“La Cage dun Fou” Chalk on Vintage Collaged French Book Pages, 38″ x 36″ by Artist Louise LaPlante
I’ve only been painting for five years and am mostly self-taught. Oil painting has become my passion. When I paint, I do not feel that I paint the painting; I feel that the painting paints through me.
“Infinite” Acrylic on Canvas, 48″ x 36″ by Artist Kelly Corbett
I paint for the sheer joy of it. I love to combine paint and pastels, charcoal, ink, and pencil into most of my paintings. For “Early Summer Riot,” I was dreaming of July while immersed in a snowy Massachusetts January.
“Wyoming Girl” Oil on Linen, 24″ x 20″ by Artist Stephanie Berry
My approach to creating is both experimental and intuitive and based on personal life experiences. I feel that each of us is a vessel and carries thoughts, feelings, joys, sorrows and dreams. We are the container.
“Fall River” Acrylic, 18″ x 24″ by Artist Connie Velin
I like texture, color and combining unorthodox elements into a cohesive composition. Working in an abstract style helps me complete an inner connection with viewers in that private space that assumes priority over words.
“Mixed Lilies” Watercolor, 21″ x 21″ by Artist Tanis Bula
I strive for essence, reacting to how an event or object makes me feel, rather than attempting to show how it merely “looks.” Always, the process leads me, not the other way around.
“Pink Sky at Night” Acrylic, 16″ x 20″ by Artist Kelley Batson Howard
My creative process evolves intuitively from what I can only describe as a blissful “altered state.” Blending my chosen colors directly on the canvas leads the way and adding my signature whimsical dots completes each journey.
“Last Light on the Marsh” Acrylic on Canvas, 34″ x 24″ by Artist Robert Hinkelman
The play of light and shadow always intrigues me. I enjoy bringing the beauty of nature and fascinating faces to the attention of the viewer.
“Abundant Wildflowers” Acrylic with Modeling Paste, 61cm x 61cm by Artist Lisa Frances Judd
I enjoy evoking questions in the viewer’s mind by using color and composition in an unusual way. This image is from a collection of abstractions formed by details in manmade objects which I found not only colorful but thought provoking.
“The Moments that Matter” Colored Pencil on Claybord, 20″ x 8″ by Artist Tara M. Santoro
Photos, collage, laser prints—these create a pulse as grounds in my paintings, a continuous call-and-response. That click of significance—Richard Dreyfuss shaping mashed potatoes in Close Encounters, insisting, “This means something.”
“Late Autumn Afternoon – Bubble Rock at Jordon Park in Acaida National Park, Maine” Photography, Various Sizes by Artist J. Carlee Adams
My process is a dance with the painting—layers of free flowing colors are added repeatedly, then permeated with various chemicals. Using this method, I am able to achieve unique results.
“Becoming Clear” Oil and Cold Wax, 25″ x 25″ by Artist Jane Mishkind
A late-life sudden career change renewed my creative spirit. My imagination is enhanced by the randomness of fluid acrylic pour. Each image is unique with a subject created specifically for that pour.
“Furlough” Oil, 30″ x 40″ by Artist Karen Sako
I believe that inspiration is a “state of being.” My integrated art style serves up vignettes of life’s fleeting moments that would otherwise pass us by. I absolutely thrive on a roving aesthetic and its constant spark of re-invention.
“Beneath the Wings” Oil on Canvas, 24″ x 18″ by Artist Penny Scarboro
Photographs preserve memories and can be used as art. I love using photographs as a form of decoration and as a way to celebrate memories. It’s art that has meaning to those who see it.
“Leland Township Harbor” Watercolor by Artist Dan Finnell
Colours and experiences on travels worldwide motivate my oil paintings. Subjects include human portraiture and African animals. Using textured content, I help to create “an experience” for my painting purchasers to enjoy for years to come.
“Wisdom – Air” Watercolor on Mounted Paper, 30″ x 20″ by Artist Kelly Leahy Radding
I do acrylic on canvas painting mixed with digital effects. My art is driven by my own experience with OCD.
