watercolor painting of loons on a lake

“Legacy Loon Lake” watercolour, 12″ x 18″ by Paul Gilbertson

 

Paul “Gilby” Gilbertson

This watercolor highlights the spirit of being “up north” in both Wisconsin and Minnesota. The call of the loon is both magical and beautiful at the same time and soothes the human spirit. Notice the impressionistic nature of this painting throughout the piece, as I utilize salt as a special ingredient.

watercolor of a poppy field

“California Poppies” watercolor, 9″ x 12″ by Janet Stormer

 

Janet Stormer

This abstract watercolor reflects the fleeting beauty and quiet strength of California poppies through fluid shapes, layered light, and vibrant color. I make art to express emotions and rhythms of nature that words can’t capture.

This oil painting of a soft petaled cosmos is created in a representational style with the swash of a gold stem being a nod to my love of graphic art.

 

portrait of Jimi Hendrix

“Jimi Hendrix Electric Soul” acrylic, 16″ x 20″ by Cathy Maguire

 

Cathy Maguire

This piece channels Jimi Hendrix’s bold spirit and dreamlike energy. Flowing brushstrokes, deep purples, and drips evoke his emotional intensity, musical fluidity, and the raw, expressive freedom that redefined rock history.

 

watercolor painting of decaying leaves

“Decaying” Part 1, watercolor on A5 640gsm cold pressed watercolor paper by Dian Nugrahaningsari

 

Dian Nugrahaningsari

This dried decaying Lilium represents as a symbol of grieving stages; denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.

I was attracted to the reflective surfaces and the interaction of the articles on the tabletop. I have fun looking for the variations in color and this one has many.
