Ronda Waiksnis

Here for a Moment, Abstract Oil Painting

2021

Artist Comments
Artist Ronda Waiksnis presents a powerful abstract seascape scene in strong shades of blue. “It’s the movement of the water that gives this painting energy and interest,” says Ronda. Roaring waves dramatically crash into the briny deep. Several sizes of palette knives achieve the rich layered coats of paint.

About the Artist
Ronda Waiksnis captures abstracted, atmospheric movement through her direct application painting process. Rarely using brushes, she applies heavy layers of paint with large palette knives and other tools, shifting the oil paint instinctively. Ronda is inspired by her natural surroundings and strives to capture the mood of any given day. The artist uses muted earth tones and receding horizon lines to demonstrate depth, conveying the transient sky or evanescent reflections in water with expressive feeling. Ronda aims to make art that is emotive and visceral, organic and unrefined. She is passionate about the endless possibilities for innovation that being an artist offers.
