The Arts Do Live... 

“...continuously, and they live literally by faith; 

their names and their shapes and their uses and 

their basic meanings survive unchanged in all 

that matters through times of interruption, diminishment, 

neglect; they outlive governments 

and creeds and the societies, even the very 

civilization that produced them. They cannot 

be destroyed altogether because they represent 

the substance of faith and the only reality. 

They are what we find again when the ruins are 

cleared away.” - Katherine Anne Porter 

With great pride and an even greater sense of 

duty and responsibility we would like to present 

the first volume of the Hidden Treasure Art 

eMagazine / Spring 2015 April. 

Our mission is to connect and build a bridge 

between artists and art lovers by providing and 

presenting a high quality source of visual art 

and design through our book, website, magazine 

and other publications. We are dedicated 

to bringing happiness and recognition to the 

artists and joy, beauty and satisfaction to the 

art lovers let them be collectors, buyers, galleries, 

curators or others taking pleasure in art and 

design. 

We believe that Hidden Treasure Art eMagazine 

has much to offer both to the Artist and to 

the Readers.

Her main reference developing her painting style was the painter Pere Torné-Esquius 

(Barcelona 1879-Flavancourt 1936), particularly 11 naïve works which had been 

painted by him to decorate a child´s room. Maria tries to achieve an art for all ages: 

a kind of art dedicated to both child and adult. She shows her artwork both at regional 

and international scale.

“...the expressive style of M. 

Teresa Guala identifies herself 

with a search tied to the colour, 

to the intense flowing of 

the line and to the vital scansion 

of the images. In particular, 

the painter has elaborated 

a speech in which the simplification 

of the representation 

results, as suggested by A. 

Bottello, by an adhesion to 

the German Expressionism.” -

these works evocative in the extreme and in ‘a 

pictorial figure’ – as said in precedence - Neoexpressionist... 

In fact in her works, above all in the 

most recent, we find a far analogy of line with 

some important painters of “Die Brucke” as Heckel, 

Kirchner, Schmidt, Rottluff.” - Arturo Bottello

Born in Lienz, Austria. Gabi Domenig 

was attracted to fine arts in an early 

age. Her love for painting encouraged 

her to take classes in nude painting, 

color theory, drawing and composition. 

Following her first exhibition in 

1999, where she presented 20 large 

pastel paintings, she started to paint 

with acrylics on canvas. Gabi is primarily 

concerned with the representation 

of man and women which shows 

through her artworks. She tries to capture 

moments and to build up emotional 

tensions. The viewer should feel 

something of her passion when she 

paints. For her art should be life-affirming 

and beautiful, touching and connecting. 

Her characters send out varied 

emotions such as pride, pain, love, 

sadness, loneliness, joy and longing.

HIDDEN TREASURE ART eMAGAZINE / Summer 2015

The figures are mostly located in a 

particular environment cutout. The expression 

of the eyes should animate 

the viewer to enter in a deeper communication 

with the figures in the picture. 

Flowers, plants, animals, patterns 

and landscape sections are decorative 

parts, but are usually situated in the 

background. Because of her intensive 

color palette and the figurative painting 

she is attributed to the Neo-Expressionism. 

You can find her images in private 

collections, in international art books, 

art magazines and online art galleries.

“Daniel Wimmer was born in Salzburg 

and grew up in an artist family. 

He’s been drawing since childhood 

and since he has finished the Nursing 

School he is truly ‘addicted’ to 

it. Due to working in night-shifts he 

has more spare time and he started 

to draw and paint every day. With 

the help of different books and online 

courses he taught himself the 

techniques of the old masters and 

also other styles.

In his paintings he loves playing 

with contrasts, compositions and 

different schools. He hardly repeats 

himself and this way he is learning 

from each new picture. His preferred 

subject are people. He loves 

the different, always changing colours 

of their skin and the fascinating 

shapes of their bodies and faces.”

Kirsten Høst is a Danish artist, now living 

in Denmark, who has embarked on 

a new phase of her life and work, after 

spending 30 years in London, UK. This 

new phase emanates from a confident 

and sure belief and trust, that there is a 

plan for each one of us, if we allow our 

true gifts to unfold naturally. This trust has 

allowed her to find a new vision and a 

new voice working with oil painting and 

watercolour/ink/collages. 


