Maria Bacha Paintings
Greek, b. 1972
Greek painter Maria Bacha paints colorful, nebulous, abstract compositions inspired by nature and light. Working in an organic, gestural style, she allows the materials to guide her as the paintings develop.
She employs a unique method of blending acrylic paint, pigments and resin to create a dynamic interplay between the layers. Transparent color fields pull the eye into the illusionary space and then seem to give way to ghostly, textured forms. Like celestial clouds or pools in the primordial soup, her compositions appear to always be in the process of becoming.
Bacha has exhibited extensively in Greece, as well as in Europe and in the United States, and her work is in multiple public and private collections. She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Studio Arts from the University of La Verne, California. She lives and works in Marousi, Athens.to

"Most of my works are supported by memories of the past and suggested realities. Issues of social politics, ancestral references, and astral projections are presented with fragmented elements of 'real life' collaged and collapsed, as dreams are prone to do. If connections are made, all the better. I feel that life should remind us of our dreams." - Richard J. Watson

Break My Heart Sweetly
By Robert Mars
Located in Napa, CA
Robert Mars’ graphic compositions and rich colors provide an ideal medium in which to explore his fascination with the Golden Age of American popular culture and the icons of the 1950’s and 60’s. Drawing inspiration from the near-mythical fame that surrounded celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn before the instant and all-encompassing presence of the internet, Mars’ daring approach creates paintings with a nostalgic yet innovative vintage quality.
Beginning by defining borders and background planes of color with sheets of brown paper, Mars then proceeds to layer paint and vintage paper ephemera...
