Garfield, Aryn-Dusk at Island Bay

Garfield, Aryn-Dusk at Island Bay

A rather traditional "sunset" piece, based off of photographs I took at Island Bay Resort in the Florida Keys.

Garfield, Aryn-Evening Communte

Garfield, Aryn-Evening Communte

A photo by my mother, caught my eye for the interesting combination of the mundane affairs on the ground- the people bustling around in human-made devices to end their day of work- and the unadulterated light of the setting sun behind streaks of cloud. I decided to interpret the scene in this piece. Evening Commute Acrylic, wrapped canvas 8 x 8 $200 Aryn Garfield

Garfield, Aryn-On the Edge

Coleman_Karen_Pink Peony_ colored pencil and India ink

Coleman_Karen_Pink Peony_ colored pencil and India ink

In this work, I painted a black India ink wash for the background, leaving the white of the paper for the main flower. Using colored pencils, I applied many layers of translucent pigment to let the colors pay off one another. I then added the bud on top of the ink to mute its colors, causing it to recede into the background. Pink Peony Colored pencil and India ink 12 x 12 $350 Karen Coleman
