From the Editor:
Welcome to the premier issue of ABSORB Fine Art!
ABSORB Fine Art is a magazine dedicated to all artists who have the desire to share their work with the world. It is also for those who claim they “used to be” artists. News Flash! You never stop being an artist; you may only cease to create art. But, why stop creating? Time, work, school, spouse, kids, etc. Yes, we all have many facets to our life, but few things in the world allow us to express our individuality. Each one of us is inherently unique for a variety of reasons; chief among them is our individual perspective of the world. So, how do we show each other that crazy yet methodical land in our heads? We illustrate and interpret it with symbols, colors, textures, language, rhythm, and sound. Such interpretation is defined as art because it arises from a unique inner vision that is created in the real, outer world taking on any form of aesthetic expression and having any degree of intent from improvised to deliberate.
All members of the human race share the innate desire for creation. Ever since the beginning of time, humans have been hard at work making things. At first, the items were made purely out of necessity; weapons for hunting food, bowls for serving food, tools for making weapons and bowls, etc. Then at some point, items began to be crafted, with a careful hand and creative eye, to look beautiful. Such items showed status, became emblems in rituals and ceremonies, were presented as gifts, and beautified living quarters. It is now our duty, as artists, to carry on and evolve the traditions of our ancestors through our own visions and interpretations.
Our objectives at ABSORB are to give artists a channel to reach out to the world and to give readers a better connection and relationship with the arts. We hope, with each issue of ABSORB, to follow a natural progression growing like an initial sketch morphs and changes into finished masterpiece. However, unlike some finished masterpieces that are unattainable to the average individual, ABSORB Fine Art reaches out to everyone, and embraces all levels of art and comprehension.
We encourage all the contributing artists to write about the art they are sharing with us in each issue. They must tell the reader what inspired the art, how it was created, and the message it represents. If the artist chooses, they may include a short bio introducing themselves to the readers along with contact info, such as an email address and website.
We also encourage our readers to ask questions and offer interpretations. That dialog between the artist, the art, and the viewer gives the artist a chance to grow and develop to heights once inconceivable.
It is better to consult a doctor for sildenafil wholesale premature ejaculation. Today, we are addicted to online sildenafil india watching TV, living on fast food and doing no physical work. These nutrients have capability to bring erectile functions bought that cialis price back on the way. These are made to keep erectile dysfunction levitra 100mg from the health.
On another note, we do not want to limit the art that we show. Each issue will contain as many different genres of art as possible, including, but not limited to, Painting, Sculpture, Illustration, Computer Art, Drawings, Collage, Poetry, Short Story, and Photography. We will, however, emphasize the fine arts and may not publish pieces created more for function than concept and aesthetics. Nevertheless, if you feel your art teeters the edge of function and art please still submit it! Send us a clear statement of your work with some images that show off your best pieces and you may be featured in a future issue!
We invite everyone to become a part of this journey of expression and comprehension.
As a nice thought to end on, let’s make the world a better place by helping each other expand our understanding of ourselves through art!
Sincerely,
Kellijean Press, Editor of ABSORB Fine Art
