Artist Comments
Every flower that has burst through a crack in the concrete is my inspiration for this piece set in a gray palette. I wanted to created something beautiful against the unexpected. Using a palette knife I created the background then used a brush for most of the floral. The edges are painted to have the look of linen.
About the Artist
Faith Taylor began her career as a self-taught mural artist in Los Angeles during the late 1980s. She was commissioned to paint over 2,000 murals in homes and businesses across Southern California before switching to canvas 14 years ago. Currently, Faith’s guiding inspiration is the concept of a far-off horizon. She finds hope and comfort in looking to the distance, to the future. “Horizons inspire me,” the artist says. “I find depth comforting as it not only gives my eyes a place to wander, but my mind a place to go and relax or explore.” Faith creates depth in her oil paintings by applying multiple layers of oil paint and glazes, waiting for days in between to allow the paint to dry. Faith's methodical layering technique is reflected in the patient and thoughtful mood of her artwork. The muted, earthy palette she employs encourages the viewer to meditate on each painting, gazing deeply to the abstracted horizon line.

- Floral Abstract, Abstract PaintingBy Julia HackerLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Julia Hacker displays enticing abstraction of floral forms that blend the elements of fauvist landscapes and naturalistic plein-air scenes. The harmony between organic shapes and the vibrant hues of magenta, orange, and white adds mystery to the jungle setting. The interplay of light and dark tones gives depth and a sense of allure to the composition.About the Artist
Julia works from a studio in her home that overlooks a wooded ravine and finds inspiration in the natural order of the universe. Her art draws from many sources of imagery, but consistently possesses a magical and ethereal quality. Whether the image depicts stylized snowfall, glistening flora, or a collaged figure, the work exudes a fleeting element of beauty that transcends reality. Julia primarily creates using painting or illustrated collage. When she paints, she foregoes sketching beforehand, instead allows emotion and intuition to drive the composition. Her collages are influenced by illustration techniques acquired from her Master’s degree in fashion design. Julia likes being able to switch between the two artistic methods, often working simultaneously on multiple projects to keep her creative inspiration fresh and constantly evolving.Words that describe this painting: organic shapes, plants, nature, abstract expressionism, leaves, floral, acrylicpaint, jungle, abstract, flora, abstract, flora, acrylic painting, orange
