Hello, AltArtLI.Com members, welcome to another installment of Rant!, the offical monthly newsletter of Alternative Arts of Long Island. We would like to welcome all of our new members and artists to the Alternative Arts of Long Island community.

Jack Roman Photography   Alternative Arts of Long Island is proud to welcome photographer/sculptor Jack Roman to the site. When we first came across Jack Roman's photography, the feeling of his work blew us away. Jack Roman takes great joy in documenting moments with his camera, telling stories and using images to convey emotion. Whether it's photographing an event, taking portraits, or shooting images to better sell a service, product, or company, Jack is there with his camera, enjoying the interactions with others while capturing and creating.

Along with photography, Jack Roman is also showing some amazing sculpture on the site that is well worth checking out. Jack incorporates light into art to express the light and dark energy in his own personality. All of Jack Roman's work is phenomenal and speaks for it's self. Check out Jack's work and let him know what you think.   Jack Roman Sculpture

The Switch Board:
ATT ALL ALTARTLI ARTISTS: WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK

Tord and I are in the middle of our weekly meeting and the idea of doing interviews with the artists and posting them on the site came up. We think it is a good idea, but we would like to get feedback on this.

Also, we are in the middle of making changes to the site. Now would be the time to let us know what you would like to see on the site. If you have any ideas or opinions, let us know.
