Winter Lights / abstract realism, minimalism, calm monochrome
By Anne Subercaseaux
Located in Burlingame, CA
Anne Subercaseaux's resplendent paintings offer calm in an otherwise hurried world. In 'Winter Lights', shades of grey are at play in the 18 x 24 inch vertical oil on canvas painting. Anne Subercaseaux finds substance in the insubstantial, in paintings that freeze the ephemeral patterns of reflection and shadow. In her muted, almost monochrome palettes, images seem familiar but still elusive. The precise silhouette of a bridge girder or a windblown branch moves into focus and out again, a fleeting glimpse from the corner of the eye...

In the Woods
Located in Burlingame, CA
Artist Jill Keller Peters is a colorist whose abstract color-field oil paintings communicate ideas through color. By juxtaposing pure and vivid hues that speak to each other when combined, Keller Peters choreographs rhythm and space through a poetic visual language. Her geometric abstract work is informed by keen observations of nature and years of realist landscape painting and photography. Utilizing a full-spectrum radiance of light, which is both, practical and inspirational, her traditional oil on canvas paintings delight the senses while celebrating light as the source of all energy and sustenance for life, itself. Here is 'In the Woods...
