JudiLynn India - Artist for September 2012

Controlled Chaos Acrylic Paintings by JudiLynn India at the OZLAND Art Gallery

 JudiLynn India has been drawing since she could hold a crayon. She studied art throughout school, Commercial Art in high school and Graphic Design in college. After the turn of the century, she decided to focus HER creativity on acrylic and digital painting and has totally enjoyed the journey. Known in SL as JudiLynn India and RL as JUDILYNN, her mission is to share her vision and message as an artist with the global community. Her work embodies her spirit and personality. Her goal is to allow the viewer to experience the image with their own mind's eye. Her work is entirely intuitive. She gets lost in the layering of texture and color. Occasionally, she will include figurative work if her spirit is so presented with the composition. Just as there is order in the chaos of the universe, the energy within her is brought into focus one canvas at a time. You can view JudiLynn's artwork at the OZLAND Art Gallery the month of September. Don't forget to pick up the FREE gift she has made too.

HHB 1900's England Photography Exhibit by Sven Pertelson

HHB (Horace) was born in 1882 and moved to London as a teenager in 1900. He had many jobs... Builders Clerk, Carpenter and Taximeter repairer and he loved to photograph his everyday life.

The HHB Exhibit in OZLAND commemorates his memory. Sven Pertelson found Horaces' glass plate negatives whilst cleaning out a family shed. Over 200 plates were recovered and Sven vowed to the family to look at them and preserve those that were not too damaged by the years of neglect. That was  many years ago and now he has the equipment to do the job


This July we will remember Horace through his photographs. Sven has carefully cleaned and digitally enhanced 20 of his favorite photographs. Come back with us to 1900's England and see the world through Horace's box camera.
