Sheila Grabarsky
Fantasy Garden 31, Abstract Painting

2024

About the Item

Artist Comments
Gestural and textured techniques infuse the painting with a delightful sense of organic garden forms. Intricate drawings and lines come to life as acrylics and dried acrylic skins are skillfully applied to the surface. The vibrant blend of orange and green hues adds energy, while touches of light pink create a compelling contrast.


About the Artist
Artist Sheila Grabarsky creates nature scenes through gestural abstracts driven by intuition and graceful, flowing movement. "I search for evolving forms within the composition, look for 'eye flow,' and use my color intuition," explains Sheila. "This is the mystery I love about abstraction. It is always evolving and birthing itself." Her fascination with color began in third grade and continues to inspire her, actively infusing her art with unity and contrast. Sheila's introspective journey explores spirituality, psychology, and soul-searching, allowing viewers to interpret her art freely. She employs a unique "drawing" technique, using acrylic skins lifted from her palette and adhered to her canvas. Her home studio, located in her loft, is often shared with her three animal companions and a diverse playlist featuring Janis Joplin, blues, reggae, and classical tunes. Sheila loves the beach and the sea, often taking short drives to soak in the ocean's beauty. In 2016, Sheila's art was featured in the movie American Pastoral, starring Ewan McGregor and Dakota Fanning.

  • Passage, Abstract Painting
    By Robert Hofherr
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Robert Hofherr presents an abstract rock formation in a majestic autumn forest. "Seasonal hues are augmented by the addition of purple, violet, and eggplant," states Robert. He pares down unnecessary detail to maintain the visual energy of the piece. By virtue of its size and impact, he creates a revolutionary statement work.


    About the Artist
    Robert Hofherr avoids depicting a landscape exactly as he sees it or as the viewer might expect. Instead, he enjoys reimagining landscapes and painting his pieces indoors at a fairly rapid pace. The works of French Fauve artists...
