Intentional Images Photography Studio & Designer Neal Golden Team to Launch Unique Digital PhotoART Show
Tonya Vaskevitch is a professional photographer who travels the world shooting major rock stars in addition to many fantastic art images. On the home front, Tonya's studio, Intentional Images, has a veteran full-time staff, which photographs a variety of images including: babies, family portraits, weddings and other events based from her newly opened studio. Intentional Images is located on Old Main Street in Bellevue. Tonya’s husband, David Vaskevitch, has retired from Microsoft after 25+ years as the Senior V.P. David’s career as CTO included reporting directly to Bill Gates III. Tonya and David travel together to various world destinations making archival images along the way. They also make periodic visits to six shared children between them, who are spread out at universities and schools around the country. They are now joining Bellevue artist, Neal Golden to launch, "A Digital Art Pioneer" exhibit with new digital-photo-art-to-products' gallery to show at Intentional Images, and co-hosting a premiere opening party to benefit Eastside Domestic Violence foundation. Tonya Vaskevitch takes it all gracefully in stride. "Community presence is personally important to me. I want to know those around me, and offer my skills and support where I can. Life has treated me well. My husband and I wish to establish giving back precedent in the local community where we live. We find it enriches us personally and artistically to interface with new fantastic emerging talent.”
The first in this
Intentional Images gallery artist series, 'Emerging Bellevue Artists',
features Neal Golden, with "Digital Art from Canvas to Products". Golden,
also a Bellevue resident is a designer and entrepreneur who utilizes
digital photography in unique, new ways - some of which touch on the IT
skills of David Vaskevitch. David formerly headed the Digital Photography
department at Microsoft and as the digital photography expert to the
trade, he weighs in on Neal's new digital ART. With respect to Neal's
abstract art, David explains how drip art, with its layers of rounded
beads of paint, cannot begin to compete with today's digital pallet with
its full range of digital shapes, zigzags, multiple layers, shading and
nuances that are to be found in Golden's gallery-sized museum canvases.
"He seems to have devised ways as an artist and 'pixologist' to pick up
where Jackson Pollock left off." Golden transfers his abstract digital
art images to everything from neckties and scarves; to tennis shoes and
fashion clothing; to wall coverings and backlit-lighted displays. Neal Golden's art is on various media such as canvas, backlit vinyl, and acrylic, Golden will preview his latest creation October 25th. It is a video showing his "Sunset", a 29 multi-layered digital art creation where the colors shift seamlessly from blush pastels to darker gem tones. The work was inspired by a Jeff Koon's jumbo canvas in Portland's Art Museum, which Golden said, 'Caused him to want to see the image change and morph.' He immediately returned home to Bellevue to begin work on creating a morphing, full-color multi-layered image for LED giant screens. The video shows 'Sunset" on an 8 foot x 20 foot screen in Shanghai. Golden hopes he can get museums around the world to feature this work; then, interchange it with other similar Golden digital creations designed for the same screen by changing out an 8 gig chip www.nealgoldendesigns.com/art7 See these websites www.nealgoldendesigns.com/sunset and http://www.nealgoldendesigns.com/ngkineticart1/ . The Exhibit Launch Party of Vaskevitch-Golden Digital Art Show will be held in Tonya Vaskevitch’s Intentional Images Studio at 10032 Main Street on Friday, November 5th, 2010, 4-9 PM. Gourmet food provided by Chutney's of Bellevue and selected wines provided from the Vaskevitchs. The Digital Art exhibit runs until December 3, 2010. A third of all art sales, including canvases, acrylic pieces and customized pieces, that Golden may be retained to design and create for clients, will go to Eastside Domestic Violence Foundation (www.edvp.org ), a foundation that Tonya's been dedicated to for some time. Golden's foundation will assign its profits to EDV, via Bounce Foundation, which assists in fund-raising events for active hands-on beneficiary foundations. (www.bouncefoundation.org ).
