Mary Lou Siefker Still-life Paintings
Mary Lou Siefker is a Broward County artist who has been exhibiting her work since 1977. She has won numerous awards and fellowships.
“Siefker's canvases often break the barrier between abstract and representational art by alluding to both without being either," says Jorge H. Santis, Curator of Collections at Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art. "This inferred dichotomy is never contrived, instead, it is blessed with uncommon equilibrium. Each image captures the transcendental moment when essence becomes substance — flux reigns. Siefker's ethereal figures, devoid of recognizable features, possess a universal quality to them. They emote with their bodies in a subtle but poignant way. Turns of a head, a hunched back, an unexpected void between forms are all crucial to the artist’s discourse. Siefker’s handling of the elements of art is authoritative."

“A white flower's petals intermingle in a field of deep purple and look like dancers expressing their joy and energy,†says artist Ruth-Anne Siegel. She creates vibrant floral portraits in her signature expressive style and brush strokes full of emotion. Playful colors and lighting are aptly translated into her work. "This painting pairs well with The Ghost Lingers 8."
