I Never Told Anyone Encaustic and Graphite on Carved Basswood Size of Piece: 65 x 60 x 60 My work has always been figurative and focuses on the negative impact of contemporary culture on women and girls' self-image and identity. I Never Told Anyone: is based on research and interviews with adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. I carved these figures in wood from sketches I made from direct observation and from my imagination. Each piece refers directly to one individual narrative reiterating when the abuse started, I stenciled that age at the base of each piece, and distilled the titles down to that one word my subject kept repeating, I was so humiliated, I was so frightened, I am so ashamed, guilt, insult, injury, denial.

Anastasia. The Firebird Oil on Canvas Size of Piece: 30 x 24 Dinner with my nonagenarian friends inspired this piece and is why i called it "Social Hour" I decided to render them through colors and shapes so the focus would be on the connection between them and on the mood of the moment rather than on their features. What I see, hear, feel and experience makes its way into my art. Growing up in multiple cultures influences my work, and my love of fairy tales, fiction, fantasy, and sci-fi seeps through as well. I paint mostly in acrylics and gouache and love to experiment with a variety of techniques and materials. At times my work is autobiographical as I aim to tell a story, convey a feeling, or share memories. In Social Hour my focus was on friendship and aging. Through the use of vibrant colors, a sense of movement, and unexpected imagery, I hope the viewer is drawn into my work in a way that provides space for their own interpretation.

Two Critical Questions Acrylic Size of Piece: 42 x 51 x 1.5 Hayoon Jay Lee is an interdisciplinary artist who explores the tension between indulgence and abnegation as it exists in terms of mind and body as well as on a socio-political level. Her work locates points of contact between Korean material tradition and Western avant-garde vocabulary by using rice shape and rice as an object, motif, commodity, and metaphor. As a building block of civilizations and a marker of wealth differences, rice allows Lee to conceptually play with points of conflict conceptually — oscillating between attraction and repulsion, between Orient and Occident— with the aim of ultimately encouraging reflection on the different ways our conditions and fates are interlinked. Renowned for integrating rice-inspired motifs and organic, visceral shapes in her paintings, sculptures, installations, performances, and videos, Lee’s work features figures embedded within rice forms. This highlights the deep connection between food and life. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Outside Inside Acrylic on Canvas Board Size of Piece: 24 x 30 I feel that every human being is like a portal. We first encounter the external frame, but an entire universe unfolds as we step through the doors. Our inner world shapes our outer reality, just as the outer world, in turn, influences our inner state. A lingering sense of loneliness etches itself into our expressions, while a habit of noticing beauty and goodness softens our features, bringing light to our presence. Perhaps the most powerful anti-aging secret is a genuine smile—one born from childlike trust in life, the belief that everything is unfolding as it should, and the certainty that our adventures are limitless. There is an ever-present, knowing part of us—an angelic essence—watching over, guiding, and smiling at our journey through our many mystical paths. This painting emerged as an unfolding, evolving process that presented infinite possibilities until I realized it was not about choosing a single direction. Instead, I was capturing a state of being, a process of disc. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Dance of the Lily Pads Color Pencil on Drafting Film Size of Piece: 23 x 30 Realism is the style that I have embraced for my work. Perhaps the truth is that it embraced me, flowing naturally from my hand, with inspiration coming from the world around me. Colored pencil is the medium I have chosen for most of my work. What started as a lifestyle choice (pencils are clean and easily transportable from primary residence to lake house) became an artistic choice. I’m a control freak - free and loose is NOT my style - so colored pencils are the perfect medium for me. Their layering and blending capabilities, the transparency of some colors, and vibrant pigments help me convey the interplay of color and light in my subject matter. At times, I use colors that are more brilliant or saturated than what I see in nature. It pleases me, and I hope it pleases the viewer.

