Hit The Road Artist Mara Zaslove | Long Ago And Far Away

Hit The Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Mara Zaslove Santa Monica, CA Long Ago And Far Away Fine Art Photography Artist Statement Although a native Californian, I have traveled extensively throughout this country and abroad. When I look through my camera I am drawn towards a composition that that tells a story. While passing through Wyoming, I was captivated by the dusted light that highlighted this expansive terrain. The landforms and their hues were something to behold. It was difficult to keep ‘my eyes on the road’. Photography has ignited a passion that has interwoven my view of the world with my life experiences.  When shooting,Read More →

Hit the Road Artist John Nieman | Not Exactly Straight

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist John Nieman Dobbs Ferry, New York, USA Not Exactly Straight Watercolor Artist Statement Some have called it “art with a sense of humor.” I am complimented by that, since I believe that for any two-dimensional piece to bring layers of pleasure is a worthy goal. By the way, I have featured this piece in a recent book called Art of Even More Lists. In this compilation, I showcase the art and accompany it with a poem. Here is the verse that I wrote after completing the picture: Not Exactly Straight I know rock solid arrows WhoRead More →

Hit the Road Artist John Nieman | Forbidden Fruit

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist John Nieman Dobbs Ferry, New York, USA Forbidden Fruit Watercolor Artist Statement I strive for my paintings to work on several layers. I like to keep the image big and bold enough to sometimes obliterate the words, or at least make it challenging for the viewer to fill in the blanks. I tend to work with watercolor, often accented with pastel. When the interplay is ideal, the work has immediate impact, and residual mental tickle. By the way, I featured this piece in a book called Art of Lists. In this compilation, I showcase the artRead More →

Hit the Road Artist Theresa Vandenberg Donche | Crossroads

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Theresa Vandenberg Donche San Diego, California, USA Crossroads Mixed Media Artist Statement This new series is an expression of my own nostalgia. It is about my childhood memories growing up on a farm in Central California. Remembering riding onthe tractor with my father, flying over the fields in his airplane, smelling the plowed earth,listening to the crows flying above us, and lookingat the immensity of the landscape. It was magic.Read More →

Hit the Road Artist Joe Calleri | Overdrive

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Joe Calleri Northcote, Victoria, California, Australia OVERDRIVE Fine Art Photography Artist Statement American cars possess plenty of character – all smooth curves, flowing lines, and those beautiful fins.  I photographed this car from a number of different angles, I especially liked the rear view of the vehicle, and the hat that sits on top of the back seat. For me, that hat adds a particular narrative to the image – who owns the car? Where do they drive it?Read More →

Hit the Road Artist Jovanni Luna | Entr

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Jovanni Luna Wenatchee, Washington, USA ENTR Fine Art Photography Artist Statement “ENTR” is part of a dream series that depicts certain parts of the adventurous dream. By using the color and the incomplete spelling of the words I try to blur the the image and make it unclear of what might actually be happening. Just like a dream can be hard to decipher and understand, so are these pieces.Read More →

Hit the Road Artist M.C. Reardon | Farmer’s Field

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist M.C. Reardon Oak Grove, Oregon, USA Farmer’s Field Fine Art Photography Artist Statement I grew up in the Northwest, where I built forts, played in clear creek waters and followed tracks of wild animals under the lush green canopies of old growth forests. These places of wonder and solitude are neighborhoods now, full of cookie cutter homes, where people have no memory of the beauty that once stood in the middle of their living rooms. I created ‘Farmer’s Field’ while on a train trip to Los Angeles in the middle of November. Inevitably, traveling on aRead More →

Hit the Road Artist M.C. Reardon | Lonely Road

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist M.C. Reardon Oak Grove, Oregon, USA Lonely Road Fine Art Photography Artist Statement I grew up with the soft whispers of breezes dancing through forests and across tall wheat fields. I take solace and comfort in the sound of raindrops on the roof of my studio. I connect to the world through wide open spaces when the closeness of living in the city gets to be too much, when I can no longer hear myself think and I crave the fresh air, peace and inspiration of wild spaces. I stumbled upon ‘Lonely Road’ just beyond ShanikoRead More →

