusto
Fine Art is looking for artists to be featured on our
electronic newsletter The
Art Fix .
We are looking for emerging and established painters, illustrators,
photographers, sculptors, glass artists, costume designers,
set designers willing to share a piece of their talent to
enlighten the life of all of us and to showcase their art.
There is not a limitation on the quantity of pieces to submit,
or number of proposals by one artist. There is not a deadline.
However, Augusto
Fine Art reserves all the rights to select visual artwork
to be displayed, and the rate of distribution.
Featured artists will be linked to their websites or to a
contact information web page. No fees or commissions will
be charged to be promoted or as a result of any sales resulting
from this promotion.
