"New York... Here I Come!"

Value: $450

FROM A MOVING CAR: Drawings
"I started to draw from a moving car a number of years ago. As a passenger, highway images fly by at breakneck speed. I draw in a frenzy trying to catch a glimpse of something that has already passed my vision. A truck becomes a lamp post or a billboard becomes a tree, etc. It's an enjoyable game of juxtaposing images on top of one another and discovering a different dimension. I have come to love the immediacy of line and gesture and the approach has significantly spilled into my paintings and prints as well"

Value: $250

Artist Statement

"With my eyes closed, I am surrounded by ocean waves, falling snow, prismatic sunsets, or swaying sea grass. The air is fresh and inviting. Imagining nature's song playing for me, a sense of calm takes over as I relish a familiar journey. Residents of Harwich, Massachusetts, my boys, husband, and I love our Cape Cod community. I am always making note of my next painting from our surroundings.

Graduating magna cum laude from Franklin Pierce University, I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Graphic Communications including minors of Fine Art and Art History in 1996. In addition to graphic design, my early studies included life drawing, glassblowing, and photography; I later concentrated my fine arts studies on painting."

JANE LINCOLN
Grid: Blue

Value: $250

"My paintings employ the use of color as the primary subject. I am referring to the relationship of the colors working together as a whole. I strive to create an atmosphere, mood and experience through color alone. The color relationships in these paintings percolate for months before completion. They are comprised of bands of hand-painted acrylic on BFK Rives paper. The segments of painted paper are collaged onto an archival board which stands out from the wall an inch in order to project a colored shadow surrounding the work. This glow will connect to the surface enriching the subject of the painting. In the transition from one color to the next, hues will shift, razor thin edges appear, and vibrations occur. The titles of the paintings are alliterations which describe the character of the subject color. The paintings are present the viewer with color relationships which may trigger a memory or be a new experience, but all are intended to allow the viewer a moment to pause and observe the power of color."
