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.

Sheila Grabarsky
Sheila Grabarsky is known for her bold, gestural nature scenes. Her fluid paintings have been compared to those of Wassily Kandinsky, the Russian painter and art theorist referred to as the father of abstraction. And, like Kandinsky, the essence of inner beauty and the potency of the human spirit are key factors in her art. Grabarsky's art carries an air of spontaneity, however, the work develops in many layers and takes a long time to come together. "I search for evolving forms within the composition, look for 'eye flow' and use my color intuition," she explains. "This is the mystery I love about abstraction - always evolving and birthing itself." Grabarsky draws energy and inspiration from living near water and says she rarely travels because she doesn't like to be away from painting. In her studio, she is usually accompanied by three animal friends and an eclectic playlist of Janis Joplin, blues, reggae and classical. In 2016, Grabarsky's art was featured in the movie American Pastoral, starring Ewan McGregor and Dakota Fanning.

I watched as this painting revealed itself, color layer by color layer. My process is of reduction; subtracting as canvas gets full of expression until a cohesive composition evolves.

Artist Sheila Grabarsky demonstrates an abstraction of interlacing colors with hints of green, blue, and white peeping from the predominantly maroon, black, and mustard yellow background.
