Now showing! “Abstract Reflections” by Carolyn Beyah
Free admission. The show runs through February.
Abstract art is Carolyn’s favorite style, whether it is objective or non-objective. She uses bright colors and mixed mediums in her paintings… acrylic paints, pastels, ink, and charcoal. For “Abstract Reflections”, Carolyn uses a visual language of forms, colors, and lines to create paintings with different degrees of independence from visual references to our lives and the world. Some of her paintings make statements regarding the state of our world and others are figurative, landscapes, ocean scenes and spiritual scenes. More>

Suzanne says, “My work is about introspection and bringing inner treasures outside. It’s tending to the moment and being with the flow of grace. To paint is to love again” a quote by Henry Miller, which has always moved me. It is a truth I live by literally. All the chaos and confusion in our daily lives, can be quelled with the simple and profound act of presence. Creativity is a result of that presence. More>

Carolyn says, “Abstractions in my compositions also depart from reality in depiction from imagery in my art. Most of my paintings come from my mind and soul, unless I am sketching a life drawing model or a real scene. A lot of times I do not know what I am going to paint when I approach that blank canvas. One circle or line can lead me into an entire painting. It’s amazing!
