About the Item
"Que Sera, Sera," by Lorraine Lawson, is a stunning 48" x 48" mixed media abstract expressionist work that encapsulates the natural world's transformation and the passage of time. With a palette of deep blues, contrasting yellows, and textured whites, the piece reflects the artist's appreciation for Wabisabi—the beauty in imperfection. Lawson's signature use of paint and encaustic mediums creates a rich, textural surface that invites viewers to explore the depths of memory and place. This contemporary piece is a striking addition to any collection, offering a window into the artist's exploration of life's impermanence and beauty.
Lorraine Lawson's artistry lies at the intersection of the representational and the abstract, influenced by the transformative power of nature, culture, and architecture. Her work is an artistic tribute to the beauty of imperfection and the passage of time, drawing on the Japanese concept of Wabisabi to honor the beauty in the worn and broken. Lawson's abstract, textural paintings are rich with layers that evoke memories and a sense of place, achieved through innovative techniques with paint and encaustic mediums. Her practice involves a continual evolution of visual symbols and an exploration of techniques, all aimed at capturing the lyrical expressions of life's experiences. Her dedication to her craft is fueled by years of keen observation and a passion for expressing the profound narrative of life through her unique visual language.

Lorraine Lawson, born in 1952 in Liège, Belgium, is a distinguished contemporary artist whose work embodies a unique fusion of abstract expressionism and organic elements. Her artistry is deeply rooted in her heritage, as she is the great-granddaughter of the renowned Belgian artist Gustave Flasschoen (1868-1940), whose influence is evident in her creative journey. Lawson's upbringing was immersed in the world of art, surrounded by the works of her great-grandfather, which instilled in her a profound appreciation for artistic expression. This early exposure to art laid the foundation for her distinctive style, characterized by bold textures, vibrant colors, and a harmonious blend of abstraction and natural forms. Her education in art led her to explore various mediums and techniques, culminating in a style that is both dynamic and introspective. Lawson's paintings are not just visual experiences but also tactile, as she often incorporates mixed media elements to add depth and dimension to her work. Throughout her career, Lawson has received notable recognition for her contributions to the art world. Her works are part of permanent collections at prestigious institutions such as the Triton Museum of Art in Santa Clara, CA, and the Brentwood Public Library in Brentwood, CA. In 2016, she had a solo exhibit at the Triton Museum, showcasing her ability to capture the essence of nature and emotion on canvas. Lawson's art has also been featured in group exhibits, including the Oceanside Museum of Art in Oceanside, CA, in 2018 and 2019. These exhibitions have further solidified her reputation as an artist who can transcend traditional boundaries and connect with audiences on a profound level. Lorraine Lawson's art is a testament to her deep connection with her heritage and her continuous exploration of the natural world. Her paintings invite viewers to embark on a journey of discovery, where each brushstroke reveals a story of beauty, resilience, and the enduring power of artistic expression.

- "Subliminal" Colorful Mixed Media Contemporary Abstract by Steven H. RehfeldBy Steven H. RehfeldLocated in Carmel, CAThis 20" x 30" contemporary abstract mixed media piece by Steven Rehfeld is a captivating exploration of form, color, and texture. The composition features a harmonious blend of soft pastel hues — calming blues, delicate pinks, and mellow yellows — juxtaposed against more assertive tones of deep magenta, vibrant orange, and charcoal gray. The painting showcases Rehfeld's signature style of blending geometric shapes, notably triangles and circles, with freer, more organic brushstrokes. The added depth is achieved through the inclusion of mixed media elements: fragments of paper with faint sketches, scribbles, and translucent overlays create a multidimensional visual experience. The smoky, sinuous black mark towards the center adds a hint of dynamism, while the layered application of paint and paper produces a tactile richness, making the piece an engaging visual journey. Steven is now one of the top emerging artists in the U.S. His works are groundbreaking, bold, and imbued with unflinching disregard for painting conventions. Many works are in collections and museums in the U.S. Steven is also part of the 'Outsiders' school of art, originating in France in the 19th century. Also known as the Naïve movement, and was comprised of people with no art training at all, who suddenly started to paint. Many of them are from very challenging backgrounds. All they had was talent that had never before been tapped. In no time this movement became a significant art phenomenon and spread all over the world. His work, however, has branched out past the movement and his use of earth elements renders a basic and raw interpretation of his message. Original, 1-of-1. Shown at the American Art Gallery, Carmel-By-The-Sea, California.
