Over the past two years I've selected portraits I found to be both challenging and inspirational. This virtual gallery was assembled with photographic images I was lucky enough to find and compelling enough to mark as a Deviant Art favourite. It contains 28 images by 25 talented artists, all of whom created the artwork for their own reasons and were not involved in this project. I just wanted to showcase their talents and publicly thank them for enriching my life. The images are arranged to create a flow with placement that implies a narrative to the exhibit as a whole. Each image was created by the artists and models for their own reasons who may or may not have intended the interpretation I have given to their work but art is essentially a dialogue and I can only respond to the messages I received.
The artists are:
cable9tuba, SlevinAaron,
jerestar, fabienbos,
aTTe-1, danodano,
Gerry-And-Me, lucbecks,
PicturePuttonen, adrianismyname,
B0NDART, Nightmare-Beta,
Ian-Maynard-Davis, Cebolaz,
lkorian, JuleOfJune,
Chimaerica, a-amys,
Eman333, unseen62,
galifardeu, johnyvrr,
lkorian, CreameCaramele,
MistoAcrilico.
Other equally compelling artwork were sacrificed because they did not fit into this narrative. Those images, plus others, are in my Favourites and I encourage you to look at them and connect with the individual artists on their own sites.
