ABOUT THE ARTIST:
"Over the years my focus has transitioned more and more toward the fleeting beauty that surrounds us daily. My primary goal through the interpretation in paint of my observations of nature is to allow the viewer a moment of respite in the bustle of our days: to celebrate the brilliance of color, get lost in the airiness of the sky, or bask in the quietude of our open spaces.” -Alyson Kinkade
Kinkade earned a BFA from Kansas City Art Institute in 1999. In 2002 Southwest Art Magazine listed Alyson as one of the "top 21 artists under 31". In Sept 2005 SWart published her first feature editorial, and 2010 brought editorial on her abstract landscapes from American Art Collector Magazine.

Alyson Kinkade
Since graduating from the Kansas City Art Institute in 1999, Alyson Kinkade’s artwork has been widely collected and exhibited throughout the U.S. Her work is displayed publicly in the permanent collections of the cities of Little Rock, AR; Downey, CA; Paramount, CA; Loveland, CO; Platte River Power Authority and Colorado State University. Editorial highlights include features in Southwest Art and American Art Collector magazines. Alyson continues to create new works as a means to uplift, inspire, and connect from her Loveland, Colorado studio. "Over the years my focus has transitioned more and more toward the fleeting beauty that surrounds us daily. My primary goal through the interpretation in paint of my observations of nature is to allow the viewer a moment of respite in the bustle of our days: to celebrate the brilliance of color, get lost in the airiness of the sky, or bask in the quietude of our open spaces." -Alyson Kinkade In addition to abstract landscapes, Kinkade has added custom pet portraiture to the mix. Her series' Happiness Is and Nine Lives began in 2015 and has been widely successful, producing over 100 portraits in the first 2 years. Through her Happiness Is series, Kinkade has helped raise funds for Shelters and Wildlife Rescues, one small way of helping animals find their people. If you have a favorite breed, prints are available of several past portraits. I was accepted into every school I applied including the Chicago Art Institute, Minneapolis College of Art and Design and the School of Visual Arts in New York, but I chose the Kansas City Art Institute because it was a small (600 students) undergraduate school with a large campus and the largest scholarship. The allowance to focus solely on art and related subjects was immeasurable and the professors became more than just that. My junior painting professor, Michael Walling encouraged me to try landscape painting, and my senior painting
professor, Ron Slowinski, pushed me to make my colors really speak to the viewer. On breaks from school I would paint with the Schmid group. It's fun to work with artists like Jim Biggers, Cathy Goodale, Lu Haskew, Teresa Vito. I remember they were always down-to-earth and told things exactly how it was. I've always been fortunate to have great mentors to gain wisdom from. Following College I went to the Vermont Studio Center, a 2 month studio space in a gorgeous part of the nation. This was transition period for me into becoming a professional artist. I have since worked at the gallery and painted in my home studio in Loveland, Colorado. Exhibiting in galleries throughout the US and juried shows like the Governor's Art Show where I received "Best in Show" in 2016 with a collaborative work with Jane DeDecker. Our "In the Wings" monument of ballerinas has been placed in the permanent collection of the city of Little Rock, and the garden sized version in Downey, California.

- 'Sahdguru' - Contemporary Geometric Abstraction Pixelation - BoschBy Robert HightowerLocated in Atlanta, GA'Sahdguru' is an abstract pointillist painting featuring hues of yellow, blue, red, white and black. Robert Hightower is inspired by the work of Giotto, Hieronymus Bosch, Jean-François Millet, Roger Brown, Howard Arkley and Julian Opie. This piece is a part of a special immersive gallery installation, “The Apocalypse Simulacra,” which is a narrative presentation of the twilight of humanity, at the fulcrum of extinction by Atlanta-based artist Robert Hightower. Through stage-set constructions, readymade plastic models and paintings, Hightower investigates the duality of right/wrong, good/bad, eternal/ephemeral in light of the imminent end of the Human Epoch. It depicts the ideological origins of corporate greed and power, the reality of wealth distribution in the “American Dream,” and the socio-economic and environmental impacts of that collective greed. After receiving a BFA in sculpture from the University of Georgia, Hightower moved to New York City and participated in The Bronx Museum of the Art’s AIM Fellowship (Artist In the Marketplace). While in New York, his interests expanded to include art installation and the creation of spaces, and has since designed and built many unique homes, penthouses and restaurants throughout the United States. Hightower has returned home to Atlanta and will be presenting his most comprehensive body of work to date, “The Apocalypse Simulacra,” a unique universe of beauty, dichotomy and uncertainty. ARTIST STATEMENT The 'Apocalypse Simulacra' is a presentation of the twilight of humanity, at the fulcrum of extinction. The climate is the subject. The Simulacra is the Theme. First discussed by Plato, the Simulacra is the search for Truth in Duality. Developing into Post-Modernism with Nietzsche’s: truth=Truth. Now with Bauvillard, the Simulacra has evolved beyond Post-Modernism, into the wholesale confusion of the real/fake, the true/false… between reality and hyper-reality. This crumbling, confusing of the truth (not necessarily the Truth) is our Reality. For over two decades, I have created large format paintings of strip malls, suburban houses and toys. These paintings present singular images flattened-out (almost floating) on color-fields. They create a certain duality - a loving portrait of an inanimate object that would not normally be singled-out for affection. With my latest work, I have added a variety of iconic images: an airplane, a whisky bottle, a woman floating in a pool. The icons are presented in a pixelated or degenerated state. In addition to paintings, I have used adult-size building blocks to create sculptures or three-dimensional paintings. Using a child's toy at an adult-scale gives the building blocks an austere and powerful presence. The building blocks echo the blocks of the pixelated paintings...Category

- UNTITLED CONSTRUCT 1 - Abstract/Figurative Oil Painting in Yellow, Black & BlueBy Donald KeefeLocated in Signal Mountain, TNI have sketchbooks filled with small thumbnail drawings which I usually base compositional arrangements upon. These are non-representational: just lines, arcs, mass tones, etc – basically just playing with formal elements. I had an idea to recreate these doodles as small sculptures. I liked the results, and wanted to have it feed back into my painting work as an intermediate step. That idea grew and I began lighting the sculptures with colored lights...Category
