Unfortunately with success comes imitation. The innovative artists who find success by creating original, unique works will inevitably be mimicked by copy cat artists trying to make a quick buck. I've personally had to deal with 'copy cat artists' copying my wording, my marketing, and my style, and I'm not alone. For this reason, myself, and other artists who have also fallen victim to copy cat artists, banded together to form the elite art group IBND. If you are a collector who wishes to support truly ORIGINAL art please be sure to search IBND on eBay. IBND: Imitated But NEVER Duplicated. SEARCH IBND for exceptional, cutting-edge works from the artists who create not imitate! Thank-you to all of our collectors and fellow artists who have sent us such positive feedback! It is truly appreciated. For more info on IBND go to... http://www.ibnd.org

RECENT SHOW APRIL 1, 2004: FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST SESILLIE GIRELLI SESILLIE'S ARTIST STATEMENT For as long as I can remember, art has been an important part of my personal identity. To be able to capture the world around me and express how I see it, how I feel it and how it affects me. This is what drives me to paint. Art can express many facets of the human experience. My goal is to express its beauty. INTENSIFIED REALISM. This is a term that has been used to describe my style and I would have to agree. My composition and subject matter is grounded in realism. That is to say that you can find an interesting story to tell in the common experiences we witness on a daily basis. Inspired by the Impressionists, I paint not the object itself, but the way light hits the surface of the object. Broken brush strokes show the flicker of light and create a feeling of movement. I enjoy using vibrant and stimulating, rich colors to bring out the life of the objects and scenery I paint. I often employ the use of perspective to bring the viewer into the painting. These are tools I continue to develop to involve the viewer with my vision. I hope you feel the same emotion from my paintings that I get from creating them. BIOGRAPHY OF SESILLIE GIRELLI Sesillie Girelli was born Sesillie Michelle Price in the Central Oregon town of Bend. With the exception of a few years on the island of Kauai, Sesillie has lived in the high desert region east of the Cascade Mountains. In this panoramic setting with its varied seasons, Sesillie has developed into the artist that she is today. Her earliest memories involve the pursuit of artistic endeavors. As a child she loved animals and was constantly drawing or painting animals. Throughout school she was always involved in whatever art classes were available. Her work was always on display, and she was always receiving awards throughout primary school. Some people discover their artistic inclinations later in life, but Sesillie was in tune with this part of herself from a very early age. While pursuing a Bachelor of Art in Fine Art, Sesillie studied under Professor Lance Hunter for over three years while she continued her education in art. With a curriculum that focused on a representational approach, Sesillie developed her technique. Combined with her personality, this guidance enhanced her ability to create a style that is appreciated by anyone who sees her work. The drive that this artist has is one of kind. Her all or nothing approach is a hallmark of her personality. She has carried this into her love of snowboarding. Sesillie was a sponsored, competitive snowboarder for several years, competing in national events such as The Vans Triple Crown and Grand Prix.These events have taken her on road trips all throughout the western United States and Canada. Always equipped with her camera, Sesillie has gathered an exhaustive amount of resource photos for her art. With a love of travel, she has collected resource photos from all over the US to Europe. Sesillie loves to people watch, and much of her art focuses on capturing the moment of human activity. Sesillie's intuition allows her to see beauty while it happens. Whether it's the subtleties of a candid view of people, or the awe of a magnificent landscape, Sesillie's ability to focus and capture scenes that make life worth living is quickly gaining popularity. Currently Sesillie has caught the attention of a growing number of private collectors. She has done commissioned pieces and has sold her work to people all across the US and internationally to countries such as England, Ireland, Australia, Canada, Spain, Peurto Rico, and Singapore. As an artist, Sesillie continues to grow. She is constantly experimenting with, and refining her work. Equipped with talent, skill and a strong work ethic, Sesillie Girelli is an artist to watch. click here to subscribe to the mailing list (send a blank email) EXHIBITS & AWARDS 1998 Annual Show Pinckney Center for the Arts 1998 Featured Artist Blue Sky Gallery 1998 Merit Award Pinckney Center for the Arts 1998-1999 Talent Grant OSU/COCC 1999 Annual Show Pinckney Center for the Arts 1999 Featured Artist Art Hop (Local Joe, Bend OR) 1999-2000 Talent Grant OSU/COCC 2000 Annual Show Pinckney Center for the Arts 2000 Featured Artist Art Hop (Local Joe, Bend OR) 2000-2001 Talent Grant OSU/COCC 2001 Annual Show Pinckney Center for the Arts 2001 Featured Artist Grandview Ballroom 2001-2002 Talent Grant OSU/COCC 2002 Featured Artist Sunriver Lodge Upper Gallery 2002 August--"High Desert Visions" show--Mirror Pond Gallery (2nd place juried show) 2002 August Featured Artist and Demonstration Sunriver Lodge Upper Gallery 2002 October Featured Artist Art Hop (Face to Face, Bend OR) 2002 December Featured Artist Demonstration, Kastler Gallery 2003 April Featured Artist Art Hop (Face to Face, Bend OR) 2002-2003 November-January Featured Artist Kastler Gallery (Bend, OR) 2002-2003 December-present Featured Artist Gallery de Novo (Sun Valley, Idaho) 2003 May-October--one of the 15 winners of the Top Art Sellers Contest (eBay) AWARD: established art sellers advertisement on the Art Portal page 2003 June-present Featured Artist Wene Gallery (Portland, Oregon) 2003 May-present Featured Artist Masterpiecearts.com 2003 June--published article in the online magazine artsiteguide.com 2003 September 4th--solo exhibition: Charlie White Gallery 2003 October-2004 May Featured Artist E.S.
