About About Me:I have always excelled in art as a young girl and my interest developed into passion which I have pursued and earned degree in fine arts in Prague, Czech Republic. I have participated and won several awards in various exhibitions in contemporary art galleries in Florida, and recently after moving to Southern California in Los Angeles. Today my easel and palette are my constant companions. I continue to paint, as I always have, because it seems like the only comfortable way to live. Painting makes me feel good. And my paintings seem to make others feel good, too. All in all, a good thing. As an artist, and as a woman, I am about gathering: fragments, feelings, friends . . . our many selves, colors, and shapes. Captivated by color and the human form, my paintings express my passion for life. They reveal personal and collective history in layers of possibility, layers of truths uncovered. My work is a vehicle for constant conversation between the seen and the unseen. My creative process is a bridge between unconscious and conscious experience. In the sensual exhilaration of putting paint to canvas.Previously exhibited at:James Harper Fine Arts Gallery, Daytona Beach FLArt League of Daytona Beach FLGoDo Gallery, Glendale CAMy work is also featured at Artoteque in London's acclaimed Canary Wharf.Recent Exhibitions:September 2009: EROTICA Art Of The Deviant.October 2009: GOTh Art?February 2010: 2x2July 2010: Figuratively Speaking...December 2010: DecArtToneJune 2011: Private Party ExhibitionJuly 2011: The Hive GalleryAugust 2011: Bee-rotica: The Hive GallerySeptember 8th 2011: Art Walk, Art-EDecember 3rd 2011: Price...Less, The Hive GalleryPlease feel free to join me on Facebook and MySpace!www.facebook.com/EmKotoul http://www.myspace.com/emkotoulThank you for your support.Em
