now airs twice a week. details here:

Every aRtist has a unique style,
working with different
mediums and using their own techniques and methods to filter out
& portray an idea or subject as they see it. Some work with color
filters, water filters or even water colors to create an aRt piece
to share with the world. Others may choose to use
oil paints, purified
water, paint filters, bold colors and shapes...
I, indeed, have my
own style of representing my feelings and sharing my aRt with
others. Please look below to see some examples of
galleries I've participated in if you are interested in my own
aRt style.
Self Portal: Amplified
Chameleon
photographs by Shannon Kringen
I tend towards being an introspective person. I use my camera to
create Self Portraits that amplify and exaggerate different aspects
of Myself that would otherwise remain hidden within and silent.
A chameleon like variety of Passionate Self Portrait Photographs
capturing very different facets. From black and white high contrast
to full color in natural light with face paint to the distorted face
reflected in chrome. Images that symbolize the paradox of being one
person and yet having many different sides to oneself
simultaneously. The Self Portrait could be seen as a metaphor using
the I to represent the Macrocasm of how many different cultures we
have on the planet yet it's all one humankind.
