Artist Lisa Carney presents a floral abstract of vibrant crimson blooms. Part of her ongoing GeoFlora series of dynamic abstractions comprised of drips and splatters. The piece features a contrasting palette of red, light pink, orange, and gray. The summery colors suggest wildflower-covered fields and branching sea corals.
About the Artist
Lisa Carney draws her inspiration from the earth's layers and the history they hold. The drips, splashes, scrapes and scratches in her art happen spontaneously and come together to create a cohesive whole. She began to craft a more organic feel in her works after noticing the texture in her works resembled plant roots...

Artist Ronda Waiksnis presents an abstract landscape with soft neutral tones. She paints with expressive strokes, capturing the essence of spring with minimal representation. “In this painting, I’ve put together subtle but energetic colors with bold painterly brushstrokes for a lively view,†says Ronda. The clouds float through the sky, adding to the landscape’s movement.
About the Artist
Ronda Waiksnis captures abstracted, atmospheric movement through her direct application painting process. Rarely using brushes, she applies heavy layers of paint with large palette knives and other tools, shifting the oil paint instinctively. Ronda is inspired by her natural surroundings and strives to capture the mood of any given day. The artist uses muted earth tones and receding horizon lines to demonstrate depth, conveying the transient sky or evanescent reflections in water with expressive feeling. Ronda aims to make art that is emotive and visceral, organic and unrefined. She is passionate about the endless possibilities for innovation that being an artist offers.

Artist Patrick Duffy displays abstract spheres representing the cosmos. He creates a compelling dialogue between the imagination and the fundamentals of all things space. Patrick explores newly learned concepts and a unique way to visualize them through artwork and design. Within his creative techniques, shapes become symbols of time and process—guiding the eye and mind to think of dark solar windswept patterns that are balanced and engaging.
About the Artist
Artist Patrick Duffy creates multi-scaled abstract compositions that seek to realize patterns through process, form, and color. Growing up in the coastal town of Blue Hill, Maine, he started creating artwork very early. He explores time, space, theoretical, and science fiction themes, describing his works as translated visions of paradoxes. Patrick received his BFA from Pratt Institute in 2006, being part of many shows in New York, New England, and Houston, TX. Publications include The New York Times, “Things to See in the Hudson Valley†for the exhibition “Intricate Realities†at the Catskill Arts Society in 2016, as well as “Creating in Color†for Trouvé Magazine Volume 3 in 2015. Since 2019, Patrick has resided in Austin, Texas. He has worked with artists Takashi Murakami (Kai Kai...

Radiant warmth breaks through the abstract skyscape in artist Jason Astorquia's dramatic work. Soft reds and yellows blend with clouds of white and hints of a darker storm departing. Jason meditates on a focused palette with layers of texture and depth of dimension to deliver the essence of a place in time. Large palette knives combine and contrast textures and directions to bring a sunset revelation of milk and honey.
About the Artist
Jason Astorquia recognizes that money is important to the way we think, act, and relate to one another. His “Impressions†series is made up of abstract paintings that are created using the impressions of pennies. Like the mark of consumption on society, Jason repetitively brands his canvases with the mark of physical money. There is a Pop Art element to the work in its bold primary colors, geometric sense of design, and conceptual meaning. His work is as close as you may get to hanging actual money on your wall, a concept that Andy Warhol introduced and played with in his own work. It is evident that there is a lot of planning and precision that goes into each piece. The compositions are like binary code...

Artist Jason Astorquia presents a dynamic abstraction of colors in nature. Golden sunlight, white and cream aether, merge in dimensions of stone in soft orange, beige browns, and deep umbers. Linear dimensions overlap with the spectral hues resulting in a sharp and expressive display. Jason brings elements together with trowels on large surfaces with thick layers of earthen texture to create a focused echo of ancient memory.

Artist Jason Astorquia presents an abstract snowscape in a cascade of lineated colors. "Ice is melting in ethereal whites as the subdued blue and green earth slowly hints at the lively state of Spring," says Jason. The bright turquoise hues emerge from the pensive dark shades of winter. Jason works with layers of color and texture, honing in on the mood of this transitional time inside and out.

A dramatic view of a harbor stretches out into a soft abstractual landscape formation. Living in the Fraser Valley, artist Jenn Williamson looks forward to the wondrous sight this painting evokes memories of. She reimagines the spectacular scenery in a mix of dreamy pastels and tonal hues. The outlook from the bridge brings a sense of calm back into the viewer's spirit. "My thoughts when painting this were mostly surrounding the gratitude I have for my faith, which has carried me through many challenges."

Jenn Williamson expertly evokes the scenery of British Columbia in her soft abstract landscapes. She utilizes defining horizontal and vertical strokes, coupled with a skillful handling of color, to create significant depth in each piece.

Artist Jenn Williamson demonstrates a misty marshland in this contemplative scene. The rhythmic rise and fall of tonal colors break into vaporous clouds hovering over the sky, setting a calming and ethereal ambiance. Jenn paints intuitively but finds herself exploring the new process of basing the piece on an earlier sketch. Her desire to grow as an artist leads her down many new avenues.

Artist Joey Korom displays a predominantly neutral-toned abstract in subtly organized structures. He executes the modern piece in adjoining gray shapes suggesting contemporary forms of architecture. The broad, loose strokes manifest his expressive and intense creativity.
About the Artist
Joey Korom is an abstract expressionist painter who has been a practicing artist for 50 years. He experiments with media, colors, and textures to produce artwork that is “purely optical;†that is, artwork meant to engage the viewer, visually and emotionally, without employing any associations outside of the work itself. Joey is passionate about this expressive type of abstraction, an artistic mode that escapes the rules of perspective and realism. His educational and professional background is in architecture, which he considers to be “the father of all arts.†The use of line, shape, and proportion in Joey’s work is visibly influenced by his experience as an architect, but he seeks to avoid the rigidity involved in architectural draftsmanship. He focuses instead on underlying structure, seductive color, and loose brushwork. The artist sees his style as a personal liberation from the demands of architectural drawing, and yet, he’s never lost the disciplines he was taught.
