    The Vision: The spirit of daring creativity continues to flourish. This week’s release showcases how flowers can inspire visions that transcend the ordinary. “Purple Flower Path,” a marker drawing, introduces a mesmerizing pattern of repeating floral motifs. This piece is a literal visual path that draws the viewer into a hypnotic, imaginative experience. Complementing this is “Hummingbird in the Flowers.” In this acrylic and watercolor piece, the vibrant, almost fantastical colors of both the bird and the blossoms push the boundaries of realistic representation. This final release reinforces the theme of unbridled imagination, inviting us to see the natural world through a kaleidoscope of artistic interpretation. What does unbridled creativity mean to you?

    The Unbound: The first week’s trio explodes with daring color palettes and expressive techniques. Each piece is an exploration of a creative freedom, unbound by convention. “Rhapsody in Bloom,” an acrylic painting, showcases a fearless approach to texture and hue. Its sweeping, gestural strokes embody a raw, untamed energy. Next, “Crimson Geometry,” a marker drawing, marries this boldness with imaginative design. The structured blocks and stylized petals reveal a playful yet deliberate artistic vision. The “Barbados Lily,” an acrylic painting, stands as a testament to dramatic imagination. Its deep crimson tones and intense lighting create a bloom that feels both powerful and otherworldly. Together, this initial offering celebrates the courage to see flowers not just as they are, but as they could be. What artistic vision or expression do these pieces inspire in you?

    World on Fire: The destruction of a canvas, painted with raw energy (Part 2)

    September 27th Release

    The Unstoppable Spread: Last week, we explored the initial chaos, but what happens when the destruction is fully underway? This week, our focus shifts to the beautiful, yet terrifying, side of the fire that rages on. These two new acrylic pieces show how new forms can take shape even within chaos. Flying Flowers of Fire showcases a pulsing, fiery power through intense reds and yellows. While the scattered forms hint at impending destruction, they also evoke a sense of fleeting beauty, like fiery blossoms caught in a destructive wind. In stark contrast, Forest of Flames depicts the relentless advance of disorder. Dynamic, black vines reach across the red and orange canvas like an unstoppable force, a stark and powerful visual of destruction’s inexorable advance. Together, these pieces serve as a reminder that in the most destructive moments, a terrible and beautiful power can bloom, shaping new forms from the ashes of the old. Where have you witnessed something beautiful or new emerge from a moment of chaos or destruction?

    September 20th Release

    The Initial Chaos: The current state of our world, marked by destruction and chaos, finds its abstract representation in this week’s art release. We’re featuring two new pieces that capture this frantic energy. Fire Vines, an acrylic painting, captures the untamed, wild growth of chaos. Bold, black tendrils, much like a rapidly spreading virus, twist and swirl against a backdrop of intense, fiery colors. It’s a visual metaphor for how quickly disorder can spread. Fire Cracked Open, a watercolor and marker drawing, is a more raw and visceral depiction. Gradients of fiery colors form a pulsing heart, but it is not whole. It’s been brutally torn apart by sharp, jagged lines, symbolizing the deep-seated pain and division that can emerge when destruction takes hold. Together, these pieces reflect the deep-seated pain and rapid spread of disorder in our world. Where in your world do you see a forest of flames or flowers of fire?

    September 13th Release

    Enduring Growth: This week, we shift to a different perspective on the high school experience, one focused on enduring growth. These acrylic pieces offer a more grounded look at how we bloom and build a foundation for the future. Purple Loose Strifle & Goldenrod showcase blooms and growth as the central theme, literally depicted by the flourishing purple and yellow flowers that represent blossoming friendships and personal growth. The energy is captured in the swirling, organic background lines and the vibrant, lively application of the paint, giving the piece a feeling of life and movement. The heavy, purple, rock-like forms, in Landscape in Purple & Gold, represent the foundational memories and challenges that give shape to our past. The raw energy of high school is still present in the bright, yellow sky and the textured green growth climbing the structures. This green represents a different kind of bloom—the resilient life and growth that comes from a solid, and sometimes difficult, foundation. What landscape from your past do these pieces remind you of?

    September 6th Release

    Chaos & Battle: This week’s release features two acrylic paintings, each an abstract representation of the chaos and growth that happens during those four years of high school. Stars & Swirls is a literal landscape of memory, flowing and dream-like. You can almost feel the wild, free-form energy of those high school hallways in the chaotic purple swirls and the firework-like spray of gold dots. While the star-like flowers that emerge from the motion evoke blooms and the growth into adulthood. In Those HS Feelings there is an undeniable energy in the free-form purple spirals on the yellow background that capture the chaotic energy of teenage angst. The repeating pattern of star-like blossoms on the textured purple side, suggests moments of celebration, achievement and growth. While Stars & Swirls captures the grand, dream-like energy of the era, Those HS Feelings zooms in on the quiet, internal battles and triumphs that made it all real. Together, they form a landscape of memory that acknowledges both the chaos and the highlights of the high school experience. What landscape from your past do these pieces remind you of?
