About the Item
Artist Comments
Alicia describes this rich scene as a "dreamy and rarefied abstract landscape." Blues, turquoise and green roll across the canvas, resembling evening fog cascading down the hills of the coast. Alicia Dunn draws from her local northern California surrounding to create scenes of the coast and ocean.
About the Artist
Alicia Dunn’s abstract paintings are affected by a confluence of elements: the weather, her mood, and the properties of her materials. “Ceding control to these things allows the magic to happen,” the artist explains. Alicia's paintings capture the unique energy of nature, particularly that of the beach where she lives. Staring into the tranquil and luminous colors of her work, the viewer connects to shape of the waves, the swiftness of the wind, and the beginning of a day. Alicia is inspired by the simple things in life. Her awe of nature’s perfection and the thrill of constant discovery are conveyed in her art. Alicia works in water-based acrylic paint, and has developed a technique using blending gels to achieve not only rich color and texture, but also an eroded, weathered effect that reflects the process of the painting’s creation. Like nature itself, each painting shifts with the viewer, chronicling time through movement and beauty.

- Floral Abstract, Abstract PaintingBy Julia HackerLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Julia Hacker displays enticing abstraction of floral forms that blend the elements of fauvist landscapes and naturalistic plein-air scenes. The harmony between organic shapes and the vibrant hues of magenta, orange, and white adds mystery to the jungle setting. The interplay of light and dark tones gives depth and a sense of allure to the composition.About the Artist
Julia works from a studio in her home that overlooks a wooded ravine and finds inspiration in the natural order of the universe. Her art draws from many sources of imagery, but consistently possesses a magical and ethereal quality. Whether the image depicts stylized snowfall, glistening flora, or a collaged figure, the work exudes a fleeting element of beauty that transcends reality. Julia primarily creates using painting or illustrated collage. When she paints, she foregoes sketching beforehand, instead allows emotion and intuition to drive the composition. Her collages are influenced by illustration techniques acquired from her Master’s degree in fashion design. Julia likes being able to switch between the two artistic methods, often working simultaneously on multiple projects to keep her creative inspiration fresh and constantly evolving.Words that describe this painting: organic shapes, plants, nature, abstract expressionism, leaves, floral, acrylicpaint, jungle, abstract, flora, abstract, flora, acrylic painting, orange

Artist Comments
Artist Lisa Carney paints an arresting field of purple wildflowers. As part of her ongoing series of floral abstracts, Lisa uses drip and splatter techniques to express the blooms blanketing the landscape.

Lisa Carney draws her inspiration from the earth's layers and the history they hold. The drips, splashes, scrapes and scratches in her art happen spontaneously and come together to create a cohesive whole. She began to craft a more organic feel in her works after noticing the texture in her works resembled plant roots...Category21st Century and Contemporary Abstract Abstract Paintings
