Artist Comments
Artist Darlene McElroy creates a mixed-media nighttime depiction of birds in flight. Patterned golden sheets make up their soaring wings, standing out from the evening sky. "Life is a dance, whether it is our career, love life, or just living each day," says Darlene. The composition exemplifies not knowing the next step but feeling the rhythm like music.
About the Artist
Darlene McElroy sees creating art as similar to reading Turkish coffee grounds. A story becomes revealed as one looks at the surface, texture and color. Her works use a variety of materials ranging from acrylic paints to photo transfers and collage. She currently lives in New Mexico and has been greatly influenced by the work of Robert Rauschenberg. She encourages viewers to search for their narrative interpretation when viewing a work.

Artist Libby Ramage is on a perpetual hunt for interesting wine labels to use for her art. "These two deeply colored Cabernet labels with the white secondary labels suggested to me passion in the quest for peace," shares Libby. "Is the dove out of their reach or just released? The eternal search for a peaceful existence is very much present in my own life as well as globally. Personally, I am working to keep myself healthy and the anxiety of our times at bay. Wine and art definitely help."
About the Artist
Libby Ramage infuses a playful and whimsical mood into her works. In fact, she credits the children she works with for greatly influencing her aesthetic. She often uses children’s abandoned work in her collages. Libby currently lives in New Jersey and finds inspiration in the work of Rauschenberg. She believes collectors should buy from the heart.

"The model is bathed in a golden light combined with a warm, slightly darker background," says artist Patrick Soper. "The patterned and neutral textured background which serves to draw attention is to set off the exotic quality of this figurative piece."
