| Introduction | WELCOME! Thanks for dropping by. All images are Copyright Turtel Onli 2012 and other dates. I am looking for the right collectors, galleries, critics, publishers, artists, students, and educators to embrace all things Rhythmistic. In addition to teaching Drawing and Art Appreciation at the Harold Washington College of Chicago I advocate the term Rhythmism as a movement to define artwork of a spiritual-cosmic future-primitif cultural nature. Ideas, genetic memories, and narratives make fertile source material in this genre. It helps to have reasonable technical skill in order to effectively express these ideas. The resulting artwork must be able to withstand criticism based on skills, execution, composition, content, and passion. I am a life long third generation visual artist with two degrees from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Along with being a Cool Globe artist I have exhibited in Paris, New York, Lagos, San Francisco, Munster, Chicago, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and many more places. My life tends to be based around my creative interests. I feel everyone should have a quality collection of visual art. Ownership is the highest form of appreciation. |
