About the Artist
Vibrant colors makes Natasha Tayles happy. She enjoys discovering new methods and techniques of painting and creativity. For her, art is an important form of self-expression. It's about being in my own world where it feels free, fun, easy and enjoyable, she explains. She feels the most liberated when working in an abstract style and prefers everything bright and colorful.

This piece is part of Voskan's ongoing series of abstract expressionist paintings. He spends many hours over multiple sessions creating each piece. Sometimes he will work on a painting for months or even years until he finds the right inspiration to complete the composition. This piece was created thinking about the actions of a day, after which we ruminate over the things that happened throughout the day. It also reflects on the anxieties we feel after a long day, where we worry about the things that were said or done, says Voskan.
About the Artist
When Voskan Galstian approaches a canvas, he does so with an open mind. When I am creating art I tend to sever my mind from making decisions he explains. His paintings show this intuitive process in their dynamic movement and unique color combinations. Voskan finds inspiration in abstract expressionism; in the vein of that style, he paints based on his deepest emotions. Many people have expressed that they feel a connection with his work - in some cases, it soothes them. When he's not making art, you can find Voskan traveling or reading about geography.
