Peter Eoyang
Peter Hsun Eoyang (80) passed away August 11, 2003. Peter was the first Artist to exhibit on Digital Consciousness. In 1972 Peter began to paint watercolors. He mastered a wet in wet technique on French paper and then began to use rice paper and other techniques. He painted landscapes and then flowers. He sometimes used his artistic name Yin Ye. His work has a lightness and a lasting greatness inspired by the natural beauty of Colorado, Oregon and California and by his love of life. He exhibited widely at: Foothills Art Center, Golden Gallery, Gallery E, De Coloras Gallery, the Denver International House, the Colorado State Fair, the Rocky Mountain National show, the Gilpin County Annual Exhibition, the Northern Colorado Invitational, all in Colorado, at the San Diego Watercolor Society's National Exhibition and at numerous sidewalk shows. His work was well received. He won many awards and had many collectors. He came to the United States from China in 1937 with his mother, his brother and his two sisters. He worked as a draftsman and then as a civil engineer until he was 60. He is predeceased by his wife and survived by his son. Erol Erkmen Erol Erkmen is the September 2003 Artist of the month. Erol was born in 1951, resides in Istanbul and is an engineer. His artistic photography began in the 1970's. He discontinued his artwork for 10 years and restarted after 1993. His work arises on 1:1 sized films by using analog dark room techniques. After taking a photogrpah he sketches which effects he will use and which colors that he is going to emphasize. He then creates half-tone color separation films in the darkroom and separates the colors according to his own system. He makes various maskings with the screen films and retouches them with cyanide and special dyes. Some works take months to complete. His astigmatic eye has an effect on this work. This can been seen, for example, in the swivels of the dervishes in his dervish series. New Artists The following artists have registered this month.
