About the Item
This textured abstract painting by Teodora Guererra features a warm orange and red palette with subtle white accents. The artist applies paint in thick layers and wide, energetic strokes layered across the canvas. The painting is signed on the back of the canvas by the artist, and the textured painting continues around the sides of the canvas. It is wired and ready to hang.
Teodora Guererra’s abstract artistic vision has evolved throughout her years spent painting and teaching in Fairfield County, Connecticut, Tucson, Arizona, and upstate New York. Arizona’s naturally radiant landscape and arid climate led her to experiment with rich under-painting and vivid colors, while the shifting seasons of the East Coast inspired her to pursue dripping and textural techniques. Guererra's primary focus has always been pushing the limits through experimentation with new materials. She is influenced by Pat Steir, John McCracken, Helen Frankenthaler, and Brian Rutenberg, to name a few.
Guererra received her undergraduate and graduate degrees in art from Southern Connecticut University, The College of Saint Rose, and Skidmore College. Her paintings can be found in public and private collections across the U.S., including the Allmen Health and Wellness Center for Women in New York, SUNY Brockport, and William & Sonoma in San Francisco.
“I’m a big risk taker, experimenting with different materials so my work can be a series of continuous failures until I figure things out," Guererra says. "I’ve explored different directions in my work over the years, but I think you can see the work of my hands or one signature throughout.
"Some of my work achieves a sense of fluid movement with saturated color, while my newer collection is so textured, it is like frosting. I may start out with a plan, but the painting may ultimately decide the direction it will go. My most successful work should be complex yet minimal, and look like it was easy, or just happened.”

Teodora Guererra
Teodora Guererra’s abstract artistic vision has evolved throughout her years spent painting and teaching in Fairfield County, Connecticut; Tucson, Arizona, and upstate New York. Arizona’s naturally radiant landscape and arid climate led her to experiment with rich under-painting and vivid color; while the shifting seasons of the East Coast inspired Guererra to pursue dripping and staining techniques. Her focus has always been pushing the limits in her paintings through experimentation with new materials.
“As an artist, painting can be tormenting and sublime at the same time," Guererra says of her work. "I'm a big risk taker, experimenting with different materials to layer, stain and saturate color on large canvases. My most successful work achieves a sense of fluid movement with saturated color, that is complex yet minimalistic. The end result should be a painting that dances across the canvas and quiets all the noise.”
Guererra received her undergraduate and graduate art degrees from Southern Connecticut University, the College of Saint Rose and Skidmore College. Her paintings can be found in public and private collections across the U.S., including the Allmen Health and Wellness Center for Women in New York and SUNY Brockport, NY, Williams-Sonoma, San Francisco, CA. Her influences are Pat Steir, John McCracken, Helen Frankenthaler, Donald Judd, Bernar Venet, Agnes Martin and Brian Rutenberg.
