DEUS EX MACHINA is a free-hand digital print utilizing the Adobe Program. It is printed in a limited edition of 50. During my early years, I was an Abstract-Expressionist painter and although my current Form is figural, I periodically get a hankering to create abstract works free from the restrictions of the figure. DEUS EX MACHINA- The Fable: Most recently, I’ve become fascinated with a fictional village called “Toonerville” through which I happened to “meander” during an afternoon nap. Upon considerable reflection, I’ve begun to think it’s quite possible that my mission as regards this newly discovered hamlet is to observe and report on its various local happenings ranging from the mundane to the supernatural. The print, “Deus Ex Machina”, is one of the first of these Observations. It documents a remarkable and unique event wherein a “god” is suddenly and miraculously created by an ancient mysterious machine, long forgotten, in an abandoned factory. As far as I can tell, the purpose of this god is to solve the many overwhelming problems that have bedeviled the good citizens of Toonerville over the past several years. This, then, becomes the story that asks these questions: Will this deity be successful?! Will we continue to be privy to future Events? We shall see...

I'm a figural artist of "Romantic" persuasion. I'm also a painter/printmaker who's aware that drawing is the genesis of all of my work. My primary "vehicle" of expression over the years has been an on-going Series of paintings and prints titled "GNOMEGAME". It's guiding CONCEPT relates to the revelation and personification of universal human attitudes ranging from foibles to the darker edges of human nature. My awareness of the particular "attitude" being manifested on the picture plane usually crystallizes as the work unfolds. That is, I don't preconceive. Perhaps this approach is the result of my early years as an Abstract-Expressionist. I have the greatest faith in intuition and the truth it generates. As a teacher, I consider drawing to be an indispensable discipline for visual artists of all persuasions, be they academic, classical, abstractionist and even the non-objective artist. The best and limitless source of ideas and inspiration is nature itself. The danger for visual artists is that they begin to echo themselves with each work becoming more shallow and boring than the previous effort. Nature, in whatever form, the figure, still-life or landscape, are sources which replenish, refresh and motivate one's work. www.bensco.com/holle http://www.artslant.com/global/artists/show/49496-fred-holle
