Awakening your spiritual side is really what artists do. When you hit a groove, it's not
you; it's the spirit world. - Tommy Chong |

Preston Craig - working his ass off Do you encounter misconceptions about being an artist? God yes. Let’s see, a couple of my favs: What a great God given gift you have. No one gifted me anything. I’ve worked my ass off promoting and marketing my skills and talents as an artist. Luckily, I did have a supportive mom and an aunt but I’ve really had to work at this to make it this far and it ain’t over yet. That is why it is called art-work and not art-play. | | |

Kaylee Prebeck - a sense of oneness within What does creating art provide for you?
A sense of oneness within and a connection to all that is. When I’m out photographing there is no other feeling like it. The subject and I become one . . . | | |

Patrushka - the art of groove and flow Where do you find inspiration? Most of my inspiration comes from pop culture, music and daily life - but almost anything can spark my eye and then my brush. Sadly, lately it seems to be a number of Day Of The Dead portrait tributes, full of love for our recently departed superhumans - David Bowie and Prince. | | |

Like the Forest by Michelle Carnes It's my calling to be a storyteller of the human experience. My art is a personal confession of my emotional kinship to the subject. Everyone has a story and a strength. I see a common thread that weaves its way through all moments in life, a musician mesmerized by rhythm, light that engulfs a landscape only possible that day, and the beauty of a confident woman. |

uBe Art is mixing it up for the summer! In July, artist Rebecca Meredith will be embracing the space. We are turning the reigns over to her creative hands for the entire month - featuring her new series, Constellation, weekend gatherings and a ceiling installation. She has fun stuff in store for you! For August, uBe is busy hammering out a Summer Nights theme - merging art and lounge into a month of being social with art. Forget the daytime! Cocktail hour and art is where it's at this summer. September we launch into our next round of juried exhibitions! |

Call For Artists Still Life: Past, Present and Future Artists have broadened the traditionally narrow definition of still life painting through the use of new media and new subject matter. They have extended the genre beyond the fruit-and-flower paintings, making art of commercially available items such as Claes Oldenburg’s Tea Bag, Jim Dine’s Bathrobe & Andy Warhol’s Campbell's Soup Cans since the 1960s. Get More Info about this and other Call for Artists! |
