About the Item

This minimalist layered painting is by David Skillicorn. Hw began his career as a documentary filmmaker and is a self-taught artist. His process is one of applying paint liberally, carving and digging back into it, and building up layers. He allows his intuition to be the primary driving force, although he makes hundreds of decisions as the work emerges. Through the process of application and excavation Skillicorn“finds” the painting as much as “makes” it. He strives for his work to convey something that is not so much experienced with the mind, as felt with the body…. in an intimate, visceral, and contemplative way.

Magnolia 2
By Liz Barber
Located in Westport, CT
Liz Barber's organic abstract paintings are layered bursts of energy inspired by nature’s movement. Forms and lines fall into a sea of emotion. Shapes and reflections drift into volumetric configurations. She pours colors onto the canvas and watches what happens. Intuitively, she then edits.

The most common reoccurring theme in Barber’s work is the ocean or natural elements and forms. The shapes serve as anchors for the mind to stop and reflect upon. They can be ambiguous or recognizable forms based on what the viewer brings to the piece. Barber leans towards distinctive color palettes at certain times of the year as the seasons change. They are either subtle or intense color interaction...
