Ronda Waiksnis
Weather over Spear River, Abstract Oil Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Ronda Waiksnis demonstrates a moody and evocative abstract view. Combinations of grays, earthy greens, and midnight blue shape a river winding through the grassy terrain. Ronda provides minimal representation but expresses the image through perceptive colors. Her rich and layered paintwork allows the viewer their interpretation.


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.

  • Blue Chip Coffee, Abstract Oil Painting
    By Rachel Srinivasan
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Part of artist Rachel Srinivasan's signature cubist coffee series. For these pieces, she studies her extensive collection of cafetieres that she keeps in her studio. The works are both about celebrating her love of coffee, and depicting light, pattern, and repetition as though it were set to music.


    About the Artist
    For Rachel Srinivasan, an idea is worth putting on a canvas only if it still feels exciting after a few days. Rachel enjoys mulling the idea over in her mind for some time before creating an artwork. She hopes viewers will engage with her work and wonder about the subject matter, shapes and colors. "My current work is all about creating a connection between the person on the canvas with the viewer," she explains. She prefers large paintings and sometimes even makes her own canvases. She currently lives in Arizona and enjoys baking rhubarb pies, reading, running and going to art museums.
