About the Item

Artist Comments
Bold contrasts of red, black, and pale gray form a striking geometric composition that balances structure with spontaneity. At its center, a silver-leaf square anchors the piece, while surrounding shapes appear to shift and dance, infusing the work with movement and energy. This visual interplay evokes a sense of order amid unpredictability, inviting the viewer to reflect on stability in a changing world.


About the Artist
Abstract painter Leslie Ann Butler has been passionate about making art since she was a child. “In grade school I did a portrait of Robert Frost and sent it to him, and received a nice letter of thanks,” Leslie Ann recalls. Though she still enjoys creating figurative work, Leslie Ann is also intrigued by abstraction. She describes creating abstract work as entering an altered state of consciousness. Often the compositions will come to her during meditation, and she does her best to reproduce the vision in the studio. Leslie Ann works from the top floor of her Portland home, where she gets lots of natural light and a view of the city.
