“Blue Series” by Mary Collins – March Artist reception

Mary Collins’s artist reception in March was welcomed with warm and positive attitude. The “Blue Series” art show at the Paolo Mejia Art Gallery and Design Studio was Mary’s first solo show. Kudos to Marry Collins who made a leap-of-faith to create artwork that she has been wanting to experiment with. The result is her show entitled “Blue Series” where she experimented with color mixture and schemes, and texture and grounds. We thank Mary and her guests for attending the art show in March.

Featured Art – “Found in the Sand” by Priscilla Ameneyro

 Found in the SandFound in the Sand
Mixed media on paper
11″ x 14″

Priscilla Ameneyro is an experimental artist. In this particular piece, she experiments with acrylic medium and dilutes it to create an almost transparent effect for the ground. She then juxtapose the ground with definite elements creating a post-modern vernacular piece. The grouping of elements alludes to an interesting visual and focal point that hints a sublime connotation with playful overtones.

Featured art – “Golden” by Chico Coelho

Golden

Golden
Acrylic on canvas
20″ x 20″

Chico Coelho is a local Bay Area artist and musician who paints in a tantric-like expression. This painting seemingly implies a meditative visual response as one focuses deeply at the piece. The effect of the painting resonates and shifts around resulting to a sensation of a quasi-calm and ineffable euphoric state. This body of work pulses with creative energy.

Chico’s paintings deal with an amalgamation of styles of pointillism and color field technique. He has been exploring with this experimentation and he calls it Dissolution of Fractals.

Feature Art – “Red Iron Oxide: Homage to David Park” by Douglas Yee

Red Iron Oxide: Homage to David Park

Oil on Canvas
72” x 60”
2011

Douglas Yee is an abstract and figurative painter. In this particular painting, Douglas embarks in expressing the sublime through his minimalistic work. He uses minimalism to capture the simplicity of an expression, emotion or gesture, combined with the element of scale, it capitulates an individual to its vastness of emotional and sensational visual field.
