Abstract

Kathryn Arnold - CA
Kathryn Arnold is an artist working primarily with painting. Applying abstraction, Arnold formalizes the coincidental and emphasizes conscious process of composition. Colors in Arnold's paintings are variously jewel-like or subtly muted. The paint's texture varies, drawing the viewer in. In Kathryn's own words, "I allow for intense optical mixing as layers build upon each other with translucent effects integrating both on canvas and in the eye. I build up surfaces with marks. As I work, I notice a sense of personality and emotive nature developing and pursue it. Poetic gestures reveal the diaphanous character of thoughts and associations (processes of mind) in substantial and solid form." Located in San Francisco. Website: https://artistkathrynarnold.com/

Keith Ferris / Studio 13 - CA
I've maintained a studio for forty years. Recently, collaborating with Lia Smith on an book project about MUNI of San Francisco. The book is made up of my drawings, made over several years, of riders that have interested me either by their fashion statement or relationship to other passengers, or both, and drawings of the operators who have volunteered their time to have their portaits drawn for this project. If you are interested in viewing and possibly purchasing work, please contact me for a studio visit at keith639@sbcglobal.net, I'm located in San Francisco. Website: https://www.keithstudio13.space/

Shelly Leitheiser - GA
I'm a life-long artist and for me, art is about conveying a mood and my ideas. I like to create art that others can relate to, or that makes people keep looking, which is why abstract art is so appealing to do. Abstract art and impressionist landscapes are where my art has evolved to from more representational art. I feel that these types of art are the most fun and rewarding for people to look at because everyone sees something different. The main ideas I try to convey in my art have to do with the environment, and how humanity and nature can become more connected. Art is available directly from my website, https://fineartsouth.net/, 470-304-5559.

Wilbur M. Reeling - MD
My Abstract art is an alternative way for me to express my visual language of form, color and line to create a composition that places greater emphasis on a visual sensation than on a depiction of recognizable, realistic objects. Most of my paintings are done using pigmented paints that I hand grind and mix with special mediums to form my own unique color palette. Abstraction itself has been my subject matter for decades. Not an easily understood expression of painting, the observers must be able to comprehend and struggle for meaning in what is said, what is implied, and what is never completely described. Artworks available directly from the Artist, 443-252-5985. Website of Wilbur M. Reeling

Katie Willes - UT
I've always been touched by beauty. The sunset over the desert, or an orchard in full bloom can stop my breath. I try to infuse that joy of color into each painting. As an abstract expressionist artist, I paint intuitively. I try to bring balance and flow into each piece. I like to think my cheerful optimism shows through. When I can't help but smile when I look at each painting, I know I'm done. Artworks available directly from the Artist, 801-949-3629. Website of Katie Willes

Rebecca Bangs - CA
"I grew up in the back hills of East Tennessee fishing, climbing trees, running barefoot through corn fields and chasing after baby bunnies. It is this deep connection with nature that brings me back time and time again to create paintings inspired by our natural world. Each painting is an exercise in mindfulness as I apply 7-8 layers of dots for their creation. Collected nationally and internationally, many remark on how joyful they make the viewer feel." Located in the San Francisco Bay area. Website: https://www.rebeccaebangs.com/

Anne Furnaris - MI
Anne is the originator and promoter of the Metaphysical-Hermetic Christogrammic Art. She brings the Arcane Gnosis of the Mystery Schools into the spheres of the visual arts. This artistic manifestation is connected to the esoteric sciences, while its symbolic content is the outcome of many years of Space-Time experimentation of the Scientific Remote Viewing and activation of the dormant mental telepathy. The Hermetic Christogrammic Art has the scientific, spiritual, and artistic purpose to evolve the human consciousness and connect it to the Cosmic Consciousness of the Eternal Creation.

Landscapes / Nature

Philip J. Carroll - NJ
I do not choose the subjects that I paint they choose me I just happen upon them in my endless wandering for inspiration and they appear when I least expect them. Although I have painted landscapes in oils of city scenes and stop lights in an urban setting. I find I am drawn in later life back to my roots that of landscape and as I have always done still life. My most recent forays have been to Maine and Nova Scotia places I have always wanted to paint and now have the luxury of doing so. I am drawn to the scenery as many artists have been in the past and will be in future. Located in New Jersey, website: https://www.philipcarroll.com/

Kevin Kuenster - NY
Recently, I began working with Buon Fresco, an ancient technique in which pigments are applied to a wet plaster surface. The plaster is a pure combination of aged lime putty and Carrara marble dust which is applied to a birch wood panel. When the plaster dries the surface becomes hard and smooth like stone with the pigment embedded in the surface. Etruscan and Roman frescos with their rich colors have endured centuries. I am fascinated with depicting 21st century humanity, increasingly fragile and threatened, using this ancient technique that embodies such permanence and stability.

Kelly Mellos Fine Art - CA
Kelly's artistic viewpoint is one depicting a reverence for life... a deep awe of the beauty within a human being and in nature. She hopes that by capturing the life force of her subjects and showing this to viewers, that this respect will be shared. A commitment to artistic excellence, grounded in the representational art traditions of the 19th century European ateliers, is the foundation of Kelly's work. Her portrait, figurative and landscape work has been shown in national galleries and museums, as well as international exhibitions.

I've been sharing my work with a community of thousands of Art loving souls from around the globe through various galleries, art exhibits, art pop-up shows and self-representation.

Gary L. Wilks - MO
Wilks' paintings capture the dynamism of the human figure and the power of expression. Through his unique style, Wilks employs modern techniques such as unmodulated layers of paint, splashes of color and strong surface texture to innovate the traditional genre of portraiture. Whether an iconic figure from pop culture or an everyday individual, his use of lighting, positioning and suggestively sketched or contrasting colored backgrounds visually elevate the subject allowing them to be the focus.

Laurie Goodhart - NY
The diverse experiences of 40 years as a professional artist with a penchant for the details of lost cultures have fused with a simultaneous 30 years farming, also full time, and produced an extensive oeuvre I call The Remnants And Residents Of A Lost Sanctuary of Aphrodite. While its visual vocabulary owes much to ancient artifacts, the motives underlying each painting are both current and timeless: our need for sustenance and grace, and visions of women on their own terms.