Kirstens work is strongly influenced by 

geometry, which she sees reflected in 

all aspects of our universe. This theme 

was reinforced by her meticulous study 

and admiration of the great renaissance 

painters in the museums in Italy, 

where she has spent longer periods of 

time, especially in Firenze, Perugia and 

Venezia. Kirsten`s work frequently starts 

with a geometric shape and with an 

open mind, and inspiration develops a 

life and vibration of its own. 

Her work has been exhibited in London, 

Paris, Edinburg, Copenhagen, Philadelphia, 

and New York in the U.S.A, and 

will be in 2015 exhibited in Palermo and 

Firenze in Italy, Paris in France and in 

Barcelona in Spain.

Born in 1956 in Trois-Rivières, Quebec (Canada), Raymond 

Quenneville is a self-taught artist who has been 

painting for over 35 years. In 1992, after having explored a variety of media, he went 

back to oil painting, and decided to pursue his own unique style in expressing landscape 

and light. 

By playing with complementary colours, Raymond Quenneville accentuates contrasts 

and creates impressive luminous effects. In his landscape paintings, subtle values 

variations almost make visible the fine consistency of the air itself and create an 

illusion of depth that is convincing to the eye. He likes to paint peaceful environments, 

expressing serenity and equanimity of places where it is good to stop and just 

be for a moment. 

Raymond Quenneville has held many solo exhibitions and participated in numerous 

collective exhibitions and symposia. Winner of several awards he has received many 

special mentions from juries and the public. He is a member of the Institut des arts 

figuratifs (IAF), of the Society of Canadian Artists (SCA) and of the Mondial Art Academia 

(MAA).

Art Website - Do you have one? 

If you are an artist, you must proactively market your creations 

to the world to become acknowledged and appreciated in 

this highly competitive industry. While there are a number of 

ways to market your artistry and unique eye including participating 

in art shows, exhibits and contests, there is nothing more 

effective than creating an art website to market your skills and 

exceptional artwork. While beauty is in the eye of the beholder, 

you will give your visitors the visual samples that will affect 

their impression on you as both a person and an artist. 

While it is true that artists today have many choices as far as 

online art marketing is concerned the importance of having a 

presence via means of a personal website for your art is more 

valid today than ever. If you desire to sell art online it is crucial 

to have your own presence if you desire to reap the reward 

of your efforts. Having your own artist website is a key factor 

toward success if you desire to sell original art online without 

having to split profit from eCommerce with others.

Although he has studied art both privately and at the University of Utah, he is essentially 

self-taught. His first recognition as an artist came at the age of eight when his work 

won first prize at the annual exhibit at the Old Mission at San Juan Capistrano, CA. 

During the last uranium boom of the 1970’s, Blackburn co-owned and operated a mining 

and exploration company, North American Resources Corp. working out of Moab, 

UT, which was how he came to focus on red rock landscapes. 

Blackburn’s art has been widely exhibited, collected and has hung in the White House 

and appeared on national television. In 1987, he invented a new, user-interactive art 

form for which he received a US Patent in 1990. His work is frequently commissioned by 

collectors.

Francesco Sandrelli is a self-taught artist

UK and the United States. Although he 

had a keen interest in drawing since early 

childhood, he began to paint in the 

eighties, attending a private school in 

Florence. After four years spent in school, 

he felt exhausted and went to hospital 

for art therapy in painting. From 1994, he 

paints again. His works during this period 

reflect a ‘grande’ love for his family. 

Out of Time

For a while he paints large canvases, especially in remembrance 

of childhood memories, sensations and dreams: his 

virtual storytelling mixes fairy tales with inner visions, combining 

imperfection with sharpness and abstraction with figurative. 

Sometimes feeling everything farce around, Francesco 

is striving to find sense in turmoil through painting.

“In her Brussels Studio, that artist loves 

to mix China ink and waters colours, 

feather and brush in concert. In that 

technique error does not forgive, the 

indelible stroke becomes a challenge 

that she finds amusing. In her peaceful 

gardens, she affirms her fantasy, in representing 

strange personages, often 

insects that she acts like actors on the 

stage. The wood, the trees, the leaves 

become the decor and the curtains”.