Transformation Mixed Media Size of Piece: 10 x 10 Framed Size: 11.5 x 11.5 My work explores the intersection of abstract and figurative art, inviting viewers into a realm where emotions, memories, and human experiences converge. Abstract paintings form a core part of my practice. Through bold brushstrokes, gestural marks, and layered colors, I aim to capture the essence of emotions and translate the intangible onto canvas. These works encourage individual interpretation, allowing personal experiences to shape the meaning derived from each piece. Complementing my abstract explorations are figurative paintings. Here, I delve into the human form, capturing nuances of body language, gestures, and facial expressions. Depicting individuals in various emotional states, I strive to evoke empathy and spark contemplation about the complexities of human existence. The interplay of light, shadow, and color infuses the figures with depth and presence, fostering an intimate connection with the viewer. My exploration of the human form extends into figurative sculptures and installations. Working with tactile materials like clay, metal, and mixed media, I create three-dimensional representations that inhabit physical space. These works offer a more immersive experience, inviting viewers to explore the interplay between the artwork and its environment and to connect with the art and its narratives on a deeper level. Across all mediums, I strive to create a dialogue between viewer and artwork. I invite introspection and self-reflection, exploring the beauty and complexity of the human experience, and connecting with universal emotions. Ultimately, my art aims to inspire contemplation, evoke a range of emotions, and encourage a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

Those Were The Days Acrylic on Canvas Size of Piece: 20 x 20 As a visual artist and a dancer, I find many connections between abstract painting and improvisational dance. Just as I let the music move me from within, I allow my artistic intuition to bring my brush to life. I make art because I don’t know how to live without creating. The foundation of my art is connections. I aim to communicate the essence of a relationship or place with my visual language. In my art, ideas and expressions are more important than the materials. My goal is to transport the viewer to a place, person or moment in their life. I create abstract paintings with harmonious and brave colors. Using acrylic, mixed media, and collage material, I love exploring with unusual tools for surprising and delightful effects. My paintings go through three stages. I start by playing with colors and marks, following my intuition, allowing my technical knowledge only here and there. Then comes the 'ugly stage.' Nothing seems to be working, the colors and shapes struggle to be saved. It’s tempting to discard the work right here, but I always push through knowing the beauty I can create. This connection to my work brings me to the home stretch. I will never sign a piece until I’m completely connected with it. Once I am, you will be too.

Her creations have been exhibited in private collections in the US and internationally. She is a life member at the Art Students League where she has studied for 13 years.

Blossoming Acrylic and Gouache on wood (set of 3) Size of Piece: 9 x 13 I'm Tasha Branham, a New Jersey-based artist, practicing contemporary multidisciplinary art influenced by Henri Matisse. My work involves various mediums—epoxy resin, natural wood, acrylics, glass, mixed media, oil pastels, and digital art, creating a unique fusion. Exploring storytelling, faith, and hope, I aim to encourage joy and healing by reconnecting with one's inner child. My art conveys vulnerability, wonder, and the essence of faith as a Black woman.

My art strives to inspire joy, reconnect viewers with their imagination, and help them rediscover wonder within.

I Dreamt I Was a Bird but I Could Not Fly_#3 Acrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas Size of Piece: 36 x 12 There are times I struggle with depression. It's often a result of chronic physical pain from arthritis and from migraines...as well as from the maddening sounds of my tinnitus. Therefore, I turn to my Art as my primary emotional therapy. In my third painting, from my series "I Dreamt I Was A Bird But I Could Not Fly", I created a visual metaphor of my physical pain. Once I felt boundless, soaring like a fearless hawk; only to eventually have my wings clipped... entwining & binding me to the ground. In "Escape into My Garden" I use the tactile elements of molded paper, words & flowers from my own garden, to represent the therapeutic physicality in processing my feelings in my personal Art Therapy. Meanwhile, the visual of a person climbing inside this magnificent flower best expresses the Emotional Escapism & happiness that's often derived from 'Garden Therapy'. "Escape into my World" incorporates a myriad of elements which have brought joy to my life: My art as my visual Storytelling of our world & our human condition. As a woman who loves looking at the stars, wondering how we fit within our vast universe, while spending time in, on or around water, appreciating how precious our Earth’s water really is. And I am also a musician who has found that playing flute has gifted me friendships (over many decades) with like-minded creative musical souls...most of whom also share a love for creating art.

