etsy shop: bluesunlight
listing: aopaceo023
artist: Bluesunlight

Bluesunlight's aopaceo (acrylic on paper ACEO) paintings capture a moment of strong, aggressive exertion. Rendered as a visual carving of space against an empty, sterile white field, it's important to recall such dynamic forms slash about in a delicate 2.5 x 3.5" arena.

All at once these paintings are purposeful, yet natural. Bluesunlight's Etsy bio states, "So far these works are being generated using acrylic paint and fine gauge steel wire rolled, pushed, pulled, and slid horizontally across the page." So incidental elements of nature help develop details within the work while strong elements of control are clearly defined in the overall shapes.

I choose "aopaceo023" for this feature because I enjoyed it's architectural elements. Sure enough Bluesunlight works at an architectural firm by day. Ha. In fact, all his paintings have certain architectural undertones complemented by vigorous juts and swooshes of liquid paint.

etsy shop: lebusstudio
listing: CENTER OF CHAOS
artist: Cinda LeBus

From Cinda's Description for this listing:

CENTER OF CHAOS, by artist Cinda LeBus, is a digitally-rendered art print in vibrant warm tones. This stunning fractal image explores the false-dichotomy of order and chaos; the unpredictable path of the unknown merging with the absolute truth of stability and harmony in all things. This piece is an artistic interpretation of an archetype that is universal.


I like having Cinda's work follow Friday's feature of Las Vegas' Nay. It's quite a contrast. Though interestingly enough, both featured pieces from Cinda and Nay coincidentally have the same color palette.

etsy store: MoTowne
listing: original art
artist: Michael Richard Moses Towne Jr

Michael Richard Moses Towne Jr sounds like one interesting cat.

He has a fair amount of variety in his etsy shop from a painted animal skull (not for sale) to an Outsider-Artish-anguish-face painting to abstract, trippy, biomorphic paintings. It's the later that will be the focus here.

The tags for each of these paintings gives some great insight. Here's a taste: pop, funk, retro, mod modern, hip, surreal, blob, awesome, explosion, cupcake, glamour, dance floor, vans, vineyard, turkey, swirls, circles.

Each person will bring their own interpretation to the paintings, but I like the idea hinted by Micahel that they are exploding cupcakes.
