Mark Lembo
Circle Toon

2020

About the Item

About the piece: Another of the Toon Series but in full sheet format. Simple and geometric in a primary color palette. Words that describe this piece:Geometric, abstract, circle, segment. primary, cartoon, panel Artist Biography: Mark A. Lembo Script M Abstract Art Mark’s dynamic work blurs the distinction between alcohol ink and watercolor - working with dyes, inks, liquid acrylic, liquid watercolor, and other aqueous media; lately, he has been incorporating metallic watercolor and pearlescent ink to his work. He has used canvas, synthetic Yupo™ paper, Yasutomo Mineral Paper, and various watercolor papers. Mark’s journey into the world of creative arts started with the question, “What would Jackson Pollock’s work look like if he had used transparent watercolors?” So, it was out with the pencils, pens, and brushes, and on to the pouring of various aqueous solutions. While mostly self-taught, Mark took a series of classes at the Creative Arts Group, Sierra Madre, CA, under Joe Stoddard, as well as seminars with Robert Burridge and Marciano Martinez. Along the way, Mark has been influenced by the work of two controlled pouring advocates: Bette Ridgeway and Ibrahim Bassmi. His work has both dynamic and passive qualities. While the colors may be aggressively administered, little attempt is made to control the flow or interactions – save the application of masking fluid. While the bulk of Mark’s work is abstract, he does some occasional representational works to ‘cleanse the palette.’

By Jenny Brown
Located in Boston, MA
Stardust Cephalopod, Original Contemporary Abstract Nautical Mixed Media Work, 2015 11" x 8.5" (HxW) Collage and Pen on Paper With clear inspiration from natural botanicals and oceanic life, artist Jenny Brown combines found imagery and her own mark making to create delicate yet bold designs. This work features a gray background that allows a colorful combination of paper ephemera melded together into a fantastical creature. Fine white lines emerge like tentacles, and small white dots scatter around the composition, bringing the work to life. Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed. Artist Commentary: Stardust Cephalopod is a bioluminescent flowering squid, existing both in the depths of the sea and the far reaches of the Milky Way Galaxy. She melds together the sciences of the oceans and the stars, linking the two natural spaces as one beautiful entity. Stardust Cephalopod is a mixed media work created with pen, ink, & collage. About the Artist: Jenny Brown is a visual artist living and working in Providence, Rhode Island, whose primary mediums are drawing, collage, and works on paper. Her work brings to life a mythical world of sea creatures and celestial beings, realized through her love of paper ephemera.

In addition to working with galleries in New York, Providence, and metro Boston, Jenny has collaborated with brands such as Hudson-Chatham Winery, Sheaffer Pens...