“The watercolours are worked in 

a non-conformist way, often with 

five or six layers, very meticulous 

work. In tone splashes of colour 

the artist juggles with the strokes 

of the feather, with rhythm, movements, 

and dynamism. Transported 

by the delicacy of the stroke, 

the insect himself becomes a comedian 

or a minstrel. And finally 

this strange world takes us to respect 

the differences. In feat, it 

means respect of the other, Love 

of Live, in all shapes and form”.

Positive, full of interest and always looking 

to the future, these words to define Cudin. 

He has studied Architecture in Canada 

and Psychology in Italy, painter, sculptor, 

elegant engraver, gentle and generous 

person, with great passion for poetry. The 

artist has always lived the art 360°, his artistic 

work is an ongoing process of analysis 

and comparison of the works from the 

past to the contemporary, between the 

contingent reality and conceptualism.

He follows his emotions, exploring original languages 

to become spokesman for the complex 

of today’s man feelings. Not infrequently 

the reality itself enters into his paintings, 

through elements that the painter collects over 

time and in different moments of his life. They 

become part of his work, interfacing with a 

painting technique always strongly expressive, 

airline tickets and bus tickets, newspaper clippings 

and pieces of posters, papers and writings, 

the artist brings its back from his numerous 

trips in different countries world and put them 

in his artworks. He collects pieces of life, which 

he then transform into a paint. Signs that art 

saves and turns into memories and emotions.

Born in China, adopted at an 

early age and raised in the United 

States, Shae White brings both 

cultures alive in each of her canvases. 

Each painting tells so much 

about her and where she came 

from. Self-taught at an early age, 

she learned the most important 

values: the freedom to explore, 

to create, and best of all, to try. 


“I feel I have more freedom 

to try different ways 

to open my mind and 

grow every day in ways 

that inspire me to be 

better,” - Shae White

Shae ignores the rules so she 

can express her thoughts in 

her own way. Her work isn’t 

abstract, surreal or cubism. 

It’s a synergy of all those 

and more. She refers to this 

style as “Geometrism.”

Nepotism

140 x 175 cm 


Fu Wenjun, Chinese important 


artist, talks about history 

of art; it’s not a means, 

but the main goal. He 

therefore analyses some 

aspects which are meant 

to express a timeless concept. 

In this way, the expression 

of every artwork 

becomes a thesis with no 

possibility of anti-thesis, full 

of proofs which we find 

again many times in history, 

western and oriental, to 

remember that history is repeating 

itself and that the 

mankind as a whole has 

similarities beyond geo-cultural 

position.

Weber lives and works in

works since 1968, at first 

painting and assemblages, 

since the 1980ies primarily 

photography. He 

feels particular reference 

to Ansel Adams, Bernd 

Becher and Sebastiao 

Salgado. His works are 

preferentially focussed 

on landscapes in a broad 

sense, meaning “natural 

finished” and “manmade” 

settings. Source 

to his works is the world’s 

visible reality as it is. It actually 

provides an endless 

domain of endemic art 

basics.

The particular feature is to discover, select and process the intrinsic essence from the 

huge diversity and variety of forms, substances and situations with a discrete power 

of attraction to be creatively converted into artworks. Sir Karl Popper very rightly accentuated 

the abundant beauty of our planet Earth. With his photographs Weber 

quests to contribute to it’s visualization. Wilfried Wiegand calls this the ‘detected 

beauty’, which has been already existing but has to be bared and recollected. It 

is no matter of words and reasons to get access to this kind of artwork. The key is to 

realize it subjectively as individual beholder in his respective perception. In this sense 

Weber’s artwork wants to touch people and at the best to fascinate and to inspire.

Approaching Galleries 

It’s one thing being an established and 

famous artist, where all you have to do 

is paint the pictures and hand them 

over to an agent, then show up for the 

preview evening. It’s another to be at 

the beginning of your career as an artist. 

Most of us have to plan our own shows, 

as I have done over the last few years, 

and there is a lot of work involved if 

you want to get the most out of your 

art exhibition. I was fortunate in that I 

worked as a gallery assistant for artist 

Nerys Johnson when I was at Durham 

University, and assisted her with preparing 

for her shows. Even though she 

was an established artist, there was still 

a lot to be done. 

