Coming Through the Storm

Harsh Winter Storms blow in fast on the East Coast, where the Northern Woodlands – Pequot Tribes live. The men range miles into the mountains, up into forests, hunting deer to keep their family warm and fed, but when the frequent New England storms came on, they were often caught out, miles from home, sheltering through bitter nights through the Blizzard.

Each little family survived the winter in a circular Wetu, built to represent the ‘circle of life’. Small villages of Wetus clustered together through bitter, snowy winters. Families also, waited through these storms with fear. Wetus survive hurricanes, and ‘Nor-Easters, even blown nearly flat by the winds. Missing their Father, low on food, low on firewood, they would await their Father’s homecoming. Here, after a bitter, dark night, the Father returns down the mountain through the snowy drifts. His family runs to meet him.

This is a Smoke Photography sample of mine. It all starts with taking a picture of smoke and coloring the smoke by hand after duplication and placement. This piece took about 10-15 hours.

SDED-3, 07/06/2019.
Acrylic on canvas over plywood, 24 x 20 x 1/4 in (61 x 51 x 0.6 cm)
Here's another piece ready for your viewing enjoyment—when working simultaneously on about 20 works, the time when they can truly be consider ready changes often.
The piece, like all the others in the series, is trying to take to the next level the artistic philosophy of Agostino Bonalumi and Lucio Fontana, whose approach to the flat surface makes a lot of sense thus when merged together, the Bonalumi's space can physically generate three dimensions just by using Fontana's solution to "open up space," in which case the flat art piece can escape the two dimensional trap. The logic behind this line of action is that in order to build a three dimensional space you need 2-D elements or the 3-D doesn't happen, and layers become the perfect solution!

Michael Perez

Michael Perez  was born in Los Angeles California.  Ever since he can remember he has always been enthralled with both looking at and taking photos.  His mom and aunts always had cameras and took hundreds of snap shots.  

 
At the age of 9, when his mother, who also loved taking photos, recieved a newer model Kodak 110, she gave him her old one.   From there that 110 went everywhere: to his 5th grade classroom,  picnics,  family events.  But with what money would he develop the film?   No problem!  Michael would walk around his apartment complex collecting and returning glass bottles, earning a nickle and a dime here and there.  When he had just enough, he would walk down to the Thrifty's drug store, fill out the photo envelope, and wait a week to a week 1/2 for his pictures to come back.  

 
He considers himself an amateur photographer, and has only recently discovered the power of using the medium to express his innately creative nature.  He knows he has a good eye, and is now taking the time to focus on learning the craft photography and exploring his potential.  Basically having fun capturing life from time to time. His ultimate dream is to pursue a new career as a photographer

This peace was inspired by a perfect day at the beach. It was one of those days where the sun and water came together in perfect harmony. The foundation of the work began with using the different blues of the sea and later adding the brighter colors throughout the piece to illustrate the tranquility of the scene coupled with the warm comfortable colors I could feel washing over me. It’s the peace I find every time I hear the sound of ocean while watching the families, children and dogs frolic on the beach.
