NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER

“The job is what you do when you are told what to do. The job is
showing up at the factory, following instructions, meeting spec,
and being managed. Someone can always do your job a little bet-
ter or faster or cheaper than you can. The job might be difficult,
it might require skill, but it’s a job. Your art is what you do when no
one can tell you exactly how to do it. Your art is the act of taking per-
sonal responsibility, challenging the status quo, and changing people.
I call the process of doing your art ‘the work.’ It’s possible to have a job
and do the work, too… The job is not the work.” – Seth Godin, Linchpin:
Are You Indispensable?

Our mission is to connect and build a bridge between artists and art lovers by providing and
presenting a high quality source of visual art and design through our book, website, magazine

and joy, beauty and satisfaction to the art lovers let them be collectors, buyers, galleries, cura-
tors or others taking pleasure in art and design.

This idea was embraced by 155 artists from 25 countries all over the world and this is why we
believe that Hidden Treasure Art Magazine Yearbook has so much to offer both to the Artist
and to the Readers.

Born in Uzhorod, Ukraine in 1960, Joseph Coban moved with his family to Czechoslovakia
in 1972. Then, in 1999 he moved to Ottawa with his own family. As a graduate of three col-
leges in the Czech Republic, he studied art history, technology and design. Joseph updated his
education in 2002 at the International Academy of Design and Technology in Ottawa. After
years of working for companies in different fields, Joseph decided to try working on his own
and is now working on many projects and commissions, which involve a variety of aspects
to create artworks. Over the years his painting style and techniques have developed and

broadened. Joseph’s favorite style is realism and
portraiture, as well as that of old masters’ paint-
ings as they have stories and hidden messages
to tell. From one day to the next, Joseph is able
to switch to completely different subjects and
styles. He says, “Life would be very boring if
one does only one thing over again and again”.

Close to you „I wanted to break
mixed technique on wood the grey with my
70x130 cm colours.” Experi-
2012 menting with dif-
ferent materials,
portraying colours
in 3D, trying out
different substanc-
es as surfaces are
all parts of her
genuine artistic view. ”I am constantly
looking for the harmony of the composi-
tion, shape and colour should synchro-
nise on a novel way. I often sacrifice
figures by painting only parts of them,
so that composition can be even more
harmonious.”

She often divides her paintings: one pic-
ture is a compound of two or more piec-
es. Finally the work is put together into
the whole from the missing parts of the
mosaics. For many years she was paint-
ing on wood to use its raw surface, as
the most suitable medium for her paint-
ings. On her latest paintings she com-
bines the canvas with wood and the two
media with different material properties
will finally fit together organically. The
body as a medium of expression and a
complex symbol, has remained a sub-
ject of her fans. She is preparing her
individual unanimous faceless body im-
ages by this investigation.

tightly rendered flowers show a great attention to detail, an eye for de-
picting delicate petal textures, and a love for bright color combinations.
Light is a central theme in Alexandra’s paintings. The play of light and
shadow give her work great visual appeal and interest. Alexandra be-
lieves that works of art should be uplifting and stimulating to the senses.

Working in an array of media including digital art, watercolor, ink and
pencil, Debbee Sheppard’s consistently stunning works fuse a subtle
minimalism with organic figuration and translucent, bleeding waves of
color. Her work, derived from daily experiences, personal trials, and her
direct environment, is at times aloof and systematic. The artist’s imagery
springs from a willful and imaginary reservoir incorporating conceptual
and purely visual values within an infinitely layered and rich dialogue.
American artist Debbee Sheppard is a freelance graphic designer, artist,

Francesco Sandrelli is
a self-taught artist from
Castiglion Fiorentino,
Tuscany. He had art
exhibitions in France,
Canada, UK and the
United States. Although
he had a keen interest
in drawing since early
childhood, he began
to paint in the eighties, attending a private
school in Florence. After four years spent in
school, he felt exhausted and went to hos-
pital for art therapy in painting. From 1994,
he paints again. His works during this peri-
od reflect a grande love for his family. For a
while he paints large canvases, especially in
remembrance of childhood memories, sensa-
tions and dreams: his virtual storytelling mix-
es fairytales with inner visions, combining
imperfection with sharpness and abstraction
with figurative. Sometimes feeling everything
farce around, Francesco is striving to find
sense in turmoil through painting.

SPB 05 I have always been interested in
oil on canvas art, spending hours drawing since
94x94 cm early childhood. I went to art col-
2011 lege, but soon realized that the
SPB 02 most important thing for me was
acrilic & oil on canvas to be able to develop my indi-
108x81 cm vidual style, not focus on learning
2011 the specific things taught there.
I work in oil or acrylic on can-
vas, and am inspired by the world
around me. I create landscapes
which sometimes verge on ab-
straction. I am continually search-
ing for perfection, not worrying
about particular subjects but rath-
er on composing something that is
‘right’ in an inexplicable sense.