After you have planned an exhibition 

of your work, you will see that the commission 

galleries request is well worth 

the effort they put in! 

Restaurants might be a good place to 

start, it works for both the restaurant in 

terms of attracting customers, and the 

artist. It is also a good place to get over 

your ‘art exhibition anxiety’ in a far less 

intimidating atmosphere than a public 

gallery. They charge no commission, 

but you have to do the work yourself… 

from the hanging to the promotion 

and subsequent sales. So, it is from this 

perspective that I write. 

In the Beginning: Your First Art Exhibition 

First of all, you must secure your ‘gallery 

space’. I had my first solo art exhibition 

at Pizza Express in Darlington, UK. 

As a corporation, they have a huge 

commitment to the arts, in particular 

local artists. Their restaurants are often 

designed as galleries themselves, and 

they know that their customers really 

appreciate the ever-changing work 

on their walls. To be continued...

Elana Schwartz is a wood sculptor 

from New Mexico. She has been 

drawn to the use of statuary as a 

conduit between the physical and 

metaphysical; concrete objects 

transcend the inherent limitations of 

the physical and provide a channel 

through which hidden meaning is 

unlocked. Wood is the perfect medium 

to explore concepts of the 

cyclical nature of life, containing 

within each piece a living history 

and future all its own. The recreation 

of wood into sculpture captures 

the transformative spirit of our own 

life cycles, and has the capacity to 

make any space sacred.

Why Artists Should Be Paid for 

Their Artwork? 

“Artists shouldn’t be paid for their art. Getting paid prevents them from 

creating really good stuff.” - I read somewhere online. 

I want to make three points about Art, Contribution and Money with this 

article: 

Your art is a contribution to society. It brings joy, it solves problems, and 

it makes this world a better place. 

Being paid allows you to make that contribution to society. 

Your contribution expands in relation to the amount of time you put 

into it. More hours means expanded contribution to this world with your 

God-given talent. 

“Artists are better off working a job they hate and then painting in their 

spare time.” 

This is the problem I have with that: 

No one should work a job they hate. You were put on this earth with 

talents and you are meant to do that which you are good at and what 

you love! The world is missing out on your contribution. The less an artist 

creates, the less they grow. It requires hours upon hours to hone your 

craft. 

Charging for your artwork enables you to make a contribution to the 

world with your art. It allows you to develop your style and to get better 

and better at what you do. 

As long as we are stuck in a money based system, I find it an outright insult 

to all hardworking artists to say they shouldn’t be paid for what they 

do. It’s just a crazy notion that this one, single profession should work for 

free! (While everyone else gets paid.)

Giuseppe Digiacomo was born in Manduria on January 23, 1990. Since childhood 

he was fascinated by the art of shaping wood and by attending the workshop of an 

artisan, he acquired the rudiments that allowed him to learn how to assemble and 

transform materials readily available. At 9 years old, he moved to Rome, where he 

still lives and works. 

The eternal city stimulates and intrigue him, with its many shops and works of art in 

every alley. So, he get close on tiptoe to the art world that, in a short time, involves 

him completely. In January 2015, he made his first work, “Spazio Vitale”, in which he 

focuses the man with his own emotions. Emotions that are also his and that, since 

then, take shape in his works.

In a short time, he experimented new materials and perfected his technique. The 

Maestro Alberto Vespaziani, President of “100 Pittori di via Margutta” Association, is 

the first who to take an interest in its work and, judging them as innovative, he agree, 

in 26.03.2015, to expose him with artists of the Association. Since then he has participated 

in several collective exhibition and in various artistic contest.

“Marian Sava” makes the stone sing” 

He received his artistic education at the 

Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Bruxelles. 

When looking at his works, one word comes 

to mind ‘Emotion’, because one experiences 

a great pleasure, produced by the creative 

impulses of the artist, which are marked 

by the seal of extreme sensitivity. Marian 

Sava approaches the abstract art in his very 

nuanced manner, without ever falling on 

the side of pure and hard abstraction. He 

passes smoothly, from the strict image of a 

subject to the creation of new unexpected 

forms (...)
