ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Katarina's works are in private collections in Luxembourg, Copenhagen, Palm Springs; Australia and Germany.
Katarina Joys studied Algebra and Geometry in Munich, after which she spent 3 years sailing to remote islands in South America and North America, searching for new geometric shapes in cold and hot climates, in search of mathematical perfection through the spontaneity of the natural world. A coexistence of rhythms are numbers, logic and illogical are what moves her painting.

Kinetic Awakening
Located in London, London
“A powerful contemporary abstract painting defined by dynamic motion, bold color accents, and refined compositional balance—perfect for collectors seeking a distinctive, investment-worthy piece.”
Original contemporary abstract painting for sale—large canvas artwork featuring expressive brushstrokes in burgundy, blue, green, and red on a neutral beige and grey background. This modern abstract expressionist piece highlights dynamic movement, layered texture, and high-contrast color fields. Perfect for luxury home décor, contemporary interior design, upscale office spaces, and serious art collectors seeking unique investment-worthy abstract art available to buy online.
DESCRIPTION:
“Kinetic Awakening” is a striking contemporary abstract painting that captures the sensation of motion at the edge of perception. Sweeping, gestural strokes in deep burgundy, ultramarine, emerald, and scarlet surge upward from a subtly toned backdrop of blush and soft grey. These vibrant marks appear to vibrate, scatter, and converge—giving the composition a sense of dynamic lift, as though the forms have just broken into flight.
The interplay of deliberate color accents against the serene neutral field creates a powerful visual tension: energetic yet harmonious, spontaneous yet intentional. The work evokes themes of emergence, evolution, transformation, and the charged moment between chaos and order.
This piece is ideal for collectors who appreciate contemporary abstraction with a bold but refined voice—art that commands space in a luxury interior, private collection, or curated corporate environment. The painting’s balance of elegance and energy makes it a compelling statement piece in modern architectural spaces.

"Restless Sea, " Contemporary Abstract Painting
By Teodora Guererra
Located in Westport, CT
This contemporary abstract statement painting by Teodora Guererra is made with acrylic and oil paint on canvas. It features a coastal palette, with layers of paint applied in wide, sweeping gestures, layering varying shades of blue over one another. The painting is signed by the artist on the back of the canvas, and is wired and ready to hang.
Teodora Guererra’s abstract artistic vision has evolved throughout her years spent painting and teaching in Fairfield County, Connecticut; Tucson, Arizona, and upstate New York. Arizona’s naturally radiant landscape and arid climate led her to experiment with rich under-painting and vivid color; while the shifting seasons of the East Coast inspired Guererra to pursue dripping and staining techniques. Her focus has always been pushing the limits through experimentation with new materials.
“As an artist, painting can be tormenting and sublime at the same time," the artist says of her work. "I'm a big risk taker, experimenting with different materials to layer, stain and saturate color on large canvases. My most successful work looks as if it happened all at once. It sometimes takes 7 or more paintings to produce a successful one and then it's a beautiful thing."
Guererra received her undergraduate and graduate Art degrees from Southern Connecticut University, The College of Saint Rose and Skidmore College. Guererra’s paintings can be found in public and private collections across the U.S., including the Allmen Health and Wellness Center for Women in New York and SUNY Brockport, NY, William & Sonoma, San Francisco, CA. Her influences are Pat Steir, John McCracken, Helen Frankenthaler, Donald Jud, Bernar Venet, Agnes Martin and Brian Rutenberg...

Ocean Blue Abstract Expressionist
By Jerzy Kubina
Located in Lake Worth Beach, FL
Ocean
Large Blue Abstract Expressionist artist signed and titled.
Jerzy Kubina Polish/American Artist: Jerzy was born in Zamosc, Poland, 1956. Studied at the Academy Of Fine Arts in Krakow 1981/1986 in the painting department under individual instructions of prof. Jan Szancenbach. He decided to immigrate to New York in 1986. Jerzy constructs large scale images on silk using technologies to create layers, textures, translucency. He is searching for a language that expresses the ideas inside. Sometimes the paintings are quiet and translucent, and then suddenly become very dramatic. There is a symbiotic relationship between him and the materials.
Jerzy Kubina has exhibited his work widely in the US, including at Soho New York's first-ever gallery, the esteemed O. K. Harris. He has also shown internationally, in Paris, Poland and Mexico. Kubina graduated Magna Cum Laude from the M. A. program of The Academy of Fine Arts, Cracow, Poland.
Artist Statement.
"I do not limit myself to a classical representation of an image. I'm in constant search of new media which not only enriches the subject but also inspires me to new forms of expression. Visual appreciation is a creative exercise performed in a specified time and a specific emotional state. The subject must be individual and unique. I do not attempt to keep a tight rein on my art’s framework, but give myself the opportunity to individualize each of the works. My present concerns are of the sacred and the profane, always longing for harmony, accompanied by destruction and devastation, my inner world translates that pulse into color images. My new works are a continuation of the process of creating art for art's sake.
