About the Item
Artist Comments
Part of a series of work inspired by dance. The piece is a result of impressions derived from photographs taken by Wynston at a performing arts event. He used oil pigment sticks as a direct tactile connection on the canvas over an underpainting of acrylic paint.
About the Artist
Wynston Edun was born in Nigeria and emigrated to the United States in 1987 after receiving his degree in Fine Arts from the University of Benin. He constructs semi-abstract figures with spontaneous bursts of color and impulsive mark making, using both traditional and non-traditional techniques. Wynston’s inspiration derives from human behaviors and characteristics which he depicts by layering color and texture with palette knives, brushes, and natural sponges. Inspired by the narrative figurative style of traditional African art, Wynston’s influences include artists of the African modernist genre who combine traditional and contemporary aesthetics to convey emotion.

- Sugar Daddy, Original PaintingBy Darlene McElroyLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Darlene McElroy creates an intricate and fun mixed-media portrait with references from Mexican day of the dead motifs and renaissance art. "He was a smooth guy, very debonair, and quite the raconteur," says Darlene. "He dressed for every occasion, always stood out in a crowd, and was a heartbreaker."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.Words that describe this painting: man, male, figurative, masculine, masked, flower, butterflies, Day of the Dead, narrative, storytelling, portrait, people, mixed media, pattern, fun, expressionism, texture, expressionism, people, mixed media artwork, black

- Respite, Original PaintingBy Sharon SiebenLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
A face surfaces within the abstract expression of artist Sharon Sieben's striking contemporary portrait. Cold wax mixed with oil constitutes a compelling image of her model in a meditative state. Sharon reminds us that sometimes, especially after a busy day, a quiet moment is most welcomed. "The subject in this portrait would agree," says Sharon.About the Artist
Sharon Sieben prefers working in a loose, fluid technique and finds inspiration in the most unexpected things. Her parents bought her a set of oil paints when she was ten years old and it sparked her love of art. She especially admires the work of Impressionist artists such as Paul Cezanne because of how they broke tradition. When she's not making art, she enjoys reading and playing classical guitar...Category21st Century and Contemporary Abstract Expressionist Mixed Media
