A small factory on the outskirts of Fez in Portugal produces striking ceramic pieces. Most of the objects are made and decorated by hand by artisans like this young woman. Conditions are modest to say the least, an inverted Coca Cola crate serves as table legs and a couple of bricks as footrests. The products are beautiful.

GREY STRIPE MAMMOTH SUNFLOWER (FOR AUDRA) PORTRAIT OF AUDRA BY MONIQUE SARKESSIAN
oil on canvas 20" x 16" 2011
From the artist:
When my cousinb's wife was murdered, I was shaken and devastated. She was a beautiful happy woman. She was always positive, warm and loving and made me and everyone else feel very good to be around. Even when I felt uncomfortable with my own family, she always made me feel welcome. When she died, her three sons were left orphans. I had planted some sunflowers in my garden and the largest of them bloomed first with a bright gold sunny head just like Audra, its face bright against the clear blue sky. As I was outside painting, I just kept observing how beautiful it was and how much it reminded me of her as I painted and wept. I painted an wept through the whole process. This is the painting I did 6 years ago about my cousin's wife Audra.
Admirers comment that my work urges them to see beyond the subject matter. My purpose of painting of a quince blossom is not to make an illustration or to render photographic detail. My purpose is similar to that of Asian art, to take the viewer beyond and find the essential soul in the subject which allows the viewer to find a path to meditation through the truths expressed. The way I work draws the viewer to expand in themselves their own comprehension of the subject.

2009 marks the beginning of Eric Adjetey Anang's international career. He was, with his creations, featured in a television commercial for Aquarius (sports drink) and collaborated with the Oregon College of Art & Craft, by organizing a two-month residence in Ghana for artist and Senior Lecturer Michael de Forest.
Eric Adjetey Anang is also involved in anthropological research related to Ga people with Roberta Bonetti, an affiliate professor in History of Anthropology at University of Bologna and Fellow at Italian Academy for Advanced Studies, Columbia University.
Within a few years, Eric Adjetey Anang has become, as a coffin maker, one of Ghana's leading contemporary artists, recognized both locally and internationally. The role of both families ordering coffins for their relatives and some travel agencies, which include the visit of his workshop in their packages played a critical role in the local recognition of his talent, and helped to attract interest of cultural institutions established in Ghana.
One of the MANY FemmeFest 2010 artist images I've been behind on. Chipping away a little at a time (among the other piles of sessions to be edited). This features the super sweet Chelsea LaBate playing out in front of Real Eyes Bookstore in NoDa. I can happily say I did almost nothing to this picture from its original SOOC form. I just loved it as was.
