    Visual Arts: Mixed Media, Painting
    I came to Potter Valley in 1973 and live quite remotely near the Eel River. My garden, the natural beauty of Mendocino County, and the plants and animals that surround me give me the majority of my inspiration. I work primarily with watercolor and acrylics and love experimenting with mixed media. I’m in love with my experience with color as I paint, the mingling and mixing of colors on the page. And I love the total engagement that absorbs my full concentration in the process of painting. It’s transforming!

    The common thread present in all of my paintings is playfulness. By engaging the viewer to interact with my paintings, I put them back in touch with a childlike frame of mind. I have developed three styles of interactive kinetic paintings. In the first style, the image seems to be in motion but the movement is in the viewer’s mind. The work is in relief but is painted to appear like a conventional flat picture.     Tintin & l’Affaire de l’Orbe Pourpre – 3D Reverse perspective – acrylic on wood – 40.25×24.25×6 inches vimeo.com/241112870   In the second style, the viewer can manipulate the image into a myriad of possibilities. The Empire 3D acrylic on wood panels 50×50 inches   In the third style, the image changes depending on your position to the painting. The experience is ever changing relative to the angle from which the paintings are viewed . Viewers are able to create their own experience by directing how they wish to see the image morph into another. This active participation provokes a playful complicity between the artwork and the viewer. The King & The Duke – kinetic painting – acrylic on wood- 22 x 37 inches   I place cultural icons and other elements of contemporary popular culture into a new context to illustrate thought provoking social, political or cultural issues. Le Dejeuner revisited – Kinetic painting – acrylic on wood – 36×44 inches My goal is to provoke an element of surprise and playfulness. Nuns with Guns – acrylic on wood panel – 37 x 37 inches _________________________________________________________________ PDFs TO VIEW: Artist Statement Bio PDF Exhibitions Awards Publications PDF 3-D paintings – acrylic on wood 3-D KINETIC Paintings 1 – acrylic on wood 3-D KINETIC Paintings 2 – acrylic on wood 3D_Kinetic_Paintings_3 – acrylic on wood   3-D KINETIC Mona Series 1 – linocut printing 3-D KINETIC Mona Series 2 – linocut printing 2D Cat Series – acrylic on canvas.pdf 2D Cowboy Series – acrylic on canvas.pdf   2-D Mona Series 2D_CAT_Series.pdf 2D_COWBOY_Series.pdf 2-D Alice Series – pencil & acrylic on paper 2-D Canvas 1 Lightbox Water Soluble Color Pencil + Pencil Work Pen & Ink + Whimsical Sculptures Glass Painting ______________________________________________ LINKS TO VIDEOS OPTICAL_ILLUSION_PAINTINGS (07:28):   https://vimeo.com/659623113 COWBOY SERIES    https://vimeo.com/687543720    https://vimeo.com/659599777 Short presentation (5:48) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82oXqi_omn4 Tintin & The Case of The Purple Orb (00:49) The King & The Duke (00:48) Nuns With Guns (00:46) Mona Blue Sky (00:35) Mona Purple Sky (00:39) Pandemonium Fairyland 2 (01:37) Fine Arts Achievements Born in Lyon, France, I worked and lived on three continents before taking residence in California. A freelance graphic artist for businesses and corporations, I have designed movie sets and costumes and illustrated children’s books. I make use of my previous experience in different art forms to develop optical illusion paintings. Previous Achievements A performing musician on three continents, I have written movie soundtracks in France and in the USA. A nominated screenplay writer in America, I have gathered thirteen US movie awards as a movie director and producer. Music: I have performed as a singer/song writer in Europe and Africa and worked as a music producer, writing jingles and film scores in Europe and America and creating Dedicace, a conceptual album reuniting internationally known musicians from four continents. Cult film director Alejandro Jodorowsky used Dedicace extensively in his film Tusk. Film: I wrote, directed and produced The Book, a kitsch science fiction feature film (Invasion Of The Body Snatchers meets Flash Gordon) that pays homage to the sci-fi classics of the 70s and 80s. Official Selection in festivals in America, Australia and Asia, The Book won 13 awards and was hailed as “cult material” by critics and festival audiences.       Watch the trailer and selected scenes from my film The Book Short morphing video created for The Book   https://www.facebook.com/richard.weiss.942

    Visual Arts: Jewelry
    I have always loved to create things. At this point in my life I am focused on handcrafted metal and stone jewelry and the endless possibilities of design and construction. I am often inspired by the stones to create a setting that compliments them or sometimes I concentrate on shapes and textures. I use silver, copper and bronze in my designs and a variety of metalsmithing techniques including hammering, hand patterning, rolling mill, soldering, fusing, and wirework. I am an artist/member of the Corner Gallery in Ukiah. You can find my jewelry on display there and also my acrylic paintings. I have an ETSY shop:   www.StudioWolfard.etsy.com. You can also find me at Safari in the village of Mendocino.
