The Creation Cries Out by Stephen J. Vattimo

Medium : Acrylic on canvas Size: 2’ x 4’ Year painted :1998 This painting was done for my sister. she loves Dolphins and she asked me when will i paint a picture for her. When I consider doing this painting I thought about how could I design a illustration that would use the names of fish to teach her the attributes Jesus had being the Son of God and Savior of the world. / The names of the fish who reveal some thing about Jesus’ character are labeled in red, just as word that are spoken by Jesus are printed in red in a red letter edition Bible. The fish who labeled are blue are different breeds of Angel fish / Three dolphin represent the trinity of God, the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. / The silhouette of the three men on crosses represent the price Jesus paid on the cross to buy man out of slavery of sin and deliver man from being cast into the eternal lake of fire. / The black and white fish is called a Sheep Head. John the baptist had call Jesus the lamb of GOD who would take away the sins of the world . / The reddish orange fish is called a Flaming Angel . John said that he baptized people with water to call themselves back to God and to repent from their sins. He said that Jesus would baptize with fire the person called the Holy Spirit.The gold yellow colored fish is called the Shepherd Angel. In the Bible Jesus is referred to being the good shepherd because He takes care of His followers as a sheep herder would take care His sheep. He provides for their needs and protect s them from danger. / The brow fish with the fanned out fins is called a Lion fish. The Bible call Jesus the lion of Judea. Jesus first came to the earth to deliver man kind from sin by offering His live to pay for our sin. the second time He comes, He will come to set up His earthly kingdom and rule over all the nations for a thousand years. / The small fish with a scarlet color head is called a King Demoiselle fish. Jesus will have all authority to rule over all the nations given to Him From God The Father / The large orange fish with the green fins is call a Rainbow parrot. The rainbow represent a covenant between man and God. Just as God put a rainbow in the sky once the great flood ended to remind man of Gods promise not to destroy the world by flood again. So do we have a covenant through the blood of Jesus that if man will except the terms to be delivered from sin it’s eternal punishment, .and turn from pursuing a rebellious life toward God’s. God will give them eternal life. / The sleek brown and white fish is called a school Master. Jesus spent his last three year of His life teach about who God is, What heaven is like, what hell is like, What is sin and how it keeps man separated from God. what is God’s plan to redeem man from sin. He taught how man should live to be pleasing in God’s sight.
Hormonal by nirvanavisions

A tiny but expressive acrylic on canvas. With no pre-drawing underneath, just painting from a blank canvas as if sculpting from thin air.
Santa Cruz by ArtByDrew

I smell the salt and redwood trees / Mixed gently by the coastal breeze / A natural scent that guarantees / To always place my mind at ease / / On coastal meadows flowers bloom / And sway in breeze like nature’s broom / While all about the bees do zoom / So much for my eyes to consume / / The vast Pacific adds more still / As backdrop to this flowered hill / Across this landscape colors spill / To give my heart and soul a thrill / / The redwoods stand behind me tall / To touch the sky with mighty sprawl / Not even violent ocean squall / Can make these giants bend or fall / / All this in place named Santa Cruz / Where nature paints with all known hues / To leave behind such scenic views / To treat our eyes, and soul infuse / / This fractal artwork was inspired by the Santa Cruz area of California. Santa Cruz lies at the northernmost point of the famous Monterey Bay. I lived in this area for awhile about thirty years ago, and the beauty of this place remains vibrant in my mind. There is a wonderful biodiversity of animal and plant life on both the land and within the sea along this coast, that is unique to any other place I have been. / / I lived in an old Airstream trailer on some beautiful land here, right where the meadow met the forest. Just to the east of the trailer a thick, redwood rain forest began, and to the west were the gently sloping meadows that ran to the sea. This artwork shows the view across that coastal meadow, with all the wildflowers in bloom. I think one of the reasons it has remained so strong in my mind is you don’t usually encounter a flowered meadow with the Pacific ocean as the backdrop, with both the smell of the forest and the salty air of the sea mingled together. / / This was artwork created in Incendia. This was my first artwork with the new version (1.2) of Incendia that was just released this week. The fractal is exactly as it was rendered. The only post-processing was to crop it just a hair to bring it to a more common printing size. The original artwork is 3000×3000 pixels at 300 pixels per inch. The details are difficult to see over the internet, so I have included a few detail cutaways to give you a better idea of the overall detail of the artwork. The cutaways are at 50% of the original size. / / / / / / / /
Food of Life by Joseph Barbara

This is the result of a dream that I expirienced,seeing my hands emerging from the ground and the Host floating on top of a golden chalice overflowing with blood. A marvelous interconnection with the exact moment during Mass when the bread and wine change into the holy body and blood of Christ for the well being of all mankind. / Acrylic on canvas painting, measuring 86cm X 100cm. and exhibited in the 2005 Biennale of Contemporary Christian Art.

About This Group

Remodernism is an alternative to the established High Art hegemony, known as Post-Modernism, and its institutionalized cynicism and ironic detachment.

As an Art Movement, it is somewhat unusual, insofar as it is defined by the artists’ intentions, rather than by any formal qualities of the artwork. In other words, Remodernism is a way of thinking about art, and the purpose of art, rather than a specific way of making it.

Briefly, Remodernists do not think that Modern Art is rubbish, we do not believe that communication via art is impossible, and we do believe that one of the legitimate goals of an artist can be the sincere expression of an authentic personal spirituality.

Spirituality does not equal religion. Religion is about beliefs and following rules. Spirituality is about the search for truth and Love.
