Expressionist Artist Brenda Clark, Suttons Bay Art Gallery

During a trip to Northern Michigan, I visited local artist, Brenda Clark's amazing art gallery.  Her work is wildly colorful and inspiring.  Reminiscent of Van Gogh's works, her expressionist style incorporates brilliant colors, dynamic brushstrokes, and rich textures.  Most of her works feature scenes and landscapes from Leelanau County in Northern Michigan.  Some additional pieces include settings from her home state of Missouri and Provence, France.

Paul Norwood Artist...

I recently discovered some interesting work by artist, Paul Norwood, as featured in Serena & Lily's online art bazaar.  His work is featured in galleries throughout the U.S. including New York, Boston, Charleston, and the Bay Area.  His technique is interesting in its fluid, organic nature.  He apparently works quickly, and has the ability to accurately portray landscapes, city, and beach scenes in a colorful and unique way.  I also love the way he incorporates the 'peek-through' warm orange/red tones to create an overall glow and warmth in his work.
