Medium: Painting
Artist Statement:
"I begin by meticulously preparing my canvas, ensuring a smooth and receptive surface for the paints to flow upon. Using a combination of paints and pigments I’ve carefully selected for vibrancy and compatibility, along with my own unique pouring medium and cell activator, I manipulate the paints to form intricate cellular patterns and striking contrasts.
"As I guide the paints onto the canvas, I become a conductor of color — tilting, turning, applying fire and breaths of air — watching in awe as the colors mingle and marry, creating marbled swirls and organic shapes that seem alive."
Artist #2: Dganit Moreno
Medium: Textiles
Artist Statement:
"I use cotton fabric to create architectural imagery. The softness and lack of structural support in fabric contrast sharply with the solidity and permanence of architecture."
Artist #3: Robert Asselmeier
Medium: Wood
Artist Statement:
"My work focuses on the connections of art in nature through sustainable resourcing of naturally fallen trees in the St. Louis area. I represent the life, spirit, and energy of the trees through uniquely turned wooden vessels and sculptures."
