Ronda Waiksnis
Evening's Refuge, Abstract Oil Painting

2020

About the Item

Artist Comments
Abstract view of evening along the shore. Still blue water leads the eye back to the gentle glow of the sunset. "Certain shades of blue immediately take us to a place of Zen," says artist Ronda Waiksnis.


About the Artist
Ronda Waiksnis captures abstracted, atmospheric movement through her direct application painting process. Rarely using brushes, she applies heavy layers of paint with large palette knives and other tools, shifting the oil paint instinctively. Ronda is inspired by her natural surroundings and strives to capture the mood of any given day. The artist uses muted earth tones and receding horizon lines to demonstrate depth, conveying the transient sky or evanescent reflections in water with expressive feeling. Ronda aims to make art that is emotive and visceral, organic and unrefined. She is passionate about the endless possibilities for innovation that being an artist offers.
