How thoughtful THE supreme creator! Two visions for: Sorrow & Joy; evil & good; ugly & beautiful... Opposite values has to coexist! Because opposite values are complimentary. Otherwise creation will become disinteresting. With every breath, a blend of both is being taken in and a blend of taste is being experienced… which then create a unique world of expressions!!!!

Orange Red Dot, 2020
Acrylic on plywood on canvas on plywood
29 x 24 1/2 x 1/4 in (74 x 62 x 0.6 cm)
Orange Red Dot is one of those paintings that at the time when it was considered ready (August 22, 2020) the entire strong concept had to be adjusted to fit a miniscule property called, portability... The initial piece was envisioned to reside on several surfaces: (1) canvas, (2) plywood, and the additional surface of (3) the wall where half of the circle was initially supposed to be painted on. But the portability element had to be considered, and the levels became: (1) canvas, (2) plywood, (3) canvas, (4) plywood where simple elements reside in harmony within the given space as shapes and colors. True to the 2-D, 3-D philosophy, surface elements are manipulated to become three dimensional with an additional philosophical dimension: the title has the word "orange" crossed out, suggesting a drastic change as well as the residue of a previous thought, making the red-orange dynamic a dimension not to be ignored. The viewer will undoubtedly consider replacing red with orange in his mind trying to match the piece's title.

I fell in love with the mountains in my adopted state of North Carolina. They have inspired me over and over. This work is watercolor on paper coated with gesso, a textural ground. I challenged myself to create the push-pull of textured mountains and tree line with the light and shadow of the sky at an exciting point of the day.

Yholima Vargas-Aleem is a native of Colombia. Since a very young age, Yholima was inspired by Colombian art through her mother's visual work as a landscape painter. Since then, Yholima learned to appreciate art as an expression of the soul, an extension of human emotions and cultural identity. After moving to Canada in 1997, Yholima became a recognized choreographer. Her performing career continued for several years as she become a Social Worker. After moving to   North Carolina in 2007, she became involved in the   not-for profit field while developing and exploring   new cultural initiatives related to children and adults.  However, in recent years, she became interested in the exploration of visual arts to express her vision of the world she left behind and the ones she has learned to call home. Today, you will be able to explore just some of her work and feel a piece of her heart through each panting. Yholima sees the world as a place in which parallel and dynamic realities meet at one point thanks to her experiences as an immigrant.   The artist   describes herself as a genuine and realistic woman that understands the power of   healing through artistic expressions.  As a Social Worker and Artist, she appreciates simplicity, humbleness, gratitude, diversity, resilience, pain, triumph, disappointment, dignity, self-respect and power   of nature. She hopes to invite   the viewer to see her world through a window of vibrant colors.  Whether there is sadness, chaos, happiness, purpose, emptiness or   meaning; there are always colors.
