I discovered David Shillinglaw’s awesome paintings by chance the other day as I walked past a cafe near my house: I glanced in the window and was immediately spellbound. I went inside and fell in love with with his rough lettering, bold paint, abstract forms and use of wood. It seems he does a lot of murals, too, in various parts of the world.

Bill Morrison is preoccupied with damaged film. He tells his story using stressed and distorted footage. And it is beautiful every time. Sometimes there are two stories: the literal and the abstract. I like anything that tells two stories at once. He also collaborates with some heavy-hitting composers. But there could be none of that, just the organic permutations and visual exploration of film artifacts, and it would be enough for me.

Colorado-based artist Pard Morrison explores the intersections of the analog and the digital world. His artwork, featuring image pixels placed in natural landscapes, remind you of ‘systems in a flux’ and the constant changes in technical innovations we’re going through.

Chris Trueman’s work gives life to the beautiful balance between structure and chaos through his incredible abstract paintings. Imbued with color and depth, this Trueman show is one worth seeing.

Nicolas Monin-Baroille, aka the Unknown Being, is a digital abstract artist who has been working in the field of digital art for four years. Baroille makes a habit of applying his 3D and 2D forms to realistic and abstract compositions. The end result is pure eye candy.

By saying: ‘I love experimenting’, Lia Melia, like a Martha Stewart of Visual Arts, developed her personal medium for her creations over the years. And these amazing and haptic pieces and colour mixes are the outcome of using powder pigments and solvents which are baked onto aluminium or glass.

I contacted JMR after seeing one of his murals down in Oak Cliff in Dallas. The bold black line iconography caught my eye. His minimalist style, with primary colors intended to be appreciated from a distance, reminds me of the work of Joan Miro.

In 2011, artist Christianna Cassisa, created a series of paintings called The Place. In Cassisa’s words: ‘The Place exists inside and outside of each of us, meeting at the point of our inspired expressions’. Each painting is of a distant horizon. Albeit abstract, Cassisa evokes emotion through the unique color palettes used in each painting in the eight piece series.

Expeditions Without a Parachute is the next chapter in my art work. The opulent qualities of my oil paints, and surreal materials, bring dramatic ideas to life, like performers in an edge-of-your-seat show. Striking techniques and color dance and entertain the eye. These oil works offer a joyous, visual celebration from their depth and intense graphic beauty. But if you contemplate them further, there’s also an abstract-narrative that belongs to you as it unfolds in your imagination.

We could all use a little abstract painting in our lives, and Dale Frank’s abstraction carries on into their titles. Each painting comes with a very interesting and complex title that will have you looking twice at the image.

An example of such a title can be seen here: ‘She was always illogically quite amorous and horny during her Period. Thankfully she produced an dour odor, a smell caught between week old gazpacho and wet dead rodent always a few days prior, which was a kind of warning, a signal that triggered the self preservation tactics of her house mates’. Guess which image goes with that title?

From direct, urban, almost punk foundations, London-based artist Karl Bielik’s recent work has moved towards a more subtle and refined aesthetic. Brash combinations of found materials and industrial paints have given way to calculated mark making and a more sophisticated use of color. These messy, graphic oil paintings retain the energy of his earlier work but the literal and emotional darkness has become an implicit yet subtle undercurrent.

Kristine Moran’s Francis Bacon-esque paintings are abstracted just enough to obscure the dark, sensual, and supernatural trysts between nebulous, writhing figures.
