Expressionism: practice in art of trying to depict the artist’s personal responses to objects and events.
Hold onto your hats! These three painters will take you on a journey through swirling masses of emotionally charged patterns and colors.
TOM: Tom’s paintings are magical. His scale ranges from the amazing beauty of a histological slide to the eruptive explosions in the universe. The precipices, jagged corners and ensnaring wires may make you want to look away, but you can’t stop staring. His work is mesmerizing. It is nature its core—dark, luminous and beautiful.
ANNE: With Anne’s paintings you feel comfortable and nurtured, but look closer, there is subtle discord nestled in her traditional painting technique. In "WHITE EDGE FALLS": she gently takes abstraction back to its roots of deconstruction, and then pushes you out of the safety net of the familiar.
GINA: Gina’s paintings abound with splashes of color, making you feel you could be swept away at any moment. In "TAKING OFF AND LANDING" there is an uncertainty whether the landing will happen. She will tell you her work is about nature—inner, outer, micro, macro…and it is. But just as nature is never static, neither are Gina’s paintings. They have power in their movement that will keep you captivated.
