Albert Schweitzer: Artist

Artist Statement

Quirky characters is what I paint. Much of the time,
I let spontaneity and being open create the characters first. I later then organize these beings and put them in an environment where they live and interact with each other. The use of fluid lines and splashy shapes make up the paintings and sculptures. I use bright colors to add cheer
to the sometimes dark and ominous states of some of these characters. At times, these images are autobiographical,
and sometimes they are of people I know or have experienced. It is my intention that I paint a world that
is filled with the various states of the human condition
and how they relate to the rest of the world.

Apple Insider Leaks Ultra-Portable Details




An Apple insider told Wired today that the company's new ultraportable, expected to be seen in public for the first time tomorrow, has an extremely thin profile and is shaped like a teardrop when closed — thicker at the top behind the screen, tapering at the bottom behind the keyboard. "It's unbelievably thin," said the source.
