Natalie Sobo Selfie / So What Do You Want To Tell Me 2020, Acrylic on canvas with glass stones, 20 x 16 $910 In my artwork I try to find the sound of color, to hear the color and to make the picture sound. I want to hear the vibration of the colors and tones, rhythm of the lines and shapes. I try to create the visual harmony akin to the auditory sensation that we feel while listening to music. I try to find the right tones, rhythms and vibrations to bring color, shape and line to create a visual music of harmony and happiness.

Dashuai Sun Untitled 2020, Acrylic, 22 x 18 $3000 My work begins with an idea and builds upon that idea as I work the painting. Photos are taken of subject matter that corresponds to my idea only as a reference point. The hinge that I painted is not about the image of the hinge itself but about the color- oriented composition. Without thinking about the hinge, it is still an abstract painting of colors.

Marti White Primavera en el Desierto de Sonora 2019. Acrylic on Paper, 19x24 $450 Marti White is an artist working in Tucson, AZ. Marti's work is primarily in collage, but she also works in acrylic and mixed media on canvas. Marti's work is abstract with some representational aspects. Her most recent series of collages, called \"Escena,\" are abstract impressions of landscapes or scenery. One large series of works in various media called \"Apertures,\" explored the idea of there being a story behind the surface of the painting - beyond the windows, doors or light passages. It was her hope that the viewer would find a personal story in these mysteries. Ms. White's work is shown locally, nationally. and internationally online. She seeks to engage the viewer in a conversation with the work that is personal and meaningful. Marti tries to get what is in her unconscious mind onto the paper or canvas. She feels that art is a journey of the soul.

Susan Wiley Pier Pelicans 2018, Watercolor paper 30 x22 $1400 I begin with about ten layers of paint, applying textures in between each layer until I feel that the background is suitable to a particular subject I have in mind. I then paint a flattened version of the subject so that they appear to be on the same plane. I generally choose subjects that have an edge.

Thomas Wilke Sunrise at The Watering Hole 2018, Acrylic Paint on Canvas, 24x36 $1000 Tom Wilke was born in 1946. From a young age he was involved in art one way or another, whether it was doing graphite drawings, soap carvings or furniture painting. However, recently, (the last 5 years or so) he started to take brush and paint to canvas and before long it became a life defining passion as opposed to a hobby. He works mainly in acrylics but also uses pastels and watercolors. Mostly self-taught, stylistically and technique wise he enjoys the challenges of photo realism but has tendencies towards more impressionistic renderings. Tom hails from the rolling hills of southern Ohio but has lived on the west coast of Florida for the last 21 years and draws inspiration from the lush landscapes and waterways that living in Florida affords. He has won awards and ribbons in various art show and competitions and has sold many of his works. Tom continues toward being the best he can be and aspires to the adage that ' art is ten per cent inspiration and ninety per cent perspiration.

Francine Wilson Community 2015, Acrylics on stretch canvas, 16X20 $375 I was born in Canada. My family immigrated to the United States to find work when I was two years old. I grew up speaking French at home and English at school. My mother was a member of the Marion family from Saint Damien in Quebec, Province, Canada. The original Marion ancestor literally cut down trees to create a road/homestead and also traded lye soap for furs and supplies with the Indian tribes on the St. Lawrence river. It is that family, the Marion side, that has always had artistic talent. I took an acrylics class in 2011(?) at Littleton High School adult night classes. I painted ‘Eternal Dance’ during that time. It has won 2nd prize at the Boxborough Country Fair. It also won 2nd prize in the Leominster Art Associations' art show. I took an ‘Introduction to Oil Painting’ at Assabet High School continuing education program with Lee Su d’Avalonia. I painted: 'Holy Ground', ‘Grist Mill Brook’ and 'Uninvited Guest’ were created. Most recently I took a portrait painting class at the Dunedin Fine Art Center with Markissia Touliatos and painted: Genesis and Annie with Nate. I also write poetry and short stories (fiction/supernatural). Creating, for me, is sort of a meditative experience. I either wake up in the night, or suddenly stop what I’m doing, and find myself painting or reciting lines. That is when I get the best results! Time flies by when one gets the compulsion to create!
