Returning ARTvision Artists
Rob O'Connor Brings The Uber-famous "Lagadema" to ARTvision & Positive Impact
Dec 30 2009 06:03 AM
Like with the queen of England,
sometimes we must simply bow down to royalty.
The same holds true for Rob O’Connor’s ARTvision entry this year, “Lagadema Surveys her Territory.” Lagadema is the actual name of the furry creature featured in National Geographic’s “Eye of the Leopard.” Here’s the official trailer:
As well as a longer, lower-quality clip that shows Lagadema’s sudden compassion for a newborn:
Rob’s piece is a photo-to-canvas, adding unbelievable texture to an image that captures Lagadema at rest. When you make the corresponding donation to Positive Impact of $225, thanks to Rob’s generosity, you’ll receive a *free* DVD of the National Geographic documentary bearing Lagadema’s likeness.
Buy it today and lock in that last-minute donation! Our event is tonight and you can pick it up at Will’s house between 6-8 p.m.
Visit Rob on the Web: here, and on his popular, “Daily Slap” blog, BentBlog.com.

Greg Davis Rejoins ARTvision with A Trio of Paintings
Dec 16 2009 08:23 PM
(ATLANTA :: 16 December 2009)
For someone who has been painting for friends
and family as a hobby for years,
Greg Davis
started
off his first exhibition last year with a bang...
selling two pieces.
“The Gloaming” was a mysterious and complex meditation on a marshy green abstract form; and “Autumn ’08,” a reminder of how vibrant the season change can be in the imagination.
This year, Greg offers up a 10”x10” trio of paintings, all oil on square canvas, that are riffs on familiar abstractions. They are offered individually for $100 each, or as a trio for $275. (read more)

Welcome Back Brenda McMillen to ARTvision
Dec 14 2009 08:16 AM
(ATLANTA :: 14 December 2009) If
there could be a “veteran” of ARTvision after
four short years, Brenda McMillen would be it.
She’s sold at least one piece each and every year we’ve been doing this. “Heart” sold to John Nickolas in 2006 for $295; “Eternal Sunshine” to David Osborn for $225 in 2007; and “Stand Strong” and “True Colors” sold to Tom Andrews and Positive Impact for $150 and $100, respectively.
When you do that math, Brenda has raised nearly $800 cumulatively over those four years. Please join us in congratulating Brenda on her success!
This year, Brenda offers two more stunners for our beloved beneficiary, Positive Impact - both involve the Chinese character for “Love.” Titled simply “Love,” the piece is a beautiful, oil-on-canvas in a muted, matte black frame, offered at $175.
Her second piece is a thick-and-chunky yet still diminutive box-gallery canvas, painted on all sides, entitled “Faith, Hope, Love.” The piece includes a bold, fire-red front with light-cream colored sides. The corresponding Chinese characters appear on the front and either side, right and left. This piece is offered at $195.
For more, please visit Brenda’s artist page! I think we should already give a shout-out to Brenda for ARTvision 5 in 2010, don’t you think? - WP

"Absurd Alphabet" Is The Latest & Greatest from Sean "Buck" Mansfield
Dec 12 2009 03:06 PM
(ATLANTA :: 12 December 2009)
After wowing fans with “Roots of
Innovation” last year,
Sean “Buck”
Mansfield returns to ARTvision
for a second year with “Absurd Alphabet” - a
shot he fired off after getting the hairy
eyeball at an antique store in Venice Beach,
Calif.
“They are numbers painted on glass,” he says. “They were just displayed like that at an antique shop in Venice Beach. It was a really quick pic snap as the owner was a crab - and I wasn't sure he'd appreciate it.”
“Absurd Alphabet” is photo-to-canvas and is offered at $175.
