Below are Paul Michael’s Artist Biography, Artist Statement and 5 of his digital artworks that were submitted to this competition.
Paul Michael Glaser was born into a creative family in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Throughout his early years he was inspired by his father’s well known original architectural designs and art collection, his mother’s creative gift of storytelling and the entire family’s passion for theatre, museums, gallery art and symphonies.
Glaser graduated from Tulane University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theatre and English and a Masters Degree in Theatre Arts from Boston University.
Throughout his twenties he continued act, draw, paint, and write poetry and screenplays. He played the role of Perchik in the acclaimed film Fiddler on the Roof; in later years, he toured Europe as Tevye in the stage version of that work. In 1974, Glaser was chosen out of hundreds of actors to play a leading role on the award-winning television series Starsky and Hutch which to this day continues to attract world-wide viewership. The keen viewer will often see Glaser's artwork in many of the TV series scenes.
Glaser grew in a variety of disciplines including directing, creating, writing and production. He published a successful book, “Chrystallia And The Source Of Light”, and a book of his artwork integrated with poetry, "The Edge of Whimsy."
In August 2020, Glaser created a new Website, PMGlaserART, through which he has sold over 1,700 of his artistic offerings throughout the world. Additionally, Glaser has been invited to associate with multiple galleries throughout the United States and the United Kingdom through which the demand for his artwork continues to thrive.
My style of artwork emanates from the many facets of my life, both joyous and tragic and full of incredible highs and unbearable lows. In my art I enjoy inhabiting contradiction and irony, sometimes humorous, sometimes painful, each conflicting with while illuminating the other. To experience both, for me, is the edge of whimsy.
I have spent much of my time in recent years devoted to 21st century modern art disciplines. Abstracts, body-forms, and portraits are represented in my collections, as are the creatures and every-day objects which draw in the eye for their colors, unique digital brush work and other worldliness. I equally enjoy expressing my art through digital painting, pencil and charcoal, painted sketches, and illustrations.
In my professional career, I was fortunate to be a part of such an iconic show, and I’ve also been privileged to have the opportunity and the platform to find my own voice, or maybe voices through these artworks. I’m quite a private person, but I’m grateful for the encouragement I’ve had that’s given me the impetus to share this work.
My work with my late wife's Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric Aids Foundation is still a primary focus, and I plan to continue to integrate my art into the furthering of this life-saving passion.

Rich DiSilvio was born in NY and lives on Long Island. He studied art in college and at the Traditional Academy of Painting, under a protégé of Norman Rockwell.
With a solid foundation in realism, DiSilvio ventured into surrealism, fantasy, and sci-fi art, being inspired by such artists as Salvador Dali, Frank Frazetta and Roger Dean. DiSilvio’s goals as he states “is to focus on the one ability that humans have that no other earthly creature shares, namely the imagination.” He works in oils and acrylics, with an emphasis on digital and photo-manipulation in recent years.

His works appear in private and corporate collections, in the 9-11 Memorial Museum and Italian-American museum in NYC, while his painting of the famous composer Peter Tchaikovsky resides at the Tchaikovsky Estate Museum in Votkinsk, Russia.
Artist Statement
The Animal Series is based primarily on two premises, namely that our fellow inhabitants have always enamored humans, be they domesticated and friendly or wild predators. As such, they make appealing subject matter.
And second is that the human species differs from the animal kingdom in its ability to create what does not exist, as the imagination is not something our fellow creatures share. Thus, this series celebrates those combined aspects, to be either whimsical or provocative.

Congratulations to Lillian Anna Blouin for her acceptance into Fusion Art's Featured Artist Members Gallery.
Lillian Anna Blouin is an award-winning, hyper realistic artist based in Newport Beach, California, USA.
After receiving a BA in Illustration from Laguna College of Art and Design, she went on and built a successful career as an illustrator. However, after showcasing in several galleries within California, she quickly found much more fulfillment within the fine art community.
Lillian has a unique way of taking ordinary objects and creating surrealistic worlds. A devoted student of hyper-realism Lillian’s unique style of painting seeks to bridge together the worlds of the real and the unreal. Each piece is a surreal exploration of everyday objects with multiple interpretations behind each painting.
Lillian was awarded 1st Place Overall/Best in Show for her artwork, "Disordered Mind," in the Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery’s 6th Annual “Patters, Textures & Forms” Online Art Exhibition in October 2022 and selected this Featured Artist membership as her award.
"Disordered Mind," uses the image of a Rubix Cube to symbolize a mind in turmoil. The mind of the cube has been scrambled, put in disarray, and even broken held together only in the most unstable of ways. This was meant to represent how many people felt after the pandemic, our minds tired and unfocused our plans broken and scrambled.
Lillian also won 5th Place in LST’s “Created in Isolation” Art Exhibition in the Spring/Summer of 2020.
She is a Fusion Art Featured Artist Member. Click below to visit her member artist webpage and to learn more about her.
