Tuesday Schmidt & Sarah White: Invisible Strings

April 1, 2025 By Blue Gallery

Not unlike wearing emotions on a sleeve, artists tend to keep them on their brushes. The intuitive style Sarah White has developed stems from her ability to express emotions and work through thoughts that words simply cannot capture. She lets go of expectations and allows the process to unfold naturally, a practice that has truly become transformative for the young painter.

“It’s not just about creating art; it’s about connecting with myself on a deeper level,” White said. “It’s taught me to trust my instincts, both on and off the canvas, and to embrace the unexpected. That sense of flow and freedom spills into every part of my life, helping me feel more balanced and present.”

“The title Invisible Strings came from this idea that we’re all connected in ways we can’t always see — through people, places, and moments that shape us, often without us realizing it. I’ve always been fascinated by how one small action or encounter can ripple outward and become part of a much bigger story,” White said.* Article by Victoria Moore

Tuesday Schmidt is a professional artist and designer living and working in Kansas City. She earned her BFA in Printmaking from University of Missouri Kansas City. Collaborative art experiences have been a significant influence in her creative process. Her current work explores taking her studies in watercolor in small formats and transitioning that work to considerably larger canvases. The intimacy of detail mixed with spontaneity and exploration have been the key informers in her recent work. Additionally, she is an illustrator, installation designer and trend researcher for Hallmark Cards.

Cerbera Gallery Presents: “CRAFTED WORLDS – BETWEEN LIGHT AND SHADOW” | Works by Golfam Jozdani

March 31, 2025 By info@cerberagallery.com

“CRAFTED WORLDS –

BETWEEN LIGHT AND SHADOW”

Mixed Media Works on Paper by

Golfam Jozdani

April – May ’25

Golfam Jozdani’s series is inspired by the game Minecraft. In this game, each player can create their parallel world with extraterrestrial forces and unlimited resources. This world features many positive and negative characters. Her passion for depicting this world and its characters through art led to the creation of this series.

Her constant concern for creating a parallel world, one that her inner self is always seeking, fueled this excitement and passion. If she cannot protect the pure and positive characters or defeat evil in reality, she can create their characters side by side through her art.

This creation aims to bring about peace, turn inequality into equality and justice, and transform every wickedness into beauty. Golfam aspires to create peace and equality in her parallel world and show people that instead of being bad, we can be good, accept differences, and live with love.
