I am moved to pick up the brush for the outsiders, the misunderstood, the suffering; women whose lives have been shaped by disaster, betrayal, hardship, and yet shaped into something beautiful.
Featured Artist Dorothy Siemens
Even though nature is my inspiration, my imagery comes from my imagination, where nature is infinitely bolder and more vivid.
Featured Artist Maya Kuvaja
My current body of work is a more inwardly focused contemplation. Images derived from dreams and memories are layered together to create poetic narratives of personal histories.
Featured Artist Nicolette Maguire Bonnstetter
My main objective in my art is to see how placing two colors beside each other will create a feeling or a mood that might lead to a point of discussion.

I continue to work each day on finding ways of pouring out my emotions onto the canvas. I look to discover the means of saying what is in my heart and develop a pleasing image.
Featured Artist Julia Rodriguez
My intention is to create a harmony of joyfulness, and arouse a sense of emotion with my art.
Featured Artist Hal Mayforth
In some ways, my work reflects the chaos and rhythms of nature and everyday life and how chaos can unexpectedly veer towards beauty.
Featured Artist Hilarie Couture
I need my work to have meaning, tell a story, and express and evoke a response in the viewer as well as achieving a sense of sophistication that words can’t describe. That is my goal.
Featured Artist Tom Fedro
With bright, vibrant hues and vivid, exciting shapes, I paint in a variety of styles…Whatever mode I am into at the moment I try to bring light and life to the canvas with color, whimsy, and joy.
Featured Artist Eva Currie
I endeavor to capture the sights and sounds of the living world around me with every stroke of my brush as I take it to canvas. It is in nature’s dance that I hear the songs of glory and celebrate with color.
The Art of Color & Whimsy

Featured Artist Paulette Insall
I work in abstract because I feel that it allows all pretenses to fall away. There is nothing standing in the way of connecting on a deep level with the work. I want my work to resonate, to touch a person’s heart in a way that fills them with great emotion.