Hit the Road Artist Jave Yoshimoto | If A Tree Falls

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Jave Yoshimoto Seattle, Washington, USA If a tree falls Watercolor Artist Statement The road is where I played water balloon fights with the neighbors, where I stood to adore my high school crush,  where my cousin got pooped on the shoulder by a bird. The road is what I drove on as I found my first home to call my own. The road is what I ran to when my mother stomped my head to the ground. The road is where my blood dripped steadily from my nose, where I made my girlfriend cry, where I was calledRead More →

Hit the Road Artist Debra Keirce | Leave It Alone

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Debra Keirce Ashburn, Virginia, USA Leave It Alone Acrylic Painting Artist Statement Her work draws from edgy contemporary styles as well as classic compositions, and is influenced by the modern masters of photrealism and Trompe L’Oeil. She has combined her passion, intellect and solid technique to create a genuinely original body of work. She works primarily in acrylics and most of her show pieces are still lifes and urban landscapes. To achieve extreme detail, she uses magnifying lenses while applying the paint.

Hit the Road Artist Chelsea Hill | Miss Guided

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Chelsea Hill Laguna Hills, California, USA Miss Guided Mixed Media Artist Statement I am particularly attracted to the symbols associated with Christian themed art throughout history. With my work I explore religion as a reaction to the threats on human existence. Death, fear, sickness, violence, perversion, along with other natural impulses of the human mind and body are themes that I explore through visual metaphors.Read More →

Hit the Road Artist Anna Belleforte | Waiting For Austria

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Anna Belleforte Amersfoort, New York, Netherlands Waiting for Austria Collages Artist Statement The maps themselves have become my inspiration and source material. By cutting them up and playing with them – initially seeking out identifiable shapes, and later by composing entirely new shapes from random snippets of road lines, I have found that they can tell a story that I want to tell: our interconnection with our physical surroundings. In Waiting for Austria, part of my Travellers series, I used a map of Austria to express how waiting is a part of the travel experience. AndRead More →

Hit the Road Artist Anna Belleforte | California Dreaming

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Anna Belleforte Amersfoort, New York, Netherlands California DreamingCollages Artist StatementLike the physical intertwining of an intimate relationship, I feel the intersections of urban infrastructure represent a similar relationship, albeit on a grander scale. This dichotomy of scale interests me – the small lines on paper are in reality huge distances, while small signs of affection can also have a huge impact or be a tremendous journey. California Dreaming is purely collaged parts of a map of California, and nothing else – no colour strengthening to emphasize the road lines.Read More →

I am now painting scenes of images so familiar to me between New Mexico and Arizona. Traveling between the two states has given me the desire to capture the beauty of the adobe buildings, gates, flowers, and the history along Route 66.

Hit the Road Artist Laurence Scott | Towaway Zone

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Laurence Scott Santa Maria, California, USA Towaway Zone Fine Art Photography Artist Statement My photos are primarily about finding beauty and mystery in the everyday world.  There’s no message; they’re simply exercises in monochrome or color, composition, point of view, and the not-so-simple act of seeing.  I don’t like to intellectualize about my work.  My images either mover you or they don’t.  What you see is what you get.Read More →

Hit the Road Artist Joanne Manzella | Sunset Cruise

Hit the Road Call for Entries Accepted Artists Artist Joanne Manzella Los Angeles, California, USA Sunset CruiseFine Art Photography Artist StatementBorn and raised in Southern California, the natural inclination is to think we all love the beach and everything that comes with it like surfing or boogie boarding and the Woodie cars with surfboards attached to the roof. This girl didn’t always love to go in the water but certainly, the attraction to this style of cars stayed with me. Just as the owners of these classic cars love working and perfecting the look of this nostalgic era, I too want to take these carsRead More →
