Sunday Selection-Steven Alexander

I have admired Steven Alexander's paintings for a long time. I am of course drawn to the luminous-mesmerizing color use and the lush tactile quality of the surfaces. Steven writes an informative art journal  www.stevenalexanderjournal.blogspot.com. He covers shows in NYC and his happenings in the studio.
Enjoy this Sunday and see more of Steven's bold work at www.stevenalexanderstudio.blogspot.com

A Tribute To Aqua-The Color of Paradise (2 of 2)-Stephanie Clayton

Check out part 2 of the online exhibition Stephanie Clayton has curated. She has included me with some really fantastic artists. It makes you want to find a body of cool water asap. Below is one painting that is featured in the exhibit by Steven Alexander. I have admired his work for some time. The beautiful layering and pops of color are quite stunning. I am drawn in by the bold colors in the middle but also equally engaged by the luminosity of the expansive textured blue space.
