About the Item

This piece is framed measuring 27.5 by 35 inches. Based in Carrollton, Georgia, Erin Dixon is a mixed media artist whose work bridges realism and surrealism. Her work is often heavily layered, preserved and obscured in acrylic, then re-interpreted as a unified composition in chalk pastels. Her practice involves documenting from direct observation her surroundings, collections of objects, people encountered, and sometimes fantastical imaginings. These drawings and paintings are the raw material of which much of this work is comprised. She also paints in oil, watercolor, and ink, and experiments in many other mediums. Erin received her Master of Fine Arts in Drawing and Painting from Georgia State University and her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Savannah College of Art and Design. Recent exhibitions include the Masur Museum of Art, Monroe, LA in 2023, Artfields, Lake City, SC in 2022, LaGrange Museum of Art, LaGrange, GA in 2022 (winning a People’s Choice Award,) Drawing Discourse at UNC-Asheville in 2021 and 2019 (winning an Award of Distinction in 2019,) and her work has been published in a number of catalogs and held in private collections. She is a Senior Lecturer of Drawing and Painting at the University of West Georgia in Carrollton, GA. She was born in Grand Bassa County, Liberia, and grew up in Middlebury, Connecticut and Penang, Malaysia. She has lived somewhere in Georgia most of her adult life and exhibits work throughout the Southeast.

'August Wildflowers III' - naturalist landscape, colorful, botanical, layered
By Carlyle Wolfe Lee
Located in Atlanta, GA
"August Wildflowers II" is a colorful naturalist landscape featuring hues of purple, pink, orange, blue and green. This work is framed in a simple white frame behind Museum Glass measuring 60 by 41 inches. Carlyle is inspired by the works of Claude Monet, Edouard Vuillard, Henri Matisse, Walter Inglis Anderson, Charles Burchfield, Ellsworth Kelly, Alexander Calder and Mary Delany. This piece is part of a collaborative series by Carlyle and her husband Thad Lee. This body of work was made in tandem, through painting and photography, that explores their mutual delight in the natural world and within their own marriage. Carlyle Wolfe’s paintings & works on paper are about an awareness of the natural world—becoming progressively, cyclically more present to its rhythms, gaining deeper understanding of its design, & acquiring direct experiential knowledge of its mysterious beauty. For the last 15 years, Wolfe has been making contour line drawings of plants form observation. From her drawings, she isolates silhouettes into paper stencils which she uses to create oil paintings & works on paper – or cut out of metal to make sculptures. Her work is cumulative in nature – gradually marking time & seasonal change, unity & variety, individual & collective beauty. Wolfe grew up in Canton, Mississippi, & earned a BFA in painting from the University of Mississippi & an MFA in painting & drawing from Louisiana State University. She has also studied in Cortona, Italy, & at the University of Georgia. Wolfe has exhibited work throughout the South, including Spalding Nix...

This is a national juried art competition that is on exhibit from September 2, 2023 – January 2, 2024. This contemporary art exhibit will be on display in the Ancient Sculpture Museum. The Earth’s diverse surface is fascinating. The vegetative environments invite viewers to visit a place. Local light and atmosphere affect the plant life that thrives, the colors we see and experience of mood and energy. These botanical paintings explore memory and landscape with complex spatial environments that hover between painterly realism and abstract passages. Throughout the long tradition of landscape painting, there exists a connection between the artist and the natural world. A painter can evoke this relationship through the use of color, value and line whether the painting is representational or abstracted. These elements combine and intertwine to create rhythms of perspective and dimension, illuminating this personal vision on canvas. Yupo paper is waterproof, and stands up to the rigors of the elements and demanding environments. Ultra-smooth and bright white, it's a paper alternative that stands out. Bio Julie...
