Christy Knell’s paintings are created with beeswax, pigment, and gold foil and leaf. Christy aims to reveal the inherent beauty in the medium by allowing the science to take control, revealing naturally occurring textures and designs through the addition of the blow torch. The materials work together to suggest other elements of nature like marble, stone, and smoke.

Naomi Gilbert’s work is inspired by the fundamental oneness of the universe and the patterns and particles that run throughout the cosmos. Nature repeats itself: images of microscopic life resemble galaxies which resemble deep sea environments. Atoms flow through everything. It is these energies, and a sense of connectivity, that inspire her to create.

Constanza Mallol paints what is alive, that breathes, changes, gives off scent, promises of touch, taste. She wants to seize the thrill of that life and her life colliding. Not photographic render, exalted emotion of recognizing life. Painting nature, breathing that same air, light, changing, slowly dying as she is dying she feels complete and her life is full of meaning.

Beverly Shipko paints joyful memories of desserts and foods. Often partially eaten, these simple pleasures elicit nostalgia (especially since Riviera closed!). Experiments with broccoli in candy vending machines stimulated a dialog, inspiring an ongoing series. This is Year 5 creating Ikebana arrangements, which will be displayed. Come take a bite out of life (and an Oreo!) with food, flowers, and fun!

Larry Blizard’s imagination is a deluge of hysterically funny ideas, all of which work. His drawings are warm and delicate. Technically, they are masterful.
