Synesthesia: Throughout her lifetime Haas had a condition known as synesthesia. Synesthesia, as defined by Wikipedia, is a perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway. Many famous artists, poets, musicians and authors throughout history have had synesthesia including Vincent Van Gough, Duke Ellington, Billy Joel, and Vladimir Nabokov. Haas' form of synesthesia is known as 'projective synesthesia'. With projective synesthesia Haas saw colors, shapes and/or forms when experiencing audio stimulation. Haas used...

Blue & Grey Green Plan: Abstract Geometric Framed Painting in Cool Toned Palette
By Donise English
Located in Hudson, NY
Abstract geometric painting with a cool toned palette of green, blue, and grey with accents of black and white against a sea foam green colored acrylic wash background
"Blue and Grey Green Plan" made by Hudson Valley artists, Donise English, in 2022
Graphite, colored pencil, and acrylic painting on vellum
24 x 18 inches unframed, 31 x 25 x 1.5 with an 8-ply white mat, non-glare plexi, and simple black moulding
Signed, verso
Excellent condition and ready to hang
This abstract geometric painting on vellum was made by Hudson Valley based artist, Donise English, in 2022. The composition begins with a blue green toned background of acrylic wash. A grid of box-like patterns in sky blue, green, grey, and black with white line work are stacked to create an irregular shape or an "imagined city grid", says the artist. The painting on vellum is complemented by a simple black frame with an 8-ply white mat, non-glare plexi, and wire backing. It's in excellent condition and ready to hang.
About the artist:
Donise English emphasizes lines, grids, and fields of subtle color to evoke imagined places and invented structures. While precise lines and straight angles are often associated with themes in architecture and urban planning designs, English conveys a geometric motif guided by intuition rather than a ruler. Variations on grids retain flaws and unmistakable traces of the artists’ hand; her style of draftsmanship shies away from intellectualism and instead makes her compositions feel very personal. A central checkerboard formation floats over a ground of pastel color or washes of grey or cream. Each design is intensely intricate, incorporating gouache, acrylic, pen, graphite, ink and colored pencil. The artist recently retired from her decades career teaching at Marist College and is now devoted full time to her art making.
Artist Statement:
My work is about the way visual diagrams present information that describes how something is made or the way it is. I am interested in drawing and collaging multiple layers of information that refer abstractly to maps, architectural drawings and blueprints or patterns and structures found in such things as roller coasters, power lines and fences. I use gouache and collaged paper in a series of layers that are a visual and ideological response to the previous layer to define my pictorial space. For each piece I create a set of rules to follow about the use of a limited palette, a grid format, opacity of paper and whether a piece may include curving lines or maintain a rectilinear structure.

Scarlatti Sonata in B Minor
By Hildegarde Haas
Located in Myrtle Beach, SC
A unique and wonderfully expressive visual interpretation of Scarletti’s sonata juxaposing the harmonious interplay of color with a complexity of layered geometric shapes.
Gouache, c. 1950. Signed and titled in ink. A fine mid-century modernist abstraction, with fresh, undiminished colors, on heavy illustration bristol; the full sheet with 3 inch margins all around, in excellent condition. Archival matting to museum standards.
Image size 12 x 16 inches (305 x 406 mm); sheet size 18 x 22 inches (457 x 559 mm).
Baroque-age composer Domenico Scarletti (1685-1757) was himself a gifted and renowned harpsichordist. Born in Naples, Italy the same year as Bach and Handel, he was a great admirer of Handel’s work. He served as the composer and organist for Naples' royal chapel beginning in 1701; He was Maestro Di Cappella at St. Peter's in the Vatican from 1715 to 1719 and in 1719 he travelled to London to direct his opera 'Narciso' at the King's Theatre. In 1719 he went to Lisbon to teach music to the Portuguese princess Maria Magdalena Barbara. He lived briefly in Rome and Seville and in 1733 went to Madrid as music master to Princess Maria Barbara, who had married into the Spanish royal house. The Princess later became Queen of Spain. Scarlatti remained in the country for the remaining twenty-five years of his life, and had five children there. After the death of his first wife in 1742, he married a Spaniard, Anastasia Maxarti Ximenes. Among his compositions during his time in Madrid were a number of the 555 keyboard sonatas for which he is best known. The many sonatas which were unpublished during Scarlatti's lifetime have appeared in print irregularly in the two and a half centuries since. Scarlatti’s compositions have attracted renowned admirers and interpreters worldwide, including Béla Bartók, Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, Johannes Brahms, Frédéric Chopin, Emil Gilels, Enrique Granados, Marc-André Hamelin, Vladimir Horowitz, Franz Liszt, Ivo Pogorelić, Heinrich Schenker and Dmitri Shostakovich.
Born in Frankfort, Germany, Hildegarde Haas moved to the US with her parents in 1937. Her education included summer classes at the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center followed by two years at the University of Chicago. Receiving a scholarship to the Art Students League, she studied under Vaclav Vytlacil and Morris Kantor. She was a self-taught woodcut printmaker and became a member of The Printmakers, an established group of New York graphic artists.
Her woodcuts which lean toward rhythmic and calligraphic abstraction were included in the exhibition 'Young American Printmakers' at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1953. She exhibited nationally at juried exhibitions and her work frequently drew favorable comments by critics reviewing these shows. The physical demands of carving her own blocks and hand printing each impression became too great and after seven years she exchanged printmaking for painting.
Haas moved to Northern California in 1951 and became affiliated with the San Francisco and Oakland Art Associations and the Arts and Crafts Coop in Berkeley. Haas continued to exhibit in national and local painting and print exhibitions and she had solo exhibitions at the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts and the Kaiser Aluminum...
