Martyn Brewster Art
British, b. 1952
Martyn Brewster’s abstract paintings are strongly linked to the English landscape tradition. His paintings and drawings explore the coastal light of the south coast of Dorset where he lives and works. In his recent work, Brewster often uses a softer palette and square forms which, although reminiscent of boats or islands, deserve to be viewed in less representational terms. Brewster has had retrospective exhibitions at the Russell– Cotes Art Gallery and Museum, 1997; the Royal West of England Academy, 2001; and the Study Gallery of Modern Art, Poole, 2003, amongst others. He has won numerous awards and has work in private, public and corporate collections worldwide. Public collections include the Victoria & Albert Museum, British Museum, Russell–Cotes Art Gallery and Museum, Arts Institute at Bournemouth and Bournemouth University.
“My primary concern has always been with painting. I have never ceased to be fascinated and enthralled by the tactile and evocative qualities of paint, oil paint especially. Early on, I developed a particular interest in colour and abstraction which is the key to my work, coupled with a lyrical and poetic response to both Nature and the medium.
I have always loved the related activities of drawing and printmaking. The drawings represent a more direct response to nature, and all are done outside, in front of the motif. It is a challenge to deal with light and shade, space and atmosphere, and to find new compositions amongst such an endless multitude of forms. The prints are the opposite and allow for a complete absorption in colour and abstraction free from any directly associated references. Drawing influences printmaking, which affects painting and so on, each practice constantly enriching and extending the other, and inspiring new work.”to

Abacus
By Lisa Weiss
Located in Tulsa, OK
Navigation by artist Lisa Weiss is a contemporary abstract blue, white, grey, and yellow mixed media on panel that measures 30 x 20 and is priced at $1,500.
Lisa Weiss’ work is about mark making, patterning, spontaneous movement, momentary awareness and paring down to essentials. She is continually looking for ways to detach from the past and future with a focus on the here and now. Weiss’ paintings are process driven by movement, repetition, materials, and place. Her works are for beauty and contemplation.
A professional artist from Tennessee, Lisa Weiss received her BFA
in painting and sculpture from Middle Tennessee State University
in 1990. She received a teaching assistantship to Louisiana State
University in Painting and Drawing and completed her MFA in 1996.
Lisa has exhibited her work nationally in solo and group shows for the past
fifteen years. She is included in numerous public and private collections
throughout America, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and Holland.
She has the honor of being in the Hunter Museum permanent collection.
In the last seven years, Lisa has attended four artist residencies:
Dorland Colony in California, Millay Colony in New York,
Wurlitzer Foundation in New Mexico and the Nantucket School of Art
on Nantucket Island.
She has taught design, painting and drawing at the University of
Southern Mississippi, Watkins College of Art and Film, Eastern New Mexico
University and Winthrop University.
Lisa has recently earned initial certification for teaching yoga from
Yandara Yoga Institute in Todos Santos, Mexico. She has traveled
the United States, Mexico and Europe. Lisa currently creates artwork
in her studio in Franklin, Tennessee.
