TAG- tubes artists gallery TAG#2 Tubes Artists Gallery | Page 3

a few words about this issue from the painters Tubes Gallery Curator, Denis Taylor. We are so lucky to live in a time where Art and painting in particular is so diverse and so readily available to view - remotely or otherwise. I have visited the studios of a number of the artists featured in TAG issue #2 - And I must admit that it is the best way of really ‘seeing’ the work and delving deeper into what the artists create and why. However, there are a few on show that I have had the pleasure of discussing their art (and other activities) by way of ‘live’ on-screen chats. This was the case with our guest artists Amanda and Peter Worral who live and work from their home studios in New Zealand. Our talk centred around the artists development of 3D galleries, something I have personally been following with great interest since 2007. Their combined talents include TV video productions as well as fine art. This technical understanding gave them the knowledge of the digital problems and the solutions, to enable them to create a program which, in my opinion, is one of the best 3D platforms that I have tried and tested. With the increase in speed of all devices, from mobile ipads to smart phones, the 3D exhibition world has now become a dynamic real- ity with limitless possibilities to help promote and sell a work of Art to a much wider and culturally diverse audience. painters TUBES magazine have planned to introduce this new 3D platform for artists groups and individuals, as a welcome addition for our on line audience, which is now approaching 90,000. The new platform will help open even further our growing global audience for the work of artist and for painters in particular. TUBES magazine will advise all fellow artists and readers of this exciting development of the magazines reach and artists work presentations, for both groups, galleries and solo exhibitions closer to the launch date of September 2019. Three super artists in TAG #2 are Gregory Evans, Chris Oddie and Clare Thatcher All three are totally different painters, but equally talented and original. Tubes are also delighted to welcome Shirley Fletcher, an artist I have admired for some years and now can finally introduce her powerful and thoughtful artwork to our readers in mainland Europe, the USA and beyond. And I have to thank Matrianne Arnberg for suggesting my own art been shown in this issue and writing the summary. I must also mention, Gerry Halpin, Malcolm Taylor and Ron Coleman, who between them not only create unique and stunning paintings, but also have worked with dedication to help and enlarge the artists community in the North of England and beyond through the Manchester Fine Art Academy and the Stockport Guild of Artists .. photograph: Artist and TUBES Gallery curator.
