Gary Leonard
Blue Emerge, Abstract Oil Painting

2020

About the Item

Artist Comments
"This painting is a study of abstraction blended with a dominant nude to create a striking composition," says artist Gary Leonard. The blue background intuitively contrasts with the warmer tones of the skin. Gary shares, "I found inspiration in the interplay of the bold colors of the abstraction with the softness of the figure."


About the Artist
Through composition, color, texture and more, Gary Leonard celebrates beauty. His works start with the subject, but then he lets the work evolve into a more complex composition. Oftentimes, he enjoys merging figures with abstract images and varying textures. He hopes that his works will leave the viewer with a sense of warmth and peace. When he's not making art, he enjoys listening to music and learning how to play the piano.

About the Artist
Naoko Paluszak began her career by studying graphic design in Tokyo, followed by several years working as a designer, before switching to oil painting. Now located in the United States, Naoko continues to develop her style through different series of paintings that have varying degrees of abstraction. By bridging representational with non-representational forms, the artist seeks to stir personal memories and spark new narratives. “Art is about having a sense of mystery and drama,” she says. Naoko is also passionate about color. She mixes her paints based on the intuitive emotions that different colors can trigger within the viewer, and within herself.
