Elesavet Lawson

elesavetlawsonowl

What can I say except...WOW! Elesavet is an amazing artist out of Canada whose works are a mixture of surrealism and realism all at once. I've said it before and I'll say it again, use of color in design and art is as important as the design itself. Elesavet's use of color is dreamlike...simply fantastical. You can find her Owl Series available at Uppercase Gallery until January 15th, 2007. Priced at $250.00 CDN (that's $215.00 US) they're a steal! For those a little light in the wallet, Elesavet's work is also available for your IPOD at Gelaskins for $14.95. If you are interested in purchasing any other paintings of Elesavet's feel free to contact her via her website, www.elesavet.com. Enjoy!

Kathleen Lolley

kathleenlolley
Kathleen Lolley has produced some of the most creative works I've ever seen. Her fertile imagination composes images of innocence with an ever so subtle shadow of darkness looming about. Her use of color exudes warmth and cheerfulness, while her subjects sometimes confusingly conflict. Her work, to be clear, is fascinating.

If you'd like to know more about Kathleen Lolley you can visit her website here. Prints of her work are available at Art Star and Kopilot. She will be having a solo show in April at OKOK Gallery in Seattle, Washington. For all those persons lucky enough to live in Seattle I will be posting a reminder of this when the date gets closer. Enjoy!
