About the Item
"Sirens 1" Figurative in Light Yellow, Pinks, Bright Colors, Drips and Lines
Jylian Gustlin is a native Californian and grew up in the San Francisco bay area. She has been shaped by the technology explosion of Silicon Valley and her art reflects her in-depth knowledge of that technology.
“I knew that if I finished, I would never make art” is how Jylian Gustlin explains leaving college one semester short of a degree in computer science and mathematics to attend the Academy of Art College, San Francisco. After completing her BFA, Jylian fused her understanding of computers and her passion for art to became a graphics programmer for Apple Computer, Inc. Now, Jylian uniquely combines the effects of modern technology with traditional techniques. While painting in acrylic and oil paints, her artwork often conveys the same complex layered effects possible in computer programs such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Just as she challenged the creative limitations of the latest computer software, Gustlin experiments with a variety of materials to discover their effects. Working with two-part epoxy resin, oil and acrylic paints, charcoal, wax, gold leaf, pastel and graphite on board, Gustlin draws, paints, scratches on her surfaces.
Figures have always been an important part of Gustlin’s repertoire. Her characters are frequently set in an alien-like landscape, moody and brooding, yet at the same time, depicting a sense of future. Jylian has been influenced by a lifelong love of the Bay Area Figurative artists. For the last several years, Jylian has been working on a series of paintings, both abstract and representational, that are based on the Fibonacci mathematical theories. The Fibonacci mathematical theory is based on the numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, and so on. Fibonacci mathematical calculations create rectangles and shell spirals based on the incrementally increasing numbers. She is also exploring the relationship of Fibonacci numbers to the petals on flowers and how to use these ideas in paintings as well as the relationship of Fibonacci to musical scales and how the 5-tone scale, 8-tone scale, and 13-tone scale. She continues to explore science and mathematics and how it intersects with the arts.

Jylian Gustlin
Born and raised in California, contemporary painter Jylian Gustlin makes art that is heavily inspired by our technology-driven world. Gustlin's firsthand experiences with the rise of Silicon Valley loom large in her abstract paintings and figurative paintings.
Gustlin grew up in San Francisco and attended San Jose State University in the early 1980s, where she studied computer science and mathematics. She left the university just one semester short of finishing her course requirements, opting instead to make art. Gustlin enrolled at the Academy of Art University and graduated with a BFA in 1986. She subsequently embarked on a career as a graphics programmer at Apple Inc.
Gustlin started to show her art in the 1990s, with her first exhibit, "Small Works," held at the Pope Gallery in Santa Cruz in 1994. She continued exhibiting throughout California into the mid-2000s, and later in New York City and the rest of the country.
Gustlin draws on the legendary decades-long Bay Area Figurative Movement and creates abstract and representational art that explores Fibonacci mathematical theories. She works with acrylic paints, epoxy resins, wax, charcoal, graphite and more to create provocative mixed-media paintings that feature complex, dazzling patterns and rich swathes of color.
Gustlin continues to live and work in California, painting out of a studio on her family's large compound. In 2022, she honored her family and their support of her work with an exhibition called "Terra Familia" at Gallery MAR in Park City, Utah. Many of the pieces represented a collaboration with her brothers and sisters.
