artition:
How would you describe your work/art/style?
EF:The words aren’t yet there to fully describe the technique.I have recently been
experimenting with digital technology to produce a photographic
cartoon hybrid which documents the world as I see it.
artition:
What or who inspires you?
EF: People, just people in general.People in galleries, I particularly like people in galleries.
artition:
Is there a message you want to communicate with your art?
EF:Yes - there is no magic answer.People are always asking for a ‘message’ I
actually find that very frustrating. I mean what do people expect
when they ask for a message, art in-itself can’t answer questions it
can only ask them.

artition member interview
artition:
How would you describe your work/art/style?
AM: My work basically is about an oil paint that combines colour and texture to send out a message that communicates my experiences with universal subject matters. The Observer should feel identified with my works. I use a figurative style, believing that it allows me to express a form, which is wide and recognisable. The most important however is the message in them.
artition:
What or who inspires you?
AM: I am inspired by life, though it sounds like a cliche ,life gives me experiences,may they be bad or good, which I want to share with everyone, so I draw about the life by which I am inspired.
artition:
Is there a message you want to communicate with your art?
AM: There always exists a message , but the message is different everytime according to the moment of my life and my experience.
artition:
How do you like artition and what would you like to be added or changed?
AM: I would not change anything on artition but I would like it to be translated into Spanish.
artition:
Why did you join artition?
AM: Because it is interesting for me that other artists see my works and tell me what they think about them.
artition:
Who would you like to change life with for one day?
AM: I would never change my life with anyone..
artition:
Who is your favourite artist?
AM: I like the classic painters, also some of the impressionists like Van Gogh . Modern, I like very much Lucien Freud or Alex Kanevsky. Francis Bacon is a teacher and to change a bit of style I like a lot Antoni Tapies or Giacometi.
