Dovecote

 

This painting featuring hundreds of birdhouses intrigued me.  It is called "Dovecote" and was painted by Kerry Thompson a California born artist who now lives, works and teaches in New York City.  His work is described as an exploration of the delicate and complex world of nature and the human relationship to it.  

I saw this work at the Scottsdale Ferrari Art exhibit.

Patio

 

This work by Zsudaka Nzinga Terrell is called "Patio".  I fell in love with all the colors and patterns used in this image.  Zsudaka is a multidisciplinary artist and educator living in Washington D.C.  She creates works using various hand-dying and printmaking techniques using a range of textiles and multiple types of paper.  You can read more about the complex process she uses here.  

I found this artwork at the Scottsdale Ferrari Art Festival.

Entrance to the Village

 


Howard Schleeter (1903-1976) was the son of a commercial artist who studied at the Albright Art School in Buffalo New York.  He moved to New Mexico in 1929 and like many people, he struggled to make ends meet during the great depression.  However, several WPA projects helped.

He painted mostly in abstraction as this painting shows.  

I saw this painting at the Scottsdale Ferarri Art festival.  

His work can be found in several galleries including the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

Pointillism

 


This painting by Tessa Nicole features a new kind of pointillism using just one palette knife.  There is something about this style that fascinated me.  

I saw this painting at the Scottsdale Ferrari Art festival last year.  Tessa paints some beautiful landscape themes and you can see examples of her work on her website.  Her work is beautiful.
