We are delighted to publish our fifthteenth Portrait of an Artist Challenge Results Showcase. Since there not an exact definition for the concept of magic, the concept remains a beautiful mystery. If the magic is in or out ourselves, only our own lives will show us. Nevertheless, the power of the magical self is beautiful. Here are the best submissions of our challenge.

Mobile Photography & Art – Portrait of an Artist – Seeing Through The Eyes Of Oola Cristina

28/11/201828/11/2018 by Ile Mont

We are delighted to bring to you the twelfth in our brand new series of interviews within our Portrait of an Artist column entitled “Seeing through the eyes…”. This is a section that has been created by our wonderful Portrait of an Artist Editor, Ile Mont. Mont has been inspired by the life and works of Carolyn Hall Young, as so many of us have. Young was the main contributor to our Portrait of an Artist Flickr pool and filled it with portraits of so many wonderful people, not only of herself. It is for this reason that Mont wanted to create this section, to enable us to view the artists style through their own eyes. At the end of each interview, Mont will keep Young’s tradition alive, with a portrait of herself, seen through the eyes of the artist. In this case, you will see that at the end of this interview there is a portrait of Mont, seen through the eyes of Oola Cristina, what a gift!

Please continue to post your mobile portraiture to our dedicated Flickr group, this way, Mont will search through these artists first to interview. (Foreword by Joanne Carter).

02/11/201802/11/2018 by Judy Wahlberg

I am so excited to publish this brand new interview with Judy Lurie Wahlberg. One of the many reasons I created this series of interviews was to allow each artist to take the time to appreciate the many other artists in our community and to share those thoughts with them and also the world. I adore it when I read comments from one artist to another thanking them for including them within this series, my eyes fill with joy, what power you bring to each other, such happiness, such motivation to create more. This is how we grow, we bring each other up. As my very dear friend and artist Carolyn Hall Young would say ‘this life is not a competitive sport, or a war and we can always choose to be eternally grateful. Humans need the support of the community, fear keeps you isolated”. Know that TheAppWhisperer community has your back it is a place of nourishment, this is our safe place, enjoy, please read on….

We are delighted to bring you the thirteenth in our brand new “Mobile Art and Photography that has Influenced Me” series of interviews at TheAppWhisperer.

Each one relates to mobile art and photography that has inveigled and continues to impact them, by other mobile artists throughout the world.