The Butterfly Dance Oil on Linen Size of Piece: 36 x 36 My art practice in oil and plein air painting is a fusion of scientific precision and artistic expression, capturing the intricate details of human and animal anatomies alongside the dynamic interplay of light and shadow. My works, such as the graceful dance of an full figured nude woman with a Swallowtail butterfly and the solitary figure of a man walking away from a woman who loves him, into a lush, curvilinear, New York State landscape, reflect a deep engagement with nature's beauty juxtaposed against the looming threat of environmental catastrophe. I am an interdisciplinary artist of Abenaki descent, weaving indigenous iconography and ancient narratives into contemporary commentary. My paintings explore the liminal spaces between abstraction and representation, the male and the female, spectacle and solitude, where I challenge these dichotomies to reveal a more nuanced reality. In my work, impending doom casts a shadow over scenes of beauty, chaos, and apocalypse, inviting a dialogue on the fragility of our environment. Through this lens, I employ oil painting not just for its traditional beauty but for its capacity to convey the urgency of ecological issues. My art is a synthesis of science and spirituality, where each brushstroke is an act of both celebration and warning.

We Never Surrender Acrylic, collage, thread on panel Size of Piece: 24 x 24 Framed Size: 25 x 25 These portraits are the strong women in my life who walked before and beside me for a lifetime. I was inspired by a host of old photographs on in crumbling black photo albums that have survived 100 years. Once Upon an Art is the big sister I never had, my cousin, the reason I am an artist (too). In collage, I’ve highlighted only snips of her incredible command of language as poetry. With minimal words and intense curiosity about the world around her, she crafts short stories that belie typical speech, giving us glimpses of her genius. She divines an emotional story of our aging grandmother perhaps saying: “I forget how to use the words. I watch conversations and great-grandchildren grow in my very hands. I hide things and forget them, and therefore it gets easier. I fall asleep during the news, and so it gets easier.” We Never Surrender and But He Died both honor the legacy of our grandma. Widowed less than six months after the birth of her 5th child, she survived two World Wars, rations, The Great Depression, 50 years day after day in a sweatshop sewing men's shoes so her children could eat. Her story lives on in how I meet life, productive, stalwart, I can do it - and that has passed to my daughters, and her grandchildren and now mine. We have her story now, and traditions, making our daily bread and getting it all done to meet another day.

Hey Will You Look At Her Now! Collage Size of Piece: 30 x 22 Framed Size: 33 x 25 Working in collage allows for free association. I use vintage periodical and book images to create discrete worlds merging image, color, and placement. I play with concepts and redefine reality, combining their elements intuitively sometimes with an idea of what I want to achieve and sometimes just letting the elements drive the image, one thing leading to another. There is always something of a surrealist element to collage, letting logic and reality go. In these two images, I tweak the idea of the "proper" woman to let the viewer know she may not be quite who you want her to be.

Explorer Oil on Canvas Size of Piece: 24 x 12 Framed Size: 26 x 14 I am both a professional musician and artist. I experience life as having order as well as disorder through sound and sight. I create art along with music.

Just as in music, patterns are important in art. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Alleviation of Sorrow Oil on Canvas Size of Piece: 30 x 24 Framed Size: 34 x 28 Since my childhood I began to look for the harmony contained in art.

The Thinkerness Sculpture Size of Piece: 21 x 12.5 French sculptor living in New York, I have been nourishing my art through various cultures and encounters while living in France, Indonesia, Russia, India, and now in the United States. Through semi-figurative sculptures, I use body lines and gestures to evoke emotions and offer an insightful perspective on life through a woman’s lens. I love playing with materials, reflections, and shadows—where movement emerges from subtle suggestions, and shadows amplify the story. My process, driven by experimentation and the pursuit of new techniques, allows for unexpected discoveries and the freedom to share my vision of life.

Guardian III Sculpture Size of Piece: 11 x 8 x 5 Inspiration surrounds us, and I am no exception. Nature is the most powerful force behind my work for many reasons. The materials I use are natural elements harvested from my daily life—transformed and given a second life through recycling, honoring the Earth in the process. Women are another deep source of inspiration. I am continually moved by my sisters—their strength, resilience, and the gifts they bring to the world. We have fought countless battles to claim our space, and we continue to fight as we challenge the patriarchy and defend our rights. My *Earth Guardians* embody this spirit—they are protectors of the planet, the essence of Mother Nature herself.

I love using mixed media because of the variety of textures and marks I can create. Unbreakable Bloom Like a bouquet woven from resilience and love, these six women stand together, their strength intertwined. They lift one another, knowing that surrender is never an option when those they love depend on them. Reflections She looks back, not to dwell in the shadows of the past but to gather its light. Mother Stories A mother weaves an enchanting story in which the air around them shimmers with magic. The barely visible figures exist within a dreamlike haze of swirling greens, purples, and golden hues.
