Interaction of colors (Triptych) by Michael Wagner
My idea is to give viewers a new perspective on the world of colour.
Photography
Abstract by Jaismyne Shaw
Inspired by painting with no agenda, letting the paint lead and you follow. Trusting the process.
Acrylic paint on canvas
Smith-Corona typewriter by Phillip Donald Breske
Old typewriters are packed with amazing hardware. When viewed with a macro lens, the details are revealed.

The Petal Collection 3 by Darina Palmire
With this collection I wanted to show how clay can be delicate yet bold using various textured glazes and clay finishes. Depending on the spectator's imagination, the interpretation varies from sea corrals, flower petals, fish tails, to a contemporary abstract form.

Face me pop by Rose Derkey
The inspiration was to bring the pristine hybrid daylily forth with pops of color and suggest a theatrical presence facing me through the shapes and shadows of the compilation.
Photography
Imagination by Lydia Falletti
Just as the title is named Imagination, I followed my mind, heart, and eyes to lead me to the strokes of my brush.

Demi Spout by Kiah Manning
Half-formed, it teeters between chaos and control, destruction and beauty.
Oil on canvas
Videocall by Gabriela Fernández
The painting shows how I stayed connected with someone I love very much during the pandemic. I didn't know I had all these colors until she gave me the brushes.

This tight macro image highlights the intricate design and supreme cleanliness of the technology inside most computers.

Back to Chaos by Maria Leite
Current global context, wars, oppressive systems, and political turmoil served as inspiration for this abstract piece.
Acrylic and Oil Pastel on Paper
MID SUMMER by MICHELLE OCONIS
This piece represents how my body reacts to heat given my progressive form of Multiple Sclerosis.

The Petal Collection 2 by Darina Palmire

Sculpture
Church of the Little Flower, Coral Gables by Phillip Donald Breske
While attending a family christening, I spotted this display near the entrance of the church. The variation of light and shadow piqued my interest, especially where the candles' glow shows through the crosses.
Photography
Just Imagine by Sheila Young
My Imagination. I see visions that I just have to put on canvas. I love color and all the joy it brings to myself and others.
Acrylic
Wet paint by Michael Wagner
My idea is to give viewers a new perspective on the world of colour.
Photography
Lean Not Unto Thine Own Understanding by Tasha Strigle
This piece was created as an experiment with various drawing and painting media. I wanted to use abstract techniques and not think about a topic. I allowed each step of the process to guide the next step. The emergence of the final piece gave me the same feeling of developing photos in a darkroom. After completion, personal meaning began to develop from the interacting spaces within the design. Within the details I see the path of my story, my testimony, and my relationship with God.
Mixed Media
Behind the curtain by Lydia Falletti
Thoughts, that are not always revealed, a curtain of mystery
Acrylic
COLOR-VOIDED by MICHELLE OCONIS
This piece represents the shock and fear of the future I felt when given my diagnosis of my progressive Multiple Sclerosis.
INK ON SYNTHETIC PAPER
Honor by Christopher Hershberger
The virtue of honor. A pillar of masculine resilience against the tides of chaos. That strong backs might shoulder the responsibility of a higher good and lead others to their purpose.

Guts of a catalytic converter by Phillip Donald Breske
My curiosity was sated when I was able to tear out the insides from an old catalytic converter. The delicate matrix inside is full of interesting shapes and textures.

A VOID by MICHELLE OCONIS
This is the first digital colorization of my black and white original ink paining.
DIGITAL PAINTING OF MY ORIGINAL INK WORK
Melting ice by Phillip Donald Breske
A block of ice was placed on a hammock of thin plastic, then lit from above as it melted. Warm fingers accelerated the transformation from ice to water, and the shapes were captured with a macro lens as they emerged and vanished.
Photography
Fire Starter by Sarah Lajealle
This piece was not necessarily inspired by anything other than the curiosity to explore the movement of wet paint.
Acrylic
Colors on the Waters by Sheila Young
My Imagination. I see visions that I just have to put on canvas. I love color and all the joy it brings to myself and others.
Acrylic
Red Abstract by Natasha Allen
I have been inspired by Gerber's abstract art and the holiday season. I chose two primary colours and black and gold to create a contemporary loose watercolour artwork that reflects the seasonal mood and expresses by loose brush strokes the temporary season. I like to work in abstract art because I can reflect in a postmodern way how I feel and what I am experiencing.
