My name is Haru Mihoko and I am a painter currently working in Japan. I have loved drawing since I was a child and studied fine art and graphic design in my student days. After that, I continued to draw freelance, doing illustration work and illustrated packaging design for souvenir sweets, and now I am mainly working on creating paintings. I mainly use mixed media techniques to create beautiful landscapes, women's paintings, abstract art, etc. in delicate colors. 

I am Anna (Anouk) Schmidt, currently living and working in the western region of Hungary as an illustrator.  My connection with drawing dates back to my childhood. A master painter introduced me to the world of applied arts from the age of 6, who had accompanied my journey for more than a decade later on. The current form of Anouk Arts represents the natural intuitive experience of childhood for me, where the perception of space, time and physical attributes ceases in the process of creation. My main topics are the relationship between nature and humans in the realm beyond the known world. The passage between the worlds is represented by symbolism, with the feeling of memories which never have happened. I am greatly influenced by nature and the living flora and fauna, constellations, mysticism, Eastern philosophies, the art of music and cinema. I am also inspired by the artists of the spiritual culture that emerged in the 60s and 70s, highlighting some of them, such as Carlos Castaneda, Syd Mead, Bruce Davidson, Hiro Isonoo, Henryk Płóciennik.

Laurentiu STROE - Color, Texture, Inner Emotions

Your colors are so rich. How do you achieve this effect? When it comes to full-format graphic works, there is no secret as such. Achieving such rich and vivid colours is a combination of technique, material and intuition. I start by choosing high quality, expensive pens made by SAKURA, JAPAN, which allow me to achieve maximum colour saturation. Ultimately it is about finding the right balance and harmony to allow the colours to speak and evoke the right emotions. My goal is to make colours not just seen, but felt. Whether I am working with traditional materials or digital media, I focus on layering and blending to create a sense of saturation that mesmerises the viewer. Ultimately my approach to colour is about creating emotional resonance. I choose colours that evoke certain feelings and experiences, allowing the viewer to connect with the work on a deeper level. By carefully manipulating colour, I strive to create work that not only attracts attention, but invites contemplation and participation. Did you begin by drawing, painting? How did your art evolve over time? My journey in art began with black and white graphics. I was captivated by the simplicity and immediacy of a simple black gel pen and white paper, which allowed me to freely express my thoughts and emotions. Over time I moved on to conceptual art where I discovered the richness of the depth of colour. My art has evolved considerably, influenced by the different experiences, cultures and techniques I have encountered along the way. Initially I focused on black and white abstraction, but as I became more confident, I began experimenting with coloured pens and mixed media techniques. This evolution reflects my personal growth and desire to challenge traditional boundaries in art. Each phase of my artistic journey has contributed to the unique voice I strive to express in my work today. I see myself developing further by creating a multi-layered installation where I can engage the viewer's tactile, auditory and visual senses. What do you want the viewer to feel? A person can display on his face only one emotion fear, joy, sadness, sympathy. But in his soul a man is multifaceted. All intertwined experiences, from love to hate, create in the depths of his soul the most important feeling. And its name is Zero Emotion. And it is this emotion that I try to catch and capture in my works. Through my art I hope to evoke a sense of connection and introspection in the viewer. I want them to feel a deep resonance with the layers of stories and emotions embedded in each piece. My artwork is meant to awaken curiosity, inviting the viewer to explore and uncover their own interpretations and perceptions of reality. Ultimately, I strive to create the very world to which the viewer resonates.