In the early 2000’s, after receiving a BFA in Drawing from ACAD, Jeff
Tallon lived throughout Canada, Europe and Asia. These experiences in-
form the global yet local nature of his work and question nationalism,
truth, identity, commerce, consumerism and communication.
Since 2009, Tallon has been synthesizing painting and technology. Some
of his paintings include QR Codes, which allow viewers to capture con-
tent using a hand-held device.
Tallon’s initial interactive paintings sent text messages to participants cre-
ating a sense of faux-intimacy. Subsequently, the breadth of his work has
grown to unite photography, oil paint, text, audio/video and the Internet.

This abstract series explodes across the
canvas thriving upon new and illumi-
nating paints. By combining layers of
modern paints, such as interference,
pearl, and chrome, with more tradi-
tional colours I’ve managed to create
a revolutionary concept of introspec-
tive depth. This gives an unprecedent-
ed element of movement and change
that cannot be captured on film. The
luminous pigments and reflections in
the paint cause it to glow and shift, en-
gaging the recipient with extraordinary
patterns that transform with light and
perspective.

Geometric and mathematical layer in harmony and depth, with a three dimensional visual
effect, in perfect synch with the optical art, fractal, exactness, perfection in space, structures,
shapes, visual elements, optical space, light and color. Perfection. A close perspective causes
a sensation of movement, triggering the imagination, creativity and perception, order, preci-
sion and patience. Each layer is painted in complete harmony and a perfect symmetry in
relation to the drawing. Absolute control of the technical details in scale, balance, geometric
abstract painting, numbers and degree, resolution of shapes with three-dimensional move-
ments; in a nutshell: the color. Self-taught artist.

Painter and Photographer, after a period living in Berlin, established her
atelier in Brasilia. Art critic Emanuel Von Lauenstein Massarani wrote:
“What is striking about the art of Analu Mikosz is the extreme coher-
ence of style which results from a previous painstaking analysis of forms.
Analu Mikosz creates a whole new world, where a sober and geometric
landscape comes to life by means of evanescent tones which articulate
a chromatic rhythm pattern. Gateways, arches, porticos, insinuate an
illusion of depth and a mysterious atmosphere. Her works achieves a
consistent symbiosis of two forms of expression: photography and paint-
ing.” Catalogued artist, One can find her works in art collections in Eu-
rope and Brazil.

Leon Oks is able smoothly weave his ba-
sic underlying foundation into a tapestry
of his own unique fanciful inspiration. As
one very important catalyst for his interior
vision, he uses the female form. He paints
her with dynamic movement, graceful lyri-
cal lines and resplendent sensuous beauty.
In his bittersweet years in the Ukraine, Leon
Oks is able to retrieve the sweetness and ig-
nore the bitterness. He paints, charming vil-
lages, smooth flowing colorful landscapes,
and swaying birch trees, alive. The mood is
warm, and seductive, as we distinguish the
depth and emotional power of Leon’s work.
Mr. Oks received many first place awards
nationally and worldwide. His paintings are
in museums, private collections and corpo-
rations.

resented by Asan Gallery (South

reflects his observations of Chi-
nese society, both foreign and

Hiromi Iuchi
79x46 inches

1995

Philip Lawrence Sherrod has been painting
raw, earthy expressionist pictures for more
than two decades. ERRATUM: 5*DEC-
ADES(!) Now that expressionism is back in
vogue, one would expect his work to be
hailed by critics as a typical manifestation
of the new spirit, but that hasn’t happened.
It may be that his work is too authentically
expressionist and that the new fashion in
expressionism calls for a self-conciousness
and hip reference to sources that Sher-
rod’s painting doesn’t contain. It isn’t that

his work is without
sources: Delacroix, Van Gogh, Ensor, Soutine come immediately to
mind. And it isn’t that he is naive; like most artists he takes what is useful
to him from imagery around him. But his paintings are direct expressions
of what is going on inside his mind. They are uncalculated, unedited,
and some-times almost unbearably vulgar outpourings of his psyche,
diametrically opposed to the contrived emotionalism of the more so-
phisticated ’neo-expressionists.’ Sherrod’s paintings/-often embarrass us,
for they allow us to peer more deeply into the churning mind of the
artist than is comfort-
able. There are feel-
ings and yearnings revealed that we would,
perhaps, rather not know about. But isn’t
that what authentic expressionism is really
about? Expressionism is not a particular
style or manner of painting, but a sponta-
neous outpouring of the ideas, images, and
emotions at the core of the artist’s life. That
is what Philip Sherrod is giving us; whether
we like it or not, whether the critics rec-
ognize him or not. It is the only way he
can paint. Excerpt from Foreword/-Sherrod
