Modern Art
Modern art has taken a whole new meaning if you take Mike Perry into the scene. He is a modern artist based in Brooklyn and he was also a designer. He surely does many different things but his form of contemporary art makes him hard to miss.
As a contemporary artist, his work is more on the innovative side and unusual but even then his modern painting has enough commercial appeal that usually results in big companies hiring him. He specializes on geometric shapes and utilization of bright, bold colors achieved as mixed media art.
Mike Perry as a modern painter has always been compelled by ways on how the hand-drawn informs the world and how it deepens the modern visual culture. He usually works for a number of editorial and commercial clients including big names like – Apple, The New York Times, Target, Dwell, eMusic, Nike and Urban Outfitters.

Starting her drawing skills in early childhood, Iveta Abolina showed off how she can trace over pictures from magazines and books. Typical of a modern artist, her skills were developed throughout the years through painting classes in her high school years. She completed a degree in Design and Technology in the Parsons School of Design. These experiences have helped her hone her skills in design as well as improved her interest in the modern art world.
Her contemporary art style illustrates the search for beauty and balance yet in chaos. If there is something to describe her art work, it would be imaginative and colorful. Her almost obsessive attention to details and use of vivid colors has become her trademark as a modern artist. She made use of abstract floral shapes which made her designs – a work from a contemporary artist.

“The mind is a busy place.” This is according to modern artist and painter Tom Hlas. He creates modern art by working out his thoughts. If contemporary art is an outward physical expression, for him the process of creating one is usually turning inward, self-questioning and internalizing with a goal for clarity and meaning to the things the mind creates.
Tom Hlas is a contemporary artist specializing in abstract painting using acrylics as medium. Any onlooker will view his abstract works and be able to draw inspiration from it afterwards. He created his masterpieces through breaking beyond the physical boundaries and enjoyment instead of just relying on ones thoughts and feelings as he creates modern painting.

Painter Christopher Swift has all the tricks of an architect’s trade in his artist’s repertoire. Approaching two-dimensional space the way a building’s designer sees a plot of land, his original acrylic paintings use flat geometric shapes to create abstract landscapes—in dynamic and vivid blocks of solid color.

Born in Nottinghamshire in 1973, graphic designer Samantha Neal launched her own collection following 15 years experience in the design industry.
Neal came up with the idea for her innovative 3D wall art while designing a pocket for appointment cards. ‘I was working for a client whose logo is four curves, almost like a four leaf clover,’ she recalls. ‘I cut the logo into a piece of card and then accidentally brushed past it. The cut part was slightly raised and I thought, “Oh, that reminds me of a butterfly.” So I started experimenting with cutting other shapes, which eventually led to me making a large-scale piece of wall art my own house.’

Michelle Armas is a modern artist who worked in a corporate graphic design office and started painting as a way to relieve stress. She worked full time in oil and acrylic for all of her paintings which incorporates several styles ranging from abstract and portraiture to geometrics and free-form shapes – sometimes it is the combination of all these styles.
The combination of hard shapes against soft lines created her very own unique portfolio that constantly evolves making her work even more interesting every time.
One of her famous works includes the “Melodious Abandon” where she demonstrated that she understands art better than most of us do. She gets what it means and she pours this understanding into canvass so that the world can see it and be able to enjoy her works.

The modern art created by I Wayan Sudarsana Yansen is a collection of classic, primitive, traditional and modern painting creations.
For him as the contemporary artist, his oil on canvas painting represents various things.
I follow the little voice from my heart as I follow in ceremonial Bali. I’m travelling from my heart in different era including – primitive, traditional and modern millenium era. It’s kind of meditation and the media are colors and canvas. I can feel and understand each moment and it’s coming through in my art to be something fresh, with detail and support in the new art movement for globalization art.
Everything is possible…people made possible to anything bad or good in this life.
His beautiful art collection indeed reflects the depths of his heart and his desire to bring something fresh to the modern painting arena.
As a modern painter, he mixed every voice of art into each of his contemporary art collection. It was made possible by his experience and education in natural life, meditation, exploration, adventure, dream and intuition.
