A Certain Green

For me, it's still fascinating, sometimes even enchanting to find artists who find a niche and plumb it thoroughly. Jos Van Merendonk is obsessed with chromium oxide (green) and is doing just fine - thank you very much.
For more examples of his work, you can visit his Website or visit the slide show Here (click on the picture).

Here's a very nice nine-plus minute sampler of Aboriginal Art. Whether you're already a fan or not, you'll enjoy seeing these different, yet iconic works in a museum setting.

Joseph James is represented by Galerie Anhava and after reading the short statement explaining how he makes his works, I'm still a bit confused; but it sure sounds like an interesting oeuvre. It seems slightly similar to the way I approach some paintings.

Intimate Lines, Meaningful Dots

 Knowing that Pat Adams (b,1928) was a student of Max Beckmann, goes a long way in helping to understand her abstractions. She's represented by the Zabriskie Gallery, where you'll find images of her work, a Press Release and an Essay.
BigTown Gallery has four large images. (click on 8,9,10 & 11)

Turning Japanese

I'm not referring to the pop-rock, song by The Vapors, but to the way Kaoru Mansour updates some of the visual icons we associate with Japanese-style art and makes them her own.  You'll see what I mean when you visit her  Website and explore the different facets of her oeuvre. Several paragraphs Here, fill in some of the blanks.

Marks With Meaning

Although Edwina Leapman's oeuvre is about line and process, I like to "read" them as abstract texts. You'll understand that better when you look at the first two examples of her work at Annely Juda Fine Art.  I'm showing this particular image from said Gallery to show you the sumptuous color she can achieve. This in depth article makes you appreciate her work even more.
