I’m in the EndWorks: Out of Darkness Show
My piece is about how the shards of violence are very dramatic and demanding, in our face and catching our attention, but that hope is ever glowing, and reassuringly beckoning.
Abstract Art
Diana Sanford (Featured Artist)
There aren’t too many contemporary pastel artists doing terrific abstract work, so I have been delighted to come upon Diana Sanford.
Women Abstract Expressionists
I thought I’d share with you my favorite three new-to-me artists that I read about here.
Qi (New Abstract Conceptualist Collage)
Qi is an indispensable word to Scrabble and Words with Friends players as the only two letter word with a q. But what it means is also cool: “the vital life force that flows through a body.”
I Gave a Talk on Abstraction to the Guilford Arts League
Last night I gave a PowerPoint talk to the Guilford Arts League titled Abstraction: Between Realism and Non-Objective Art.
House by the Bay (new abstract landscape in pastel)
This house by the bay is sourced deep in the recesses of my memory from pouring over too many Architectural Digest magazines as a kid.
From Violence to Hope (New Abstract Pastel)
This most recent concept piece of mine was done for a collaboration between the Cultural Alliance of Western Connecticut and the Women’s Center in Danbury…
New Abstract Pastel: Confidence
Here is my new abstract pastel titled Confidence. It is 18″ x 24″ and done in pastel.
Blu Smith: Featured Artist
I have been enjoying the artwork of Blu Smith recently. We share a similar approach to painting both abstracts and abstract landscapes. I can’t look at these without itching to paint!
New Abstract Pastel: Seven Truths
Here is my abstract painting in pastel that I did yesterday titled Seven Truths. You can see the entire work above and some details below.
Two New Paintings
Whenever I have stuff to work out, painting is my best place besides my prayer chair to do it. I did these paintings yesterday, and felt better afterwards.
